How to Make Sheet Music From Recording

If you are attempting to make sheet music from a recording, it can be done by using music creation and editing software. Software such as Notation Composer and Notation Music enable you to load music files onto the interface and transform them into sheet music. All music recordings must be in MIDI or RAR audio format in order to be imported into the software. Single channel WAV and MP3 files are also supported, however; the sheet music transcribing feature is not guaranteed to be applied.
