Little side project from the past few months indexing ascii guitar tab sections into pseudo-language "words" (notes, chords) and "sentences" (riffs) that can be queried and indexed with ElasticSearch (Apache Lucene).

Hi HN! I'm Gabe, the creator of Songcraft (https://songcraft.io/home). I recently dove headfirst into songwriting, and I quickly grew frustrated with my process. I found songwriting difficult enough without having to wrangle a mess of different tools, and there's no great solution to build chord sheets and tabs (unless you love pure text input). So, I built Songcraft - an online songwriting platform and tab builder. The drag-and-drop editor makes it easy to jump from chords to lyrics to melodies. I added a chord progression generator and chord recommendation engine to ensure…

Almost a year ago someone stumbled upon our hobby project and posted it to HN (edit: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33999162). It was magical to see so many of you enjoy something we built for our love of music. We’re back today with a real product and are excited to see what you think! riffusion.com lets you create original music via short, shareable audio clips called “riffs”. You describe the lyrics and a musical style to generate riffs complete with singing and custom artwork in a few seconds. From inspiring musicians, to wishing your mom a ‘good morning!’, we are…

Author here - one of the most notable facts about the app is that it's made entirely in Godot Game Engine! I think it's great for apps like this because it makes it especialy easy to iterate on GUI designs such as this one. Feel free to ask me anything about Chord Chart Memo, or my experience with Godot.

Hi folks, About seven months ago, via HN, I got nerdsniped into a silly guitar transcription problem and made a bunch of really senseless code but what came out of it was what I thought at the time could potentially be pretty useful - a guitar fretboard mapper and fingering scoring algorithm. So as of yesterday morning I've finally put those bits of code to "good" use, creating gtrsnipe to convert between MIDI files (.mid) and ASCII tab (as well as VexTab and ABC notation) and any combination/direction among the set of formats. gtrsnipe tries to intelligently find the best neck and…

I created a simple CLI that turns a YouTube guitar-lesson video into a PDF of the guitar tab. There are services that transcribe music from Youtube videos into tabs, but they never work well enough for me. Instead I'm taking a simpler approach. It downloads the video, samples frames, uses Claude vision to locate the tab region, crops every frame to that region, de-duplicates the crops by the bar number printed on each line of the score, and stitches the distinct tab lines vertically into a PDF. I didn't test it on a lot of different Youtube videos yet, so problem will arise for sure.

Hey HN, I'm a software engineer with a passion for playing guitar. (https://ivanhsu.co) In the software industry, we use clever plain-text syntaxes like Markdown and Mermaid to handle complex layouts. This lets us focus on the content itself and quickly produce beautifully formatted documents. Isn't sheet music and chord charts just another form of documentation in the world of music? That's why I created Cord Land https://cord.land/landing ! It's a website where you can quickly generate lead sheets and draw chord charts using plain text. Even better, it can…

Hey everyone, I wanted to share something I’ve been working on that I think could be really helpful for fellow guitarists. It’s called StringScales (https://stringscales.com), and it’s a free tool that I built because, honestly, I've been able to learn so much about music on the internet, and I wanted to contribute something useful. It started as a personal project. I’ve always felt that a lot of the tools available for guitarists could be better... more intuitive, more accessible, and without the constant need to pay for basic features like CAGED or 3NPS position highlighting. So,…
