    melodyne it's good but when import to midi if the audio has fx (slide,bending, legato) it doesn't apply in the midi converted file.

    Analog is fuzzy wavy stuff. Midi is bits and bops. You can't just plug one directly into the other. It's a really difficult thing for a program to do, to analyze audio and attempt to turn it into midi. Especially if you're talking about multitrack audio. Melodyne and similar programs took engineers countless hours to create. No program can do this 100% accurately. You will have to go in and manually edit tracks if you want them to be right. You can't just route your audio input to midi, it doesn't work like that. Although once I hooked up an piezo element to a drum brain and tapped on it to trigger a midi drum note... but that's not going to help you. ;^)

    Try Widisoft Audio To Midi on Widisoft.com. This program specializes on that. There's a standalone version and a plugin. Also a pro version where you can edit the midi notes and a standard version. Might be interesting for you and it is one of the most advanced approaches for this task.

    It can be done in a manner similar to Melodyne in Variaudio in Cubase Pro (v. 7 and later), and in Flex Pitch in Logic Pro X.

    Thank you all for great tips, it seems that MELODYNE option is acceptable.

    No, I tried Midi guitar 1, but she is insensitive to guitar chords.

    Yeah, if you're wanting to convert guitar input into midi there are different options, but chords aren't going to be completely right without a midi pickup on the guitar. Whether it's a program or that G2M mentioned above... see how he was playing monophonic lines? With a midi pickup it detects (either through vibration or optically) the notes being played on each individual string, so a chord you play on the guitar will be the same chord on a piano or whatever. But any algorithm that tries to analyze the chord AFTER the fact (instead of a guitar midi pickup) is going to be hearing a wash of the notes mixed together with harmonics and overtones. I have an old fashioned Roland GK2A mounted to a piece of junk Squire guitar (I use only for midi) running into an old Roland GI-10 for midi. It's old school but it works. There are better products now but they are very expensive. I got these used for cheap about 10 years ago.

    the version 2 is veeeery accurate than the 1 you can download the trial and see, if you not have to buy it you can use loopmidi to vinculate the program with your daw for recording midi or wait until r2r release the crack XD
