Anyone knows an application (for Linux) that
can take the sound of a single instrument (or
voice, or anything that's simple - not complex
sounds) as an input, and transform it into notes
(or a MIDI file)?
Essentially, it's what a musician with perfect pitch does - upon hearing
a melody, start playing it on an instrument.
Or, if you wish, the reverse of a softsynth: from WAV to MIDI.
If I understand what you're asking for, then I know I've seen exactly
this. I most likely saw it at...
Tucows

Or
Freshmeat

I remember it saying that you can (for instance) sing into a mic and the
notes would be imputted into a midi file.
I wish I could point you to something more definate. I hope this helps.
