Transcribing is done when there is no previously printed music, therefore a recording must be listened to carefully and the notes written down in order to create sheet music.  This can be done for original compositions, or a very popular piece that has never been published as sheet music.

For original works, the recording should be made using the best quality equipment and media available to the composer.   A muffled recording or ambient room noise will lengthen the time it takes to transcribe a piece.
