Type of File

At least it got the key signature right, though not the meter.

Thanks for including the link to the file as it is very helpful

This file is a beautiful performance rendition of the piece, but it was recorded without reference to the MIDI metronome, which is why it looks a mess when transcribed. Fortunately, Notation Composer's ReBar feature can help you get usable sheet music from this file. There is a Tutorial Video (fairly new) that demonstrates how to use the ReBar feature - you can find it at http://www.notation.com/vb-forum/showthread.php?t=4064

Alternatively, you can try finding a different .mid file of the piece that may have been sequenced/recorded according to a metronome, and perhaps tweaked using the Tempo map rather than just freely recording to get a good performance. You can just use a favorite search engine to look for "clair de lune MIDI file", or any of the special search engines on our page at http://www.notation.com/MIDI-Search.php

Enjoy!
