HUMMED MELODY WORKFLOW

Convert Humming to MIDI

Hum one clear note at a time, leave a definite change between notes, and record in a quiet place. Use the microphone button below or upload a saved recording. The converter detects one pitch at each analysis moment, so harmony, backing music, strong echo, and continuous pitch slides can create unwanted or broken notes.

Melody: one pitch at a time
Vowel: keep the tone steady
Transitions: make note changes clear
Test: change one variable only

Four-step humming-to-MIDI capture and testing workflow — Record a clean single-note melody first; use controls to refine a repeatable result, not to repair overlapping sounds.

PROCESS ON THIS DEVICE

Record or upload a hummed melody

Use one short phrase for the baseline, then repeat that same phrase when testing a control.

Visible or audible symptom	Check first	One controlled test	Stop condition
Breaths become short notes	Match fragments to breaths in the recording	Raise Silence threshold one step	Fragments disappear while soft intended notes remain
One slide becomes many notes	Listen for a long glide between targets	Record again with a steadier pitch and cleaner change	The preview shows one block per intended note
Notes jump by an octave	Find whether jumps occur on the same hummed pitch	Narrow one pitch-range edge	Jumps disappear without clipping melody notes
Quiet notes are missing	Confirm they are audible in the source	Lower Silence threshold one step	The note returns before room noise creates fragments
Short fragments remain between notes	Check whether they are briefer than real notes	Raise Minimum note one step	Fragments disappear while intended short notes remain

Decision map for breath fragments, pitch slides, octave jumps, and missing soft notes in a hummed melody — Match a visible symptom to one test, then keep or revert the change before trying another control.

SOURCE

Hum one pitch at a time

The detector estimates one frequency or no frequency for each analysis frame. Chords and doubled voices do not become separate simultaneous MIDI tracks here.

TRANSITIONS

Clean attacks make clearer boundaries

A long glide passes through many intermediate pitches. Hold the vowel steady, then make a deliberate change when the next note begins.

NOISE TEST

Separate breath from duration

Threshold filters quieter frames; Minimum note filters short detected events. Test them separately so the result shows which change mattered.

EVIDENCE

Compare the same phrase

Keep the melody, distance, room, and device fixed. Compare note blocks and audible preview before keeping any control change.

QUICK ANSWERS

Humming-to-MIDI questions

Can I convert humming to MIDI?

Yes. Record or upload a clear single-note hummed melody, convert it in the browser, preview the detected notes, and download the result as a .mid file.

Does the page upload my voice?

No. The recording or selected file is decoded and analyzed in this browser and is not uploaded to a server.

Why does a smooth pitch slide create extra MIDI notes?

A slide contains changing pitch over time. Re-record with steadier target notes and clearer transitions before changing the detection controls.

How do I remove breath sounds from the MIDI?

Hold the recording fixed and raise Silence threshold one step. If the unwanted notes are brief rather than quiet, revert and test Minimum note separately.

Can it convert harmonized humming?

This page estimates one pitch at each analysis moment, so use one melodic line without harmony or backing music for a result that matches the tool's design.
