Offline Recognition is recognition of a pre-recorded audio file. If you need to record it first, see Wave Recording on how to do that.
Offline Recognition is performed in several steps:
| · | Load an appropriate source file in 7Canaries (Click  Open).
|
| · | Select the part of the file you want to recognize (by default, the whole file is recognized). See Wave Window.
|
| · | Start recognition (Click  Transcribe on the Wave Window).
|
| · | Wait for the process to complete.
|
| · | Repeat the previous step, until the results are acceptable or until you prove that the piece is too complicated for the current version of 7Canaries.
|
| · | Invoke the VisiNote Editor(tm) from MIDI Window if you use 7Canaries Professional and correct all possible errors, using an "interlinear" spectrogram.
|
| · | Save the results to a MIDI file if you have registered your copy of 7Canaries software.

Offline Recognition usually yields better recognition quality than recognition in Realtime. There are many parameters that influence the recognition quality, and usually they need to be adjusted several times before the acceptable performance level is reached.
Recognition process requires a lot of computations. It loads CPU hard, and may take a lot of time on slow systems. You can pause (and recall all CPU resources back) or cancel it by pressing the appropriate buttons. You can speed up the consecutive processing by using GS files.
