Hello everybody,
I have .wav musical files that reproduce the sound of certain notes. I am looking for a software that is able to determine the note and its register. Can any of you be able to recommend one, possibly free and for Linux?

Thank you very much!

In addition to what others have mentioned I seem to remember Audacity having several analysis tools and analysis plugins that had pitch/note detection on their "feature list", see for example this thread on the topic. I have never used Audacity for this purpose so I don't know if it has become easier since, but it will likely take some effort to get this approach working for your specific sound files so I wouldn't recommend you try this unless all else fails or you like tinkering with the all the juicy technical filtering details.

Another approach could be to try one of the many online music-to-note services (which I have never tried).
