Can audio vocal tracks be converted to MIDI files? I'd like to be able to convert recorded vocal tracks to MIDI files so I can use Synthesizer V vocaloids to sing the same melody and harmony lines...is this possible?

Dan, under the audio tab is an audio transcribe option that will convert monophonic audio files to MIDI. I have no experience with this as I use Melodyne as I have found out through experience that Melodyne produced the best results.

Another program, Song Master Pro, is able to isolate vocal and other parts into stems and then export the MIDI. I’ve only experimented with this a few times and there are some alignment and timing considerations, but at least it’s possible using this or the methods above. We used to say about audio that you can’t unbake the cake, but now to some extent you can.

If you update to the latest version of Synth V, that can now transcribe, too. Yesterday, a friend of mine in a local songwriting group was telling just how impressed with it he was.

To update the software...

1) Click on the cloud icon.
2) Click on Check Update.
3 Select Synth V program.
4) Click on Update

There are many tools that can do this with varying results. Most can handle a monophonic melody pretty well including BIAB.

I use Digital Performer, Melodyne Studio and a few AI tools to tackle complex files.

YES. This is available directly in Synth V. Simply grab the latest BETA version. Not only does it grab the notes rather accurately, it grabs the words as well. You might have to tweek the words a bit but yep.... it's all there and works fairly well.

Edit: It works best on a solo vocal track. You should have the vocal on it's own track for the best results. Regarding the harmony... after you have SV do it's thing to give you the track.... simply drop it into BB and use the harmony function to generate the harmony tracks. Understand that you can also duplicate the SV track and then move it to a harmony and edit the outlier notes manually as well. I have used both methods depending on what I wanted to accomplish. You can also then take the BB created tracks and run them back through SV to get the midi and use a different voice to add more realism rather than having the same voice on the harmony. Lots of different options.
