AES Conference: 41st International Conference: Audio for Games · Paper P2-3 · February 2011

Abstract

Songs2See is a web based application designed to assist music students in their practice time. Its main features are: use of real musical instruments instead of midi or game-controllers, immediate feedback and assessment, fingering suggestions for each instrument, entertaining ways of displaying content, users’ possibility to generate their own game content out of audio tracks and user selected options like tempo and difficulty. To provide the user with such a system, current audio processing technologies for pitch tracking, sound source separation, music transcription and rhythm analysis have been included. We aim to take music gaming into a new direction where learning, playing and having fun can finally converge.
