Experimenting with Melodyne DNA To MIDIConversion

[Simeon Amburgey 505]

I just published a video demonstrating how you can leverage Melodyne’s Direct Note Access to MIDI to extract a piano performance and use it to play various samples piano libraries (in this case  NOIRE and UNA CORDA). Amazing potential! Enjoy.

Thanks for posting the video Simeon.  The timing is so strange as I am currently performing a similar experiment to learn about using Melodyne's audio to midi engine.

How well does DNA work for picking drum tracks out of an existing, full song? I.E. if I upload "The Trooper" from Iron Maiden, will it give me the MIDI notes so I can plug that into Superior Drummer?

Thanks!

if you have the Melodyne studio version it might be easier to identify the drums but there are limited to what is can do by itself. once thought - use RX-7 (or RX-8) to rebalance to drums (mostly) then use Melodyne to extract the notes (although you'll probably notice the Melodyne's percussion algorithm has limits because of non-pitched material, still worth a try). another option is import the file into Band In A Box and see if it can extract an equiv drum performance...

Will the Drum Replacer add-on that is available for download with Cakewalk by BandLab work?
