Generate Sheet Music from Audio

Go from a recording to printable notation. NutifAI transcribes the audio, engraves the notes onto staves, and exports PDF, MIDI, MusicXML, and LilyPond source so you can print, practice, or keep editing in your favorite notation software.

Upload a song — it's free to start

Supported formats: MP3, WAV, FLAC, M4A, AAC, OGG (Max: 50MB)

What you get

  • Engraves transcribed notes into readable notation with tempo and key signatures.
  • Exports engraved sheet music in PDF, MIDI, MusicXML, and LilyPond source.
  • Handles instrument-specific notation for Piano, Guitar, Bass, Drums, Cello, and Trumpet.
  • Works from uploaded audio files and follows the deployment's supported instrument settings.
  • Review detected notes before export: inspect suspicious suggestions or scan every note, then audition and correct the canonical transcription.

Practice with the visualization

After generating a compatible generated visualization, open it in Practice Mode to practice difficult sections with manual A/B loops and playback speed control.

  • Follow the visualization inside the Practice Mode window.
  • Control audio and visualization playback independently.

Score visualizations can also loop individual measures or contiguous measure ranges when measure information is available.

Frequently Asked Questions

It can attempt any song, but results vary with the recording. Solo instruments and clear melodies produce the most readable scores; dense mixes benefit from isolating one instrument first with stem separation.

Yes. Alongside PDF and MIDI, NutifAI can export MusicXML, which opens in MuseScore, Finale, Sibelius, Dorico, and most other notation editors.

AI transcription is a strong starting point, not a finished score. Clean recordings of a single instrument transcribe far better than dense, heavily produced mixes, and you should expect to tidy up timing and the occasional wrong note afterwards.

Piano, Vocals, Drums, Bass, Guitar, Cello, and Trumpet get dedicated handling, and other pitched instruments can be transcribed as standard notation.
