Thanks, but there are lots of artefact notes! AFAIK the interface offers
no options.

conversion from midi to sound format (wma, mp3 etc) is rather straight forward. But not so for conversion from sound recordings to midi. This task, music recognition, is a non trivial task. In its nature it resembles OCR text recognition from scanned book pages, or, even more complicated, music recognition from scanned music prints. Recognition of music events like midi or musicxml from recorded performances is most likely dramatically more complicated.

There are commercial converters available, mainly for windows. They are not cheap, and they don't guarantee perfect results. I recommend having a look at this list of conversion software
