What it does

Slow down a song and transcribe it by ear.

Tune Transcriber is a free online tool for musicians who learn by listening. Slow a track down far enough to hear every note, loop the bar that keeps beating you, and work it out one phrase at a time. It runs in your browser, so there is nothing to install and your music never leaves your machine.

/ 01

Slow a song to 25%, same pitch

Time stretching keeps every note where it belongs while the tempo drops. Hear the run at half speed, learn it, then creep back up to full tempo.

¼× · ½× · ¾× · 1×
/ 02

Loop the hard bar

Drag across the waveform to set A and B and the passage repeats until you own it. Save the loops you keep coming back to.

A 0:57 → B 1:05
/ 03

Start on a delay

Put up to five seconds in front of playback, and in front of every loop repeat, so you have a moment to get your hands back on the instrument before the phrase comes around again.

½s · 1s · 2s · 5s
/ 04

Change the pitch, not the speed

Transpose by octaves, semitones, or cents to match your instrument, your voice, or a record that was cut a little sharp.

Analysis

See what’s played, not just
what it sounds like.

Note detection, chords, spectrogram, tempo and key — all computed on your machine, none of it uploaded. Experimental, and honest about it: dense multi-instrument mixes are still hard.

AI notes

Notes and chords

An advanced AI pitch-detection model runs entirely on your own machine and lays out a polyphonic piano roll, chords included.

Am · C · G · F

Pitch track

One line at a time

Best-effort detection follows a single melody — a solo, a bass line, a vocal — and names each note as it plays.

C4 · D4 · E4

Spectrogram

Every frequency

Switch views to see which frequencies are strongest over time, for the overtones and dense mixes a waveform hides.

Tempo & key

Before you start

Every track gets an automatic BPM and key estimate, so you know what you are working with before the first loop.

~120 BPM · ~D major

Around the edges

Get the track in, get your work back out.

MP3, WAV, or YouTube

Load a file straight off your machine, or paste a YouTube link and practice against the video. Nothing gets uploaded anywhere.

Marks and beats

Drop marks to label sections and beats to line up the time, then jump straight between them while you work.

M mark · B beat

Export the slowed down loop

Render the A to B section at your current tempo and pitch as an MP3, so the hard part comes with you when you leave the desk.

How it works

How does he do that?Oh, that’s how.

No installs, no plugins, no signal-chain homework. Tune Transcriber runs in the browser and gets out of the way of your practice.

  1. Load a song

    Drop an MP3 or paste a YouTube link. The waveform appears in seconds.

  2. Trap the passage

    Drag A and B around the phrase, pull the tempo down, shift the key if you need to.

  3. Play until it’s yours

    The loop repeats while you play. Creep the tempo back toward 100% as it settles under your fingers.

Put on the record.
Take it apart.
