transcription from midi keyboard with quantization

• Nov 12, 2020 - 15:56

Entering notes from a midi keyboard has always been, for me, time consuming and difficult with regards to getting the note durations right. Press 4 (8th note) play some notes, press 5 (4tr note) play some notes, etc.

Last night I hit on an idea to play in real time into a DAW against a metronome click, then quantize the notes in the DAW, then export that as MIDI, and then pull that into Musescore. It's a beautiful thing. It produced a nice clean score in almost less time than it took me to write this forum post.

Wondering if there is a similar quantize feature in MuseScore, if not... there needs to be (in v4?). I know I can enter midi notes in real-time, but i'm not a good enough keyboardist to get the starts and durations so the notation I produce that way is unusable.
