Custom Transcription FAQ's

FAQ's
  • What is the Cost of a Custom Transcription?
​I charge by the hour; so the cost varies depending on the length and difficulty of each transcription and how long it takes me. But I do have perfect pitch, so I am able to transcribe quicker and more accurately than most.
  • What can you transcribe?
​Anything, really. It doesn't have to be jazz or piano-related. It can be any pitched instrument (such as bass, brass and wind instruments) and it can also be any size group.
  • How long does it take?
The turnaround time is usually pretty quick, anywhere from 1-5 days depending on the length and difficulty of the transcription. If you would need it to be done by a certain deadline, please let me know in your initial inquiry.
  • How do I pay you?
I accept payment via Venmo, Zelle/Chase Quickpay, and PayPal.
  • What are the steps?
1) Fill out the Custom Transcription Inquiry Form or email me at bijan@bijantaghavi.com with an inquiry, including:
  • an audio file (.mp3, .WAV, .aiff, etc) or YouTube link of the recording you want to have transcribed
  • the exact timestamp of what you'd like to be transcribed (are you looking for just the piano solo, the whole recording, or another segment?)
  • which instrument(s) you would like transcribed
  • If there is piano, let me know if you would like both hands to be transcribed or just the RH
  • Any specific formatting or other requests
2) Once I receive that information and listen to your file, I will reply to you with a price quote and turnaround time based on the length and difficulty of the transcription request.
3) A 50% deposit is then required. Upon receiving your payment, I will begin your transcription.
4) Upon completion, I will send you the transcription as a pdf file. At this point, you will let me know if you have any last formatting or other requests. At this point, the remaining 50% will be paid.

"Just wanted to thank you for referring me to Bijan for the transcription work. I can honestly say that Bijan blew me away at what he did. He is EXCELLENT and has a GREAT ear for hearing parts. The recording I sent to him was very difficult as it had 2 interlaced clarinet parts with LOTS of notes at a fast tempo. Lots of 2 trumpet moving parts too.  LOTS of notes to say the least with some parts buried under the vocals. (It's a different different kind music). I am amazed that Bijon was able to pick these parts out with such accuracy. The man is gifted. Fees were very reasonable as I know how long some of these intricate songs can be to transcribe. Turn around time was fast too. I would highly recommend him to anyone." - Richard
