If only that were possible! Everybody and his dog has been wishing for that for oh like forever. Have a record of some famous group and extract all the cool licks. YESSS!

Uh, NOOO. Computers are not easily there yet. Melodyne is a tool for converting audio to midi and then the midi can be used for notation. Melodyne has different versions, the basic one is for single sounds so if a song is just solo singing or someone playing single note lines on a guitar or horn then yes you can do it. If the audio file is a full band or a chording instrument like guitar strums or piano then you have to use the full version which I think is about $400. It's much harder for multitrack polyphonic stuff so all I can say is you would have to try the demo and see just how accurate it is.

There's a bunch of Melodyne vids on Youtube check them out. Other than this I don't know of anything else commercially available that can extract notation from an audio file.
