You might look into a pitch-to-midi converter. There are several
available, but their accuracy and tracking abilities vary so you'll
want to audition a few. I have some personal experience with Roland's
VP70 (which functions as a 4-voice harmonizer as well as a converter)
and it seems to work well enough, though I haven't tried using it to
compose from voice.
