What is Kodai?
Kodai is a mobile application designed to simplify the music creation workflow for musicians. Utilizing state-of-the-art AI technology, specifically Magenta for music processing, the tool accurately transcribes audio recordings of guitar and piano performances into MIDI files. This conversion process significantly reduces the time spent on manual music notation, allowing users to focus more on their creative songwriting.
The application allows users to record directly using their phone or import existing audio files. Once transcribed, the resulting MIDI files can be edited directly within the app using the included MIDI editor. Furthermore, Kodai outputs files in the standard MIDI format, ensuring compatibility with virtually any digital audio workstation (DAW) for further refinement and project integration. The platform also includes helpful practice tools like a metronome, tuner, interactive circle of fifths, and a touchscreen piano.
