Hi HN! I'm Gabe, the creator of Songcraft. I shared early versions of Songcraft on HN, and I'm so grateful to the community for the feedback. I've incorporated a ton of these ideas…

I run an online collaborative songwriting platform ( https://songcraft.io ). With the quarantine, I'm going to be pushing to launch a matchmaking system for songwriters looking for…

This is really great! For your progressions section, are all of the progressions added manually? It would be cool to have a way to generate or manipulate them more flexibly. I'm th…

I've really enjoyed working with Tone.js! Many of Songcraft's ( https://songcraft.io ) audio features are powered by Tone.js. It's been a great way to manage loops, samples, etc. I…

That's really interesting. When I was exploring implementing standard notation, I also came across ABC notation. If/when I take on standard notation, I think ABC notation would be …

Thank you so much. That's the balance I'm aiming for, but there's still room to improve!

Exactly my thoughts! I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad direction to go, I just want to make sure I do it the right way.

Hahah I was wondering if anyone would enjoy the reference. Thanks for checking it out =}

I’m really excited to look into some of the publishing and community-based features that might be possible. I’m not sure I would want to tackle tab hosting on the scale that UG doe…

Thanks very much! I’d always love to hear any feedback after you get a chance to check it out!

Entire song playback isn't live yet, but it's coming very soon! There have been a ton of requests today, so I'll be prioritizing it.

This is very helpful feedback, thank you. In a couple places, I mention that the $4.95/mo rate (Launch discount) is for the first 3 months of your subscription before it changes to…

You can add any chord you want! Just click anywhere on a chord line and enter the chord you like (or click on an existing chord and type to change it). You will also get recommende…

I wanted to launch with a simple pricing model, but I'm working on developing a longer term (annual/lifetime) plan to sit alongside the monthly one. I think that's an important poi…

The progressions from the generator are based on manipulations of common patterns in scale degrees. The chord recommendations in the editor are predicted from a recurrent neural ne…

I actually might do that. It's been the top feature request of the day. I'll look into it this week and see if I can ship something useful to tide us all over until I can improve i…

That’s a great question. I held off on tackling standard notation because there are some existing solutions out there for composing standard notation. I decided to focus first on w…

I love hearing how everyone addresses this problem in their own way. I hope you enjoy Songcraft, and would love any feedback you have!
