# What is a Transcription?

## Transforms recordings or mock-ups into professional scores that musicians can then use to bring your music to life.

**🎵 Book Transcription [here](https://app.musiversal.com/services/transcription)**

#### **When to book Transcription**

- When you want a musician to replicate a specific part exactly as heard in your demo
- When you need a note-for-note score of a melody or instrument

#### **What you need to send**

- Audio file or MIDI file of the part you want transcribed

#### **What you will receive**

- **PDF score** 
    - Up to 20 transcribed bars
    - One instrument per request
- If your piece is longer or includes multiple instruments, you may need multiple sessions

#### **How it works**

- Submit your audio or MIDI file
- A producer transcribes your music into standard notation
- You receive a professional PDF score ready for musicians to read and perform
- If the transcription is not completed in one session, you can book additional sessions to continue the work

 

 

**Your Music, No Limits**
