What is Basic Pitch?
Basic Pitch provides a straightforward solution for converting audio recordings into MIDI files. Users can either record audio directly using their computer's microphone or upload existing audio files (like WAV or MP3). The tool is designed to process recordings of single instruments, such as piano, guitar, or vocals.
Upon processing the audio, the tool generates a MIDI file that accurately represents the musical notes and includes pitch bend information. This generated MIDI file can be easily downloaded and imported into popular digital audio workstations (DAWs). This allows musicians and producers to fine-tune the MIDI data, correct any inaccuracies, or use it as a foundation for new musical arrangements. This tool is offered free of charge by Spotify.
