How to convert OGG, MP3 or WAV to MIDI?

I search all over the place and find nothing.

Is there any softwere that can help me with the task?

I need it for sound and music in our Android Game.

Thanks!

  • Notice how MIDI files are all just a few kilobytes in size, while MP3's are a few megabytes, WAV even more?

    MIDI files consist of notes and instruments. You need special sound libraries to play them. Different libraries sound different. Same file can sound really different on Windows and Android. On the other hand MP3, OGG and WAV all consist of waveforms (actual sound). You can convert MIDI to MP3 easily.

    Converting MP3 to MIDI would require analysing waveforms to extract notes and instruments or doing it manually in music editors. MIDI also can't have vocals (except for aah insrument). You're better trying to play MP3 or OGG files.
