Thanks Its great thought if you could do that but I understand what
you are saying.

You are correct, what you want to do is not possible with current
technology. MIDI is a way to tell a computer to use this stored
sound, vary it by this note, volume, timber, attack, sustain and a
variety of other variables to produce the sound. The file you have
is a single wave form with all the instruments in it.
It is somewhat analogous to speech recognition. Speech recognition
works to 95%+ accuracy, but that is after training it for one
person for one language. IIRC, in English there are under 200
phonemes that a speech recognition program has to interpret. In a
band, you have maybe 50 instruments, each in slightly different
tune, all being played at once with different degrees of skill.
With all the variables involved with each note and each instrument,
you get a tremendous computational problem, not to mention the
problem of separating out the first trombone from the second.
I am sure there are people working on the solution to this, but I
am guessing that they are running it on clusters like Virginia
Techs System X with 1100 Dual 2.3GHz xServers, not a single Dual G5.

Try dent du midi. Should work....not the best results, but it's
the only solution that I know of.

theres
probably a program that will do it. What OS are you running?

What is the best way to convert a AIFF file to Midi or can you
