Hi all,<br><br>I'd like to introduce <a href="http://chordify.net/" target="_blank">Chordify</a> [1], an online music player that extracts chords from musical sources like Soundcloud, Youtube or your own files, and shows you which chord to play when. Here's an example song: <a href="http://chordify.net/chords/passenger-let-her-go-official-video-passengermusic" target="_blank">http://chordify.net/chords/passenger-let-her-go-official-video-passengermusic</a><br>
<br>The aim of Chordify is to make state-of-the-art music technology accessible to a broader audience. Behind the scenes, Chordify uses the HarmTrace Haskell package to compute chords from audio. I've been working on this project with a couple of colleagues for a while now, and recently we have made the website public, free to use for everyone.<br>
<br>We do not use Haskell for any of the frontend/user interface, but the backend is entirely written in Haskell (and it uses pretty advanced features, such as GADTs and type families [3]). We're particularly interested in user feedback at this stage, so if you're interested in music and could use an automatic chord transcription service, please try Chordify!<br>
<br><br>Cheers,<br>Pedro<br><br>[1] <a href="http://chordify.net/" target="_blank">http://chordify.net/</a><br>[2] <a href="http://hackage.haskell.org/package/HarmTrace" target="_blank">http://hackage.haskell.org/package/HarmTrace</a><br>
