Nota

Nota is desktop music transcription software for musicians who want to learn a recording by ear.

Nota lets you change playback speed while keeping the music in tune, so difficult passages are easier to hear and play back using the Rubber Band library.

Want to practice a solo with the drums and bass from a recording? Separate a song into its stems and listen to only the parts you want to hear.
