Hi,
Given that on the various lists I posed my question, only a single person
expressed confusion, I respectfully differ.
As I freely stated that I did not anticipate a Linux solution, but was
hopeful , indicated my goal, and learned a great deal, I further differ
with your stance.
granted, I did arrive at the same information from elsewhere much faster
than here, perhaps? suggesting your smart questions guide might be at
fault?
best,
Karen

Karen,
There seems to be some confusion about exactly what you would like
(or at least I am a little confused), so perhaps some clarification
can help.
Glad you are owning your confusion at least. smiles.
Karen, the way that you asked the question was somewhat confusing.
From the way you asked it, it seems you may not be familiar with Rick
Moen's article (later expanded by Eric Raymond), "How To Ask Questions
The Smart Way": http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
I would recommend reading that article.
Anyway...
In *outline*, with today's technology, there is broadly speaking only
one way to achieve what you desire. And that is to convert your voice
to MIDI data, to edit/arrange the MIDI data, and to finally output that
MIDI data as musical scores (for musicians/orchestra to play), or as
audio (using MIDI synths/samplers).
- A pitch-to-midi tool. Most likely this will be a software package of
some kind. Some such tools may do real-time pitch-to-midi
conversion; others may analyse (monophonic) recordings, and output
MIDI.
Either way, the tool will take audio of a voice as input, and will
output either a MIDI file or a MIDI stream.
- If your tool outputs a MIDI stream rather than a MIDI file, you will
need to capture that stream into a MIDI file.
- Once you have a MIDI file, you can load it into a MIDI sequencer and
perform whatever edits/arrangements/etc you desire. Typically, you
can preview what the resulting edit/arrangement will sound like, by
playing the MIDI data from the sequencer into a MIDI synthesizer or
sampler.
- If you are happy with the audio output from the synth/sampler, you
can record it as your final output. Otherwise, you could record it
into a multitrack recorder for further editing/mixing/mastering.
- If the sequencer supports displaying/printing MIDI files as musical
notation (e.g. Steinberg Cubase does), then you can print the
resulting musical scores.
Otherwise, you will need to load the MIDI files into a separate piece
of software in order to turn the MIDI into printable musical scores.
Which specific package to use for each of the steps is a matter of
choice.
Other people on this list can perhaps make recommendations.
Hopefully, that is helpful!
Sam
