1. Upload
Add a piano recording or use link input below.
2. Worker verifies
The worker transcribes and verifies artifacts.
3. Review
Inspect Sheet Music, Numbered Notation, and Piano Roll.
4. Export
Download MIDI, MusicXML, PDF and more.
Start from the source you already have.
The public upload flow uses the same production job model as the workspace: private storage upload, queued worker processing, and result pages after verified artifacts are ready.
Paste a music link
YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok links are normalized and checked again by the worker before transcription.
Record in the browser
Capture a short idea, confirm the source rights, and send it through the same private upload path.
Real demo outputs
One transcription, three ways to inspect it
The same sample is split into three focused result views: Sheet Music, Numbered Notation, and Piano Roll.

01MusicXML / PDF
Sheet Music
The first output uses the same front-facing Sheet Music PNG so the notation itself is the product proof. Full OSMD rendering, playback, and signed downloads stay on completed result pages.
- What you see: a single front-facing staff-score image, not the full composite stage.
- Good for: judging whether the score is readable enough to keep reviewing.
- Boundary: AI draft output still needs human review before publication.
02Right-hand melody
Numbered Notation
The second output uses the right-hand Numbered Notation PNG for quick melody, meter, and phrase checks.
- What you see: 1=key, meter, tempo, bar lines, and the complete sample melody.
- Good for: singing through the line, checking melody, and teaching prompts.
- Boundary: it uses the right-hand melody, not a reduction of left-hand accompaniment.
Right hand54

03Falling view
Piano Roll
The third output uses the front-facing Piano Roll PNG: notes fall from top to bottom toward the keyboard, with teal right-hand notes and violet left-hand notes.
- What you see: pitch, duration, hand colors, and the bottom keyboard.
- Good for: checking rhythm density, note timing, and hand distribution.
- Boundary: full playback sync and preview limits still belong to the result page.

How it works
A simple path from audio to notation.
01
Upload
Choose a file, record audio, or paste a supported public music link.
02
Process
The Python worker converts audio to raw MIDI, then rebuilds readable piano notation.
03
Review
Open sheet music, right-hand Numbered Notation, piano roll, playback, and available downloads.
Multiple output formats, one verified result.
Song2Notation focuses on a useful score draft: readable enough for practice, structured enough to edit, and honest about where final engraving still matters.
Readable piano score
Production notation uses a readable normalizer after raw transcription so practice material is cleaner than raw MIDI dumps.
Right-hand Numbered Notation
Numbered notation is generated from the right-hand melody so the melody line stays readable.
Piano roll and playback data
The same score data powers a visual piano roll and synchronized playback on completed result pages.
Export-ready artifacts
Paid plans unlock PDF, MIDI, MusicXML, Numbered Notation, and Piano Roll access according to the plan.
Launch fit
Good first fit for teachers, learners, and creators.
Music teachers
Turn student recordings into draft notation for feedback, practice notes, and lesson follow-up.
Piano learners
Convert short phrases into sheet music and Numbered Notation for slower review and repeated practice.
Creators and arrangers
Capture a melody idea, export MusicXML or MIDI, then refine it in your notation or DAW workflow.
AI tool users
Use Song2Notation when you need structured notation outputs rather than only an audio summary.
Honest boundaries
What to expect from the first release.
AI draft, not final engraving
The result is meant for review, learning, arranging, and cleanup. Publication-level engraving still needs human editing.
Piano-first scope
The strongest path is piano and melody material. Dense mixes, vocals, drums, and noisy recordings may need cleaner input.
Link import
Supported public links are imported as audio before transcription; restricted content can fail at import.
Rights-aware workflow
The start flow asks users to confirm they own or have permission to transcribe the source.
