AudioToMIDI
AudioToMIDI is a tool for converting audio signals into MIDI data, using the fiddle~ external in Max. It is not intended for precise transcription, but rather for generating MIDI that creates variations or reinterpretations of the incoming audio.
The MakeRandomChords section allows you to input your own pitch class sets, from which the synth generates random chords. Use the MaxLength parameter to define the maximum number of notes in each generated chord (e.g., set it to 6 to allow chord sizes from 1 to 6 notes).
Params
Flush — Clear/reset any stored MIDI data
InstrumentOrVoice — Switch detection mode between instrument-like or voice-like input.
MIDINoteDuration — Set duration for generated MIDI notes.
NoiseGateAmpTreshhold — Set amplitude threshold below which audio is ignored (noise gate).

Transient detector
Transient detector is a transient detection device, that turns audio signals into MIDI notes. When the audio signal crosses a specified threshold, a MIDI note is generated based on the pitch information set in the device.
The device works with both live audio input and pre-recorded samples and was primarily built from a Youtube tutorial by Sarah Belle Reid.
Params
Bang — Manually trigger a MIDI note.
Duration — Set the duration of generated MIDI notes.
Flush — Clear/reset any stored MIDI or detection state.
Input — Set Input Volume
Modulate — Modulate the generated pitch
RandomPitch — Create Random Pitches
ScrambleOrLoop — Choose between scramble or loop mode for the pitches
Threshold — Adjust the threshold for the transients, higher means lower thresholdVelocity — Set velocity of the generated MIDI notes.
