It would certainly be really cool if there was the possibility of converting the real tracks that RB generates into their exact note for note midi equivalent. Yes, yes, yes..... that would open the door to being able to use really nice sounding samples for the instruments as opposed to having to use the audio as it was recorded. Especially if the audio had to be transposed and then shrunk or stretched to fit the requirements of the song. The artifacts generated in the process can seriously degrade the audio.

I've got quite a few examples I can point out in some of my earlier work. I have learned how to get around that or when I can't I switch to plan "B".

If you have Melodyne, you can, depending on the version of Melodyne, convert the audio into midi. I have the Editor version, but to be totally honest, I have not yet used it to do an audio to midi conversion. I should try that one of these days. I've seen the tutorials on it and I think the drums would be a superb way to use Melodyne in that fashion.

Note to self: plan to do this soon. Now I have 2 things I want to experiment with.... maybe if I have time today, it would be a great experiment to run.


EDIT: Several hours later.... ummmmmm... I must not be holding my mouth right because none of that worked.

You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both.

The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.
