- ✓Isolated instruments give the cleanest MIDI output

Less ideal

About the Audio to MIDI Converter
By Ismail Farooq, founder of SongUp AI · Updated 25 October 2026
Completely free: free account, no card needed, no credits, no limit. It runs in your browser, so your audio stays on your device.
The Audio to MIDI Converter turns recorded audio into editable MIDI notes. It is powered by Basic Pitch, Spotify’s open-source note-transcription model, which detects note pitch, timing and pitch bends. Download a standard .mid file and open it in FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro or any other DAW.
The model is small (under 1 MB) and runs entirely in your browser. Solo instruments and single melodic lines convert most accurately; full mixes with many instruments produce busier, less precise MIDI.
What you can use it for
- ✓Turn a sung or hummed melody into MIDI to play with any virtual instrument
- ✓Transcribe a guitar or piano part you recorded
- ✓Extract a bassline or lead line from an isolated stem
- ✓Speed up writing sheet music from a recording
Common questions, answered
Frequently asked questions
How do I convert audio to MIDI for free?
+
Upload the recording (MP3, WAV or M4A) here. Basic Pitch, Spotify’s open-source note-transcription model, detects the notes, timing and pitch bends in your browser, and you download a standard .mid file that opens in FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro or any other DAW. A solo instrument or a single melody converts most accurately. Free with a free account.
Why is my MIDI messy?
+
Full mixes with many instruments produce busy MIDI. Solo instruments and single melodies give the cleanest notes; separate the song with the Stem Separator first and convert one stem at a time.
Can it convert a full song to MIDI?
+
It will produce MIDI from a full mix, but the result is much cleaner if you first isolate one instrument with the Stem Separator.
Which DAWs work with the MIDI file?
+
Any DAW that imports standard MIDI files, including FL Studio, Ableton Live, Logic Pro, Cubase, Reaper and GarageBand.
Does it capture pitch bends and vibrato?
+
Yes, Basic Pitch can output pitch-bend information along with the notes.
Which formats can I upload?
+
MP3, WAV and M4A.
Do I need an account?
+
Only a free one. It is completely free with a free account: no credits and no limit. It runs in your browser, so your audio never leaves your device.
