Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata is No.14 in C-sharp minor and is one of his most famous Piano Sonatas, particularly the first movement which we present here. This movement is sometimes labelled "Quasi una fantasia" (like a Fantasy) though it doesn't suggest moonlight in any way. Rather it is quite a dark quiet movement with an insistent triplet rhythm, and the challenge for the pianist is to keep this even with just the right nuances of crescendo and rubato in appropriate places. We have included some suggested pedalling suitable for a modern piano, though the aim is to achieve a smooth sustained legato without muddying the harmonies.

But a one stop tool would require a very well thought out MIDI FX app or script. Maybe someone will take the challenge. The transposition is trivial and forcing notes into a precise scale is also something @brambos built into Mozaic's functions. So maybe someone will try the generalized case making the transposition and scale selection the inputs and see what comes out in realtime for anyone seeking this magic spell.
Except key signatures don't determine minor or major. C minor is natural minor of Eb major (and has same key signature), and D minor is natural minor of F major (and same key signature). To transpose from C minor/Eb major to D minor/F major, you would simply add 1 whole step (2 half steps) to each note.
In Xequence piano roll select all the notes and move all of them up 2 semitones. That will give you D minor which has the same key signature as F major. This should sound very similar just a little higher.
Alternatively you could change the C minor to C major first by moving only all Eb, Ab and Bb notes up one semitone.
After that select all and move all the notes up 5 semitones to get F major. This will make it sound very different to the original.

This is where we should scene the patch storage listings and see if the transpose is there.
I'm sure it is... and then see if the force to scale type is there and test the process.
I have a "Moonlight Sonata" midi file which is C# Minor (4 sharps)... I'll try to convert up a 4th and majorize it to F# major (6 sharps) and see how it holds up. The secondary dominants which add a 3rd out of key will create more of a modal feeling and loose the power they hold in the original key but it's a fun experiement is algorthymic music making to avoid copyright claims while stealing the jewels.
Are you looking to just transpose to D minor, which has F Major as its relative Major, or do you want to convert to the parallel Major then transpose? There is no simple way to transpose all notes by the same amount and make a minor key signature feel like a Major key signature.
That step gets a bit more tricky of the original key is Bb minor and you have to manually change notes to Bb major. I'll let someone propose the required notes re-assignments as a music theory exercise. It's a lot easier to use a MIDI filter to force a scale mode and avoid the mental math.
Traditional western classical music tends to place minor keys using the
harmonic minor key to provide a major dominant chord - G7 in C minor.
So, that Bb vs B natural is dependent on the chord progression in play.
There are mysteries revealed in the maths and in music theory. Some people just prefer experiencing the mysteries and need no explanation for that sense of wonder. They hear music and just exclaim "There, right there... magic."
For instance, if you just wanted to force C minor to F major, you could just move all the Eb and Ab notes up one semitone. If C was the tonal center of the untransposed piece, it would remain the tonal center even though the new key root would be F.
Or, if you wanted to shift the tonal center to F, then you would move the entire melody as-is up (or down) to F, which would put it into F minor, then raise the Db, Eb, and Ab by a semitone to put it into F major. A very different outcome. There are other ways to do it as well.
Rozeta Scaler is the best utility I can think of to do this. Since it has both input and output transpose options, you can easily try different methods to see which sounds the best. For instance, you can leave input and output transpose at zero and just select F major for the scale (method 1 above). Or, you can transpose the input up five semitones to F before applying the F major transposition (method 2 above). Or, leave input transpose alone, pick C major for the scale, then transpose the output up five semitones. Additionally, there are the quantize up and down options, which determine whether non-fitting notes are forced up or down a semitone to fit the scale. All will come out with different results, but all end up in F major.
But the C minor chords would now be C major. The 4 Chord F minor would be F major.
So the root stays on C because the notes of the song would likely be based upon C.
Of course you can write a tune that emphasizes any scale note as the root since that's really all mode do... they are arranged to sound like they are home (at rest) on a particular note.
Transposing MIDI is trivial since MIDI stores notes as numbers and you may add or subtract all numbers in the MIDI file and solve that problem. But add chord context and
complex rhythm processing and now you're got a world class set of problems to solve.
No, the root would be F if it's in F minor. The root is the basis of the scale. The tonal center (or home as you call it) can be any note, note necessarily the root. Of course, if you're playing in C major but the tone center is F, then you could argue that the piece is in F Lydian, even though the two share the same notes. However, on sheet music it'd be written with no sharps and flats (thus in C major notation).
Transpose can mean moving all the notes up or down the same interval, but it can also mean moving them different intervals. Moving all notes up by the same five semitones is transposing C minor to F minor. Moving some five semitones and the Eb and Ab six semitones would transpose C minor to F major. Both are transpositions, just to different scales.
Just wanted to chime in to return the honor for considering Xequence -- I've long wanted to offer a range of automatic conversion options when the root key or scale of an existing instrument with clips on it is changed... I hope I can get around to doing it some day and might get back to someone on this thread here as that seems to be kind of a minefield (the conversion, not the thread )
I'm sure there are some out there. Yes, please add scale conversions. They are pretty simple if the user gives you the root they want. It's the bomb. It makes everything sound
perfect or takes something perfect and improves it in odd ways.
Yep, she seems to spark a lot of questions here then dip right out. I found it annoying at first, but the brainstorming that ensues with actual regulars is engaging. Don't really expect or care if this person takes our advice or not. Doesn't even show the courtesy of responding to our questions. 152ee80cbc
