[QCLUG] Simple .wav to .midi converter

[Arron Lorenz]

---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment
I've gone on the hunt for something like this for any platform. A band's
drummer had died and they wanted to use his drumming as a tribute on a track
for a new CD. The drummer had passed before they were big enough to
have separate channel recordings archived. In my experience there are a
couple of apps for windows but were way to expensive and
IMO just didn't work.
