01 / START WITH AUDIO

Bring in your isolated piano

Choose an isolated piano part, without drums or vocals. This focused analysis does not separate instruments. For a full mix, use Song to Chords instead. The guide estimates major and minor chords; it is not piano sheet music or a note-for-note transcription.

BEFORE YOU ANALYZE0.25 credit per track

Choosing a file is free. This analysis runs chord detection on the isolated piano recording you provide; it does not separate a full song. You need a signed-in account with 0.25 credit available, charged when processing starts. Your result and available chord files can then be viewed and downloaded without another charge. Have a full mix? Use Song to Chords.

HEAR A PREPARED EXAMPLE · NO CREDIT NEEDED

Isolated piano demo

Play a prepared isolated piano stem, then look at the kind of simplified chord sequence this workflow estimates. These labels were prepared in advance, not analyzed from your upload, and should be checked by ear. Your own isolated recording uses focused CPU detection. Demo audio credits and source licenses.

PIANO AUDIO GUIDE

From piano recording to chord sketch

Bring the piano by itself

Upload an isolated piano recording, not a full band mix. The detector analyzes the audio you provide; it does not isolate piano from other instruments.

Use the guide as a starting point

Read the timed chord estimates, print the PDF, or edit the chord MIDI in your DAW. These are simplified major/minor labels, not a transcription of every note or a finished score.

Only have a full song?

Use Song to Chords for a whole mix. If you need the piano audio itself, the Piano Extractor is a separate tool.

03 / KEEP GOING

Build around your chords

Your chord guide stands on its own. You can reopen this result here or in Studio Results while it is retained. To analyze a full mix and audition cleared catalog sounds around its progression, use Song to Chords.

Open Song to Chords
Chord labels are estimates from the uploaded audio, not guitar tabs, piano sheet music, or note-perfect transcription. The chord guide simplifies complex harmony and should be checked by ear. This upload workflow does not run the HCQT model described in our research benchmark. Analysis does not establish copyright ownership or clearance.
