An excellent article. Thanks for all of the screen captures, and inserted YouTube instructions. A picture speaks a thousand words, and this has made it so easy to follow.
Great effort.
Thanks again!

Joanne, You've done a great job with this article. Kudos to you  For those who read your blog and don't have Melodyne, there is a feature in Realband that will also convert a single note audio melody to MIDI. It's found under "Edit | MIDI" and is called "Pitch to MIDI convert (current audio track)". I've used this a couple of times over the years and it gives pretty good results. I don't know how it compares to Melodyne, though. I'm looking forward to your next article now. I enjoy reading what you put together. You've got a knack for interesting writing. All the best, Noel

This is SO cool that you took the time to post this! I've thought along these lines many times, and even tried voice to midi with not so great results.
I never had considered instrument to midi in melodyne before though! I can't wait to try it!
Great info, and well explained! Thanks Joanne!

I fought myself through a similar process using the trial version a couple of years ago. I didn't have neither time nor means to write such an excellent How-to covering this process.
Thank you.

My absolute pleasure Trevor, Jacko, Charlie, Callie. Steve, Caaron, ghinch,and Noel.
I enjoy writing these blogs so am delighted that some are finding them useful.
Next month I will think about writing a post about the same process but using the RealBand wave to midi converter rather than melodyne.

Hi Joanne
Great post and thanks again for taking the time.
I have since used the pitch to midi converter again with mixed results one was accurate and the other was far off.My singing was way off it has to be said whether it effected the result or not I dont know.I remember similar results last year and I wasnt sure whether I used it correctly.I think the Melodyne proceedure detailed by you looks very successful,
Thanks Hugh

Thanks Hugh Thanks for this Hugh. I will try out the RealBand pitch to midi and melodyne for the same (tuned) vocal and let you know my findings.

I think I've got a demo version of Melodyne someplace I've yet to really have any sort of decent look at. This just be the push  p.s. and for Joanne: The quickest outline of the midi concept I've used to explain it, that generally translates very well, is: Midi is a bit like those "paint by the numbers" things that everyone seems to have got as a kid, only with musical elements (note pitch, length etc) instead of colours.

Monaural transfer tunes in wav simply by Melodyne essential, which is included in the price and facilities at about 10 DAW programs. Joanne has Melodyne Studio 4, which is now the highest form all functions of this application, among others, can convert into MIDI for Polyphonic instruments (guitar, piano). Both applications (essential and studio 4) can do it more example. Editing intonation singing and not only that, but in wav works with him as with notes in midi, you can add other voices from sung voice, where the intervals between the votes for individual notes by their liking. Great application in combination of great applications BIAB 2017. Sorry for my the English because of a text written in Czech I transmit through Google Translate to English and my English skills enough to control and better styling.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
