Hi

This list is specifically for discussing the Audacity implementation of
the Nyquist programming language (Audacity includes a number of 
Nyquist plug-ins and many more can be downloaded). 

Converting a recording of notes being played (like WAV) into a
notes-based format like MIDI means detecting the pitch of all 
the parts of the recording. Except possibly for recordings of a 
single part, this is beyond the ability of most current techniques.
There are some programs that attempt it listed below. Have not 
checked all the links very recently, but Google if any links are
dead. 

Here are our Audacity lists:

-users list is the most appropriate for general interest, but at the 
moment it is not working properly I'm afraid.
