Inspiration
Learning to sight read sheet music is hard, yet games like guitar hero express complicated rhythms in an easy-to-process manner just by using the note spacings. We figured there had to be a way this could be applied to real music.
What it does
When you enter sheet music, the app will play it on a track at the speed of your choice and detect how well you play it by listening on a microphone.
How we built it
We used libgdx and a Java DSP library
Challenges we ran into
DSP in Java is hard :( and musical notation can be complex
Accomplishments that we're proud of
We managed to solve the issue of I/O lag by giving feedback visual following phrases of notes instead of in real-time
What's next for Note-ation
