Compose MIDI music simply by singing or playing any instrument
Do you want to use your analog instrument as a MIDI controller but don't want to pay for an expensive MIDI pickup?
Have you ever been struck in a great moment of inspiration and recorded a great new idea for a song or a hot new lick, but now can't remember what notes you played?
Are you a music teacher who needs an easier way to write down a practice sequence for your student?
Or, are you a music copyist who is looking for a simpler alternative to playing an audio recording of a song over and over to pick out the notes and write them down?
Electronic equipment and computer software have been available for many years to record music in the form of a MIDI file so it could later be automatically converted into notation, played back using the sounds in your sound card or MIDI-enabled musical instruments, edited in a sequencer, or used on Web pages as a space-saving alternative to audio files. The catch is that the music has to be entered by hand or "played in" on a MIDI-enabled instrument, so you have to know how to play the song in order to create the MIDI file.
A few products have been recently developed that will allow you to sing or play a non-MIDI instrument, determine the notes you played, and write them to a MIDI file or control another instrument. The catch here, of course, is that these products can only recognize songs containing a single instrument or played monophonically -- one note at a time. That's fine if you sing solo or play a solo on an instrument such as a flute or horn.
However, most prerecorded WAVE, MP3, and WMA music contains several instruments playing polyphonically. Attempts have been made over the last 25 years to create an automatic music recognition system that recognizes multi-instrument polyphonic audio files, for example:
Chords
Music played by a group of people such as a band or orchestra
One person playing an instrument that produces more than one note at a time, such as a guitar or piano
Unfortunately, this dream has proved to be elusive. If you wanted polyphonic WAVE, MP3, WMA, or CD files to be converted to MIDI, you simply had no alternative but to succumb to the often tedious and time-consuming task of picking out the notes yourself, time that could be better spent on more creative endeavors.
Finally, the result of a spark of a dream and many years of research, Innovative Music Systems, Inc. has created the world's first and only software capable of multi-instrument, polyphonic WAVE to MIDI and MP3 to MIDI conversion. IntelliScore comes in two editions:
Ensemble Edition: WAVE to MIDI, MP3 to MIDI converter incorporating Innovative Music Systems' breakthrough multiple-instrument recognition technology. IntelliScore Ensemble listens to a musical audio file comprised of several different instruments and converts it to a file containing the notes played, broken down by instrument.For more information, read the full Ensemble Edition FAQ. IntelliScore Ensemble also works on single-instrument music, played polyphonically or monophonically.
Polyphonic Edition: All the great features of the Ensemble Edition, except it is limited to recognizing single-instrument WAVE, MP3, and CD files, played polyphonically or monophonically. This bargain priced edition is perfect if you work with single-instrument music.

Convert live audio to MIDI in 3 easy steps:
1. Select one of the predefined instrument templates or create your own with the easy-to-use wizard.
2. Connect your instrument or a microphone to the input on your computer's sound card and set the volume level.
3. Begin singing or playing your instrument. You are now controlling your synthesizer or recording into your sequencer in realtime. You can even play several notes at the same time, such as chords!
Convert audio to MIDI in 3 easy steps:
1. Simply copy a recording of guitar, voice, etc. into the computer from an audio CD, a tape recording, an existing MP3, WAVE, or WMA file, or other audio source. You can also record directly into intelliScore. The music can even contain several notes at the same time, such as chords!
2. Follow the instructions in the easy to use wizard. IntelliScore music recognition software will transcribe your WAVE, MP3, WMA, or CD file to a MIDI file, ready for cleanup through a sequencer.
3. Then, open the MIDI file in the included Anvil Studio or your favorite sequencer or notation program to: Play it... Notate it... Print it**... Transpose it... Change instruments... It's now a MIDI file -- you can do whatever you want with it.
** Printing from the included Anvil Studio requires optional Print Sheet accessory.
Uses for intelliScore
Prerecorded music. Helps you figure out the notes, chords, and key present in prerecorded WAVE, MP3, and WMA files and CDs, especially when you don't know (or don't remember) how to play it. In conjunction with sequencer or notation software such as the included Anvil Studio, you can view and edit notation from the generated MIDI files.
Analog instruments. Use your analog musical instrument as a realtime MIDI controller or record directly into sequencers. Effects such as pitch bend, vibrato, tremolo, and portamento are faithfully recreated when the audio is monophonic. Save the expense of MIDI pickups!
Do the impossible. Once your WAVE, MP3, WMA, or CD files are converted into MIDI, you can do things that are impossible with audio files, such as changing individual notes and swapping instruments.
Ringtones. You can use MIDI files generated by intelliScore to create your own custom ringtones for your cell phone.
Remove vocals. Helps remove vocals from stereophonic WAVE, MP3, WMA, or CD files for karaoke singing.
Chord names and key. IntelliScore recognizes 144 different chord names based on the notes in your WAVE, MP3, WMA, or CD files, as well as the overall key, and writes this information to generated MIDI files.
Find the beats. If your music contains percussion only, intelliScore can create a MIDI file that captures the rhythm.
Save space. Share your ideas with others via the Internet. MIDI files improve download time and save space compared to WAVE, MP3, and WMA files.
