What can the Apps do? #

The Klangio Apps are focused around Automated Music Transcriptions. In other words, you can upload music, use a YouTube Link or record your instruments and the Klangio AI will listen to your music and generate sheet music for your specific instrument. You can then play back the transcription as notes or as a pianoroll, edit it and download it in multiple formats. Each App comes with its own set of features, find out more about what music you can transcribe with Klangio here.

You can start free demo transcriptions with any Klangio apps with just a couple clicks. Simply click on the app name below to get started:

Klangio Transcription Studio – Transcribe multiple instruments from any song into notes and TABs.

What is the difference between the Klangio Apps? #

Apps for Single Instruments / Instrument Groups: #

These apps are designed for instrumentalists who are solely interested in transcribing notes for a specific instrument. They are more lightweight and easy to operate for this task. These apps include:

Klangio Transcription Studio & Plugin #

The Klangio Transcription Studio & Plugin apps can transcribe multiple instruments at once and can create notes for each of them separately. The Transcription Studio App is available in your browser to generate sheet music, while the Transcription Plugin can be downloaded and used in your DAW or as a standalone for Windows and Mac.

Scan2Notes #

Scan2Notes does not transcribe audio into sheet music, but can scan sheet music (an image or PDF file) and convert it into a digital format which you can play back, edit and download again.

Melody Scanner #

Melody Scanner is our legacy app, which is not focused on transcribing specific instruments, but instead generate arrangements and lead sheets from any song.

What can I do with an Automated Music Transcription? #

You can use the notation to play along to your favorite song with an instrument, to write down your own compositions, or to modify the notation to use it in your own music. You can of course download your transcriptions in many different formats. The possibilities are endless 😉

Where do I Start? #

Using the apps is really simple, and transcribing a piece of music just takes a couple clicks. A good way to start is to transcribe your favorite song from YouTube. Simply install one of the apps on your phone or get started right away at our homepage for free!
