Is there a fairly simple way to generate a MIDI input using an onboard mic in Linux.

Essentially I want a laptop to 'understand' an acoustic #piano or other instrument in real time (even if it's just tones).

From a quick search it looks like Aubio might be an option. It looks like it can do a realtime analysis of audio input and output the notes. I’m not sure that it directly outputs midi though.
