Copyright & DMCA

Our position

Audio2MIDI.org converts recordings, scores and MIDI files that you provide. We built it for your own playing, your own songs, and music you have permission to use, such as public-domain works or material licensed to you.

• Only upload files you have the right to use. Every upload point on the site says so, and our Terms of Service prohibit uploading content that infringes someone else's rights.
• We don't accept video or streaming links. There is no field for YouTube, TikTok or similar URLs. We only process files you upload yourself.
• We don't publish your files. Uploads and results are not shown to other users, and there are no public share pages.
• Converting a file doesn't change who owns the music. A MIDI file or score made from a recording doesn't give you rights to the composition or the recording if you didn't already have them.

Our examples

The demo pieces on this site are public-domain compositions (for example J.S. Bach's Prelude in C major, BWV 846, and Erik Satie's Gymnopédie No. 1) that we encoded, performed or rendered ourselves, or short original melodies written for this site. Demo scores are engraved by us from those encodings, not copied from modern published editions. Demos are labeled as demos and are not presented as model output.

Sending a copyright notice (DMCA)

If you believe material processed or stored through Audio2MIDI.org infringes a copyright you own or are authorized to act for, email copyright@audio2midi.org with:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on their behalf.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work you believe is infringed.
3. Identification of the material you believe is infringing, with enough detail for us to locate it (for example the account email, file name, or a job or result link you received).
4. Your name, postal address, telephone number and email address.
5. A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the owner's behalf.

These elements follow 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3). Notices that are missing them may not be actionable, and we may ask you for the missing details.

What we do with a notice

• We review every complete notice and, where it is valid, promptly remove or disable access to the material identified.
• We notify the account holder that the material was removed and pass on the notice, which may include your contact details.
• We keep records of notices, and we terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

Counter-notices

If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or a misidentification, you can send a counter-notice to the same address with:

1. Your physical or electronic signature.
2. Identification of the material that was removed and where it appeared before removal.
3. A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification.
4. Your name, address and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for your address (or, if you are outside the United States, any judicial district in which Audio2MIDI.org may be found), and that you will accept service of process from the person who sent the original notice or their agent.

These elements follow 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3). We forward valid counter-notices to the original sender and may restore the material unless they tell us they have filed a court action.

Please be accurate

Under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), anyone who knowingly makes a material misrepresentation in a notice or counter-notice may be liable for damages. If you're not sure whether a use infringes your rights, consider getting legal advice before you send a notice.
