I have used both Finale and Sibelius do to this with varying degrees of success depending upon the actual music. Both offer trials so that you can see if it works for you.

If anyone is working on this, it would probably be the major music notation software companies like Notion, Make Music's "Finale", or Sibelius. Most of them already have this functionality for monophonic input through a microphone, but it's designed more for playing a wind instrument or singing rather than wav or mp3 input. Google "Finale MicNotator HyperScribe" to see some examples of how to do it with Finale.
There is also a company called SeventhString that publishes a program called "Transcribe!" that can help you do your own transcription from an mp3 or wav file by marking the wav display with it's best guess as to what the notes and chords are, but it doesn't do direct audio-to-notation conversion. However, it does have a "piano roll view" that looks promising.

I think this is usually done in two steps: audio>midi and then midi>notation. Some of the audio>midi software works OK for a single-note (monophonic) line, but the recognition of midi note pitches from polyphonic (multi-note, multi-instrument) audio is inevitably a lot less accurate (to put it mildly). A lot depends on the instrumentation in the audio file. Complex instruments with lots of harmonics are harder to work with than e.g. a simple pure flute sound. Maybe Intelliscore, Wavemid or WIDI?

I agree. As an amateur musician (full time software engineer), if the software can get me 80% or better on the notes, I can sort out the instruments from hearing the song if the software can't get it. As for the key signature, if I can't spot a key signature and key change from the accidentals in a C key signature, then I should not be arranging music.

I plan to take the trial versions of the software titles recommended in this thread, and try them out this weekend. Then I can report on how well they worked, given the same MP3.

There have been many attempts to create software that can accurately transcribe polyphonic music, going back at least to 1998 (WidiSoft). All of the ones I have tried have produced quite bad results, with a mess of very short notes and lots of "noise" notes that it's falsely detected from overtones or whatnot.
There's a pretty comprehensive list of existing software here.
As it's still a research problem without a general satisfactory solution, you can also find lots of papers on Google Scholar[^]. I tried a couple of programs released with research papers with mixed results (mostly on piano music, but some chip music too). Let me know if you find something that works well!

Guilty? Not sure about that, but I would have to plaid kilty. No sense in skirting the issue when the Scots are involved.
