from cd to abc

does anyone know wich programe might convert music on cd into abc notation, if you give in the bell note of the tune from the cd.
if so, is there a slowdowner and pitchchanger
in that programe aswell?

Hmm, no idea whether this sort fo software exists, but what I do is lookup the tune on JC’s ABC tunefinder - they’re usually there. Actually I use sheetmusic rather than ABC, but that’s there too.

As for speederup and slowerdown, there’s been threads about this before, so you may have some luck with a search through the archives.

Good luck! Martin

Copy the CD track onto yer HD.

Convert it with e.g. MusicMatch (free) from
mp3 to wav.

Then you need a prog’ that converts wav files into midi (costly - if anyone finds a freebie, please post :slight_smile: ) sometimes available for a limited time trial for free.

Then use midinotation to print out the score!

Da-da! (doh-doh, ray-ray, me-me etc)

Need I always say the obvious. You have the tools for the job, ears and the stuff located in between them.

All the equipment you need: ears, brain and the roni music amazing cd slow downer. =)

thank ye all for all the best info you can imagine! words can’t tell how much i appriciate all this. i’ll start with roni’s slowdowner.

GoldWave will perform the slowdown function, plus lots of other stuff (including MP3 to WAV conversion, etc.) for about US$40. Fully functional trial version is available.
