Synthesia does a very similar thing with Guitar Hero-like scrolling but uses MIDI (so, no sound recognition, you need a MIDI keyboard).

Exactly. Rhythm quantization is one of those things that no app ever gets right.

I've been working on converting midi/virtual midi input (from a performer) to notation in real time for an iPad notation app. It really is hard - I spent a tremendous amount of time on it, an still plan on improving it indefinitely after the feature ships.

Dude, your app rocks. We tried to get in touch with you a while back with no response.
