    • NOTE: MidiNotate is not a MIDI sequencer or notation editor.

      Although MidiNotate does an amazingly accurate job in transcribing MIDI files to notation, it will infrequently make mistakes that can be detected and corrected only with the judgment of a musician. Therefore, MidiNotate offers easy-to-use tools for correcting notation errors. Please note, however, that MidiNotate's editing features are largely limited to correcting the notation. MidiNotate does not support editing of the underlying MIDI notes and events, nor the adding of new notes or tracks.
