While SaxConvert is one of the most accurate tools for automatically transcribing solo saxophone performances into sheet music, it doesn’t guarantee perfect results every time. To achieve the best possible transcription, be sure to follow these recommendations:
1) Transcribe only solo saxophone recordings
SaxConvert performs best when the input audio contains only saxophone. Avoid importing songs that include other instruments, vocals, or backing tracks, as they may interfere with transcription accuracy.
Recommended types of recordings include:
🔹 Solo saxophone performances (alto, tenor, soprano, etc.)
🔹 Studio or clean live recordings
🔹 Jazz ballads, études, or classical pieces for unaccompanied saxophone
2) Provide a high-quality audio file
The better the audio quality, the more precise the transcription. Avoid using files that contain:
❌ Crackling or background noise
❌ Overlapping instruments or excessive audio effects
❌ Distorted or low-resolution recordings
3) Avoid overly complex or fast passages
Extremely fast runs, altissimo sections, or heavily ornamented phrases may challenge the transcription model. For best results, choose pieces with clear melodies and moderate tempo.
4) Enter your song’s musical information
Before starting the transcription, you can improve results by entering some basic musical info:
✅ Time signature (e.g., 4/4, 6/8)
✅ Tempo (BPM)
Providing this context helps SaxConvert better structure the score and align the rhythms accurately.
