Even if you follow all our best practices, OrganConvert may still produce some transcription errors. Automatic organ transcription is a complex process, and issues like wrong notes, missing harmonies, or timing inaccuracies can occasionally occur.

Since OrganConvert generates standard sheet music, it’s important to carefully review your transcription to ensure it matches your expectations and performance.

To correct errors, here are your best options:

1) Instantly edit your sheet music in our in-app editor (Premium Only)

If you’ve subscribed to a plan and transcribed a full track (not just the free 30-second preview), you now have access to our built-in sheet music editor right after your transcription is complete.

With this editor, you can:

- Visually correct wrong notes directly on the digital sheet music.

- Add or remove notes, adjust durations, time signatures, and dynamics.

- Play back your transcription using realistic sounds.

- Print your final sheet or export it as PDF, MIDI, or MusicXML.

- Work interactively on desktop, tablet or smartphone, without installing anything.

This feature is seamlessly integrated into the sheet music view and requires no software download or file export.

⚠️ Please note: This in-app editing tool is only available for full transcriptions done with a paid plan. Free 30-second previews are view-only and cannot be edited inside the app.

🎹 2) Choose another version of the piece

If you’re not attached to a specific performance, try using a different version of the same piece.

For better accuracy:

✅ Use a recording with a clear, solo organ performance

✅ Avoid versions recorded in poor acoustics or with overlapping ambient sounds

✅ Select a version with simplified registration (not too many simultaneous voices)

💡 Tip: Always use the 30-second free trial to preview the accuracy of the transcription before converting an entire piece.

✏ 3) Manually correct the remaining errors in the sheet music

If you want to keep a specific version of the piece, the best approach is to edit the MIDI file manually to adjust note timing, dynamics, and voice structure.

Most MIDI editors and score editors allow you to:

✅ Fix note durations and rhythmic inconsistencies

✅ Separate voices (left hand, right hand, pedal)

✅ Add or adjust dynamics and articulation markings

Here are some free tools that can help you edit your MIDI files or sheet music:

• Aria Maestosa – basic MIDI and score editing

• Signal – intuitive interface for refining MIDI sequences

• MuseScore – ideal for editing and exporting sheet music in PDF and MusicXML

• Flat.io – online score editor with MIDI import/export and sharing capabilities

Once your MIDI file is corrected, you can export it as PDF sheet music, using MuseScore or Flat.io. These tools let you visualize, edit, and print the corrected organ score.

🎼 4) Transcribe your piece again, filling in the musical information

To improve accuracy, you can enter musical details before the transcription:

✅ Time signature (4/4, 3/4, etc.)

✅ BPM (tempo)

This helps OrganConvert refine the structure and timing of your sheet music.
