Compare the model output with the original audio to review onsets, boundaries and source assignment.
Move MIDI and time-aligned tables into a DAW, notation editor or downstream analysis workflow.

Workflow

1Upload the complete supported file rather than a short test fragment.
2Choose the profile that matches the instrument or task, then adjust only the controls exposed by that official model.
3Review the preview against the original audio and download the result files from the completed task.

Pre-flight checklist

Do not send a dense full mix directly to a solo-instrument model; separate the target stem first when needed.
Start with the published defaults and change thresholds only when the preview shows a specific boundary or false-note problem.
Treat transcription as an editable draft: timing, note length, fingering and chord boundaries may still need musical correction.
