Eldoraudio has launched a new web tool that converts recorded guitar audio into MIDI files. Users simply drag an audio file into the portal, select the correct beats per minute, and the system processes the track. No software installation is required, and the service works anywhere with an internet connection.
How it works
The converter handles complex passages with the same approach as the company’s existing piano tool. It breaks down dense chords, isolates small grace notes, and adjusts velocity to match the original dynamics. Once the data is in MIDI format, musicians can edit the notes within their own digital audio workstation.
At present, the tool is optimised for cleaner sounds. This includes steel-string, nylon-string, clean electric, and jazz guitar. A version for distorted tones is scheduled for release later.
“Guitar is one of the hardest instruments to transcribe accurately, and most tools cut corners to get there,” says Daniel Johnson, founder of Eldoraudio. “Our piano converter has shown us that musicians notice the difference when accuracy is treated as non-negotiable, not an afterthought, down to details like pedal nuance. We held the guitar model to that exact same standard. Our mission is to turn audio into musical gold, and this is another step toward giving musicians full editable control over anything they play.”
The company offers other utilities on the same site, including a stem splitter and a vocal remover. Future updates will include a site for converting audio to sheet music and a broader Audio to MIDI function capable of handling any type of recording.
Johnson notes that the upcoming multi-instrument model might allow even field recordings of random sounds to be converted into MIDI data for creative purposes.
What it means
This update removes the barrier of needing specific transcription software to edit guitar parts. Musicians can now take a recording, strip it to MIDI, and rearrange the notes in their DAW without external plugins. The focus on accuracy suggests the output will be usable for professional editing rather than just rough sketches.
