Custom Music Transcription & Scoring Services
Every piece of music tells a story—and every transcription is unique.
Reaching Records offers custom music transcription and scoring services for artists, composers, educators, churches, filmmakers, and performers who need accurate, professionally notated music from an existing recording.
Whether you have a YouTube clip, MP3, demo recording, or live performance, our experienced musicians carefully listen, analyze, and translate your music into clear, readable notation tailored to your specific needs.
What We Transcribe
You may request transcription for:
- Full ensemble or orchestral scores
- Piano, vocal, rhythm section, or lead sheets
- Individual instruments (horns, strings, rhythm section, vocals, etc.)
- Film, worship, jazz, gospel, pop, or classical styles
- Simplified charts or highly detailed, note-for-note notation
You decide what parts you want transcribed and how detailed the notation should be.
How It Works
- Submit Your Audio or Video
Upload an MP3 or provide a YouTube link to your recording. - Provide Instructions
Tell us:- Which instruments you want transcribed
- Whether you want full notation, chord charts, lead sheets, or simplified scoring
- Any specific sections you want emphasized or omitted
- Custom Review & Quote
Every transcription is evaluated individually. We assess length, instrumentation, complexity, and detail required before providing a custom price and timeline. - Professional Delivery
Your completed transcription is delivered in clean, professional notation suitable for rehearsal, performance, or recording.
Pricing & Turnaround
There is no flat-rate pricing for transcription, because no two pieces of music are the same.
Pricing reflects:
- Length of the piece
- Number of instruments
- Musical complexity (rhythms, harmonies, modulations, improvisation)
- Level of detail requested
In general:
- More instruments, longer duration, and greater complexity require more time and skill to transcribe
- Simpler music or schematic notation (such as chord charts or lead sheets) requires less time
Your final cost is based on the time and expertise required to accurately capture your music.
Why Reaching Records
Reaching Records is built on musical excellence, attention to detail, and decades of professional performance, arranging, and production experience. We don’t rely on automated software alone—your music is transcribed by trained musicians who understand feel, phrasing, and musical intent.
The goal is not just accuracy—but playable, meaningful notation that serves the music.
