Omar, This is nothing new. There are several programs that can convert solo instruments to a MIDI file -- note that I said solo. Whenever there is a combo the recognition software has an almost impossible job to distinguish which of many sounds to consider for conversion and which voice to send it to. So for standard music it does not work well, as I've found in the past. Perhaps this new program has more adjustments in it to help distinguish which tone or timbre is to be used in the conversion. It would have to know that it should only pick an alto sax tone amongst many others like bass, drums, vocal, horns, piano, guitar, etc. You get the point I think. Without adjusting things it would not do a good job out of the box. Why not send Rui your sample file and see if he/she can do something with it?

Well, i am adjusting several settings that you find with tab key. Then, i export as midi, and check the result. with down and up keys you make percentage modifications, plus choose the type, etc... When you say music file, you mean a wav file or mp3 file? works with both, though, works better with Wav files. better the source , better the final midi! were you able to export as a midi file? and, Nothing?
