Effortless Music Transcription: How to Transcribe Piano Recordings Easily (Full Transcript)

Speaker 1: Let's face it, transcribing music by ear is tough. Maybe you have an old recording of a piano and you just can't figure out what they play. So what do we do? Either you can go traditional and you sit down, listen to it over and over and over and over again, trying to transcribe it by ear until you realize you spent your whole day doing that. Or you can use the power of... So in this video, I will show you the easiest and fastest way on how to transcribe your music with absolutely zero effort. Alright, first off, you'll need your files that you want to transcribe. Over here I have a couple old recordings which sound a little like this... Beautiful. Next up, click on the first link that I've provided to you in the description below, which leads you to the Klang.io website. Now we'll scroll down a little until we find Piano to Notes and click on Learn More. And in this section down here, you can upload your files simply by dragging and dropping them into this little window right here. Now we'll add the title, recording by unknown and agree to the terms and conditions. And we can leave the additional information blank just as they are. And all that's left is click on Transcribe and we're done. Easy as that. So while the AI does its magic, I should also point out that you can also provide YouTube links instead of files, as you can see down here. Aside from Piano to Notes, there are other applications like Sync to Notes and Guitar to Tabs, which, as you might have already guessed, are for playing guitar or singing. And all these applications aren't just available for your browser, but also for Android and iOS. You can find links to all of the applications in the description below. And the transcription is done. Didn't even take a minute. Let's see the results. That seems pretty on point to me. Of course, you have to keep in mind that the AI sometimes makes mistakes, but we're constantly working on improving it. Now if that's all you need, you can click on Download and export the PDF. But wait, there's more. As you might have noticed, you can also transcribe more than 30 seconds and download further formats like MIDI and MusicXML when you upgrade to our Pro models. And since I'm happy with the first 30 seconds of the file, I'm going to log into my account and transcribe the full song. And here we are. Now we have access to the transcription of the whole song and we can download all the formats there are. Thank you very much for watching. If you have any questions, feel free to leave them in the comments. I'd be happy to answer them.
