Delivery Method:
Order Manager
Notes: Your completed transcription will be delivered directly through the order manager as digital files.

If you also purchased the MIDI File Export addon, the MIDI file will be included in the same delivery.

Full Description

If you have a melody stuck in your head, a recording you want to learn note by note, or a piece you need written down properly, this service turns any audio or video into clean, accurate sheet music, tablature, a lead sheet or a MIDI file — ready to read, practise, print or share.

Based in London and trained at music school, this transcriptionist works entirely by ear, inputting every note by hand. There are no automated tools cutting corners here. The result is a transcription that genuinely reflects what is being played, including nuance, rhythm and phrasing that software simply cannot capture.

**What is included in every tier:**
Lyrics can be included where relevant, the project file is delivered alongside the finished score, and unlimited revisions mean any part you are not fully satisfied with will be re-examined until it is right. If full accuracy cannot be achieved — for instance due to low-quality or inaudible audio — you will be told before work begins, never after.

**How it works:**
Simply place your order, then share your audio or video file (MP3 or similar) along with a brief note about the format you need (standard notation, tab, lead sheet, chords over lyrics, and so on). The transcriptionist will review it promptly and get to work. If anything needs clarifying, they will reach out via the order chat quickly — often immediately.

**Choosing the right tier:**
The entry tier suits a single monophonic instrument — a short, straightforward riff, melody or chord progression. The Standard tier adds a second monophonic instrument and a polyphonic instrument, covering intermediate pieces with more varied arrangements. The Full tier handles up to four monophonic instruments plus a polyphonic instrument and is designed for complex pieces with dense layering, fast tempos, syncopation or intricate chord progressions.

Not sure which tier fits your piece? Send a message with the file attached before ordering — you will receive a prompt, honest reply.

**Who this is for:**
Musicians who want to learn a favourite song exactly as recorded. Composers who need their ideas notated properly. Bands who want a reliable chart of an existing arrangement. Teachers and students who need a clean, readable score.

Every delivery reflects years of dedicated study and practice. Customers are nearly always satisfied on first delivery — and where they are not, the transcriptionist will make it right.

Frequently Asked Questions

As a general guide: if your piece has one simple melodic line or chord part, choose Essential. If it features two instrumental parts or adds a polyphonic element (e.g. piano with chords and melody together), choose Standard. If it is dense, fast, heavily layered or technically complex — multiple instruments, syncopation, irregular time signatures — choose Full. When in doubt, send a message with your file attached before ordering and you will receive an honest recommendation quickly.

An easy piece typically has a singable main motif, a basic chord progression and a straightforward rhythm — think Imagine by John Lennon or Redemption Song by Bob Marley. An intermediate piece has a longer, more developed motif, varied chord sequences across sections and some rhythmic complexity — along the lines of How Deep Is Your Love or Your Song. A complex piece features many notes, fast tempo, syncopation, shifting time signatures and difficult chord progressions — for example a solo guitar arrangement or a piece in the style of Joe Satriani's Summer Song.

An MP3 or similar audio file works perfectly. A video file or a link to an online video is also fine. The cleaner the audio, the more accurate the transcription. If the recording is low quality or certain parts are inaudible, you will be informed before work begins so you can decide how to proceed.

The transcription can be provided in standard notation, guitar or bass tablature, a lead sheet (melody plus chord symbols), or chords written over lyrics. Simply specify your preference when you place the order, or mention it in the requirements field.

Every tier includes unlimited revisions. If any part of the transcription does not match what you hear in the recording, flag the specific section in the order chat and it will be re-examined and corrected.

Yes. Add the Rush Delivery addon at checkout for a 24-hour turnaround on any tier. Alternatively, send a message before ordering with your file and your required deadline and a custom quote can be provided.

Entirely by ear, with every note entered by hand. The transcriptionist trained at music school and brings years of dedicated practice to each project. No automated transcription tools are used, which is what makes the result genuinely accurate rather than approximately close.

Your audio or video file (or a link to the recording), the notation format you prefer (tab, standard notation, lead sheet, etc.), and any specific notes about what you need — for instance, which instrument to focus on or whether lyrics should be included. The more context you give, the faster work can begin.
