Song to Timpani MIDI
Turn a song into timpani MIDI you can edit. Upload MP3, WAV, M4A or FLAC, leave timpani selected, check the pitched hits on the piano roll, then drop the .mid into your DAW.
Hear the timpani, see the timpani MIDI
Play the source beside the piano roll. Pitched hits are easier to trust when you hear the same beat before export.

Reading the MIDI…
Timpani MIDI for the pitched hits you heard
Timpani-only hard mask
This landing opens Audio to MIDI with timpani already chosen. MIDI stays on pitched timp hits — not a drum kit.
Pitched hits for a timpani track
Download the unquantized .mid for a timpani library. Set tuning and roll timing so the cue lands with authority.
When the timpani is buried
Isolate timpani with Stem Splitter first if the orchestra is dense, then upload that stem here.
Not kit drums
Kick/snare/hat grooves belong on the drum MIDI page. This landing is pitched timpani only.
How to turn a song into timpani MIDI
From the timp take you have to pitched MIDI you can rewrite.

Preferred DAW import — History surfaces the unquantized transcription MIDI first. Drop it into Ableton, Logic, FL Studio, or similar.

Tune rolls on your timpani library
Load the .mid on a timpani library, then set tuning and roll timing for the cue.
Clearer timpani audio, cleaner timpani MIDI
If the timpani is buried under the orchestra, isolate it first — then convert that stem.
Start from a timp-forward take
A clear timp cue beats a distant hall mix.
Isolate when the mix is busy
Use Stem Splitter for timpani, upload the stem here, or leave Auto on if the hits are already obvious.
Tune rolls for the cue
Tune rolls and hit timing on your timpani library so the cue lands with authority.
Orchestrators who needed timpani MIDI, not kit drums
“Timp hits became MIDI I could retune under a new key without retracking.”
“Glad this stayed separate from kit drums — pitches finally made sense.”
“Dropped the MIDI into Cubase, then tuned a roll. Ready timpani hits for the cue.”
