Turning what we hear into notes on the piano using AI

[IvoryApp]

Ivory, is here to transcribe any piano piece for you!​

Hey soft.com.sg community,

My name is Marius, and as a musician and AI developer, I'm thrilled to introduce a project I've been passionately working on: Ivory.

Like many of you, I've often felt that spark of inspiration when hearing a beautiful piece of music, followed by the frustration of not being able to find the sheet music or spending hours trying to pick out the notes by ear. I built Ivory to solve exactly that problem.

So, what is Ivory?

It's a web-based tool that uses advanced AI to listen to any piece of music and automatically transcribe it into accurate piano sheet music. The goal is to take you from just listening to actively learning and playing, almost instantly.

It’s a simple, three-step process:

1. Upload or record your audio. This can be anything from a high-quality track to a quick voice memo of a piano idea.
2. Let Ivory's AI do the heavy lifting. It analyzes the recording to identify the melody, harmony, and rhythm.
3. Get your sheet music. You can immediately view and play back the score. Plus, you can export it as a PDF, MIDI, or MusicXML file to use however you like.

Why I think you'll find it useful:

I designed Ivory to be a powerful practice and learning companion for pianists of all levels.

• Save countless hours: Stop the difficult work of transcribing by ear. Get a score in moments and spend your time playing instead.
• Learn any song: Finally get the sheet music for that incredible cover, rare recording, or unpublished song you love.
• Improve your skills: Use the interactive player to slow down tricky passages, loop sections, or isolate hands for practice. Seeing the notes as you hear them is also a fantastic boost for your ear training.
• A tool for creativity: Use it as a starting point to create your own arrangements. You can easily change the key or tweak the notes to fit your style.

As the creator, I'm constantly working to refine the AI to make the transcriptions even more precise and nuanced. The tool is always evolving, and user feedback is a huge part of that.

I'd be glad if you gave it a try and let me know what you think.
