Ask HN: Guitar tabs online

#1
We do want to change the way people get guitar tabs (chords). You submit mp3 and get guitar tabs back for it. Tabs will be synchronized to your song and could be inserted to any page as flash object.

You can get one file for free in 24 hours. Processing is FIFO based, so expect your chords to be ready in couple of hours, depending on the load, unless you will pay for speedup processing :)

Small history. We had introduced Chords! Winamp quite a while ago, and general comment was additional players/OS, so we decided to go purely web, without any software installation.

Try it http://chords.fm/online/web

Any comments are be welcome.

Wow, that's some impressive signal processing you've got going there.

How accurate is it ?

Possible other output channel (if you got this far) would be automated mp3 to midi transcription.

We are quite good. Try it :)

I would if I could play the guitar!

You must have had some spectacular headaches to deal with, especially with multiple instruments playing through one-another.

This is correct. there is quite complicated math behind that.
