The site provides a trial download and lots of description of the software´s components and features. Try the download and see the `Spotlight Score´ to gather a sense of what the software does. The site lists websites with free, high quality Midi files to use with the software.

Description:

Use this software to translate music from Midi files to sheet music. From the website: "Notate, print, practice and play free Midi sheet music.  MidiIllustrator Midi notation software brings your favorite songs and musical works to life, generating dynamic, interactive music scores and lead sheets from thousands of Midi and Karaoke files freely available on the World Wide Web.   "Use MidiIllustrator's user friendly learning tools to develop your musical abilities.  Learn new music step by step, sight reading notes from the staff or without reading a note using lead sheets with chord notation, guitar frets and the on-screen piano keyboard."

Possible uses:

Music teachers can find music and translate it to a score quickly and simply. Take a file and translate it to a piano only score. The software also has multiple uses for students. Use a dynamic score (with lyrics lighting up in time with the music), watch the on-screen piano keys to learn a piece and improve sight reading skills using this software.
