Could you build this?

Partial Fetching videos and converting formats is simple, but polyphonic music transcription, source separation, and accurate sheet music arrangement at multiple difficulty levels require specialized DSP and ML models.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires a pipeline downloading media, running audio source separation (e.g., Demucs) to isolate instruments, running polyphonic music transcription models (like MT3 or Onsets and Frames), and converting the resulting note events into MIDI and MusicXML using libraries like music21. The hard part is algorithmic arrangement to synthesize playable piano/guitar scores across five difficulty tiers, requiring specialized audio ML and music theory expertise.
