I don't see one.  Only xml input.  Which will be fine when there start
being lots of programs that output it, and people figure out how to do
it.  Right now, I don't know anyone who's sharing MusicXML
transcriptions.

Does anyone know a way to get MIDI into MusicXML?

Right now Lilypond has people working actively on MusicXML input, but
as far as I know, people are only talking about MusicXML output.  

Everybody knows how bad MIDI is as a notation exchange format, but the
number of people really working on getting anything better is really
small.

I suppose it can be said I'm an absent-minded driver.  It's true that
I've driven through a number of red lights on occasion, but on the
other hand I've stopped at a lot of green ones but never gotten credit
for it.

Glenn Gould, quoted in "A Romance on Three Legs" by Katie Hafner
