Jazz in Hacker News. Should I submit something about reggaeton next? This is getting RIDICULOUS. Gimme the old HN back!

This might be intentional on your part, but it seems to mark enharmonic equivalents as incorrect (a 5th from Gb is Db, which is the same as C# but C# is marked as incorrect).

Nice touch that deleting letters descends chromatically. Letters typed appear unrelated to notes generated, you can type the same letter and it will keep generating different notes. Also, it seems it will never resolve to the root, no matter what you type :(

Never give any satisfaction to the listener, no matter what, pretty much the most important rule of high brow jazz.

make it give a way to show the answer and/or move on -- I don't know what I'm doing, but I could learn if it taught me.

That was awesome! I really want to make something like this now. I love how the samples are queued and played in time with the tempo.

Also, can't figure out how to play the lick

There doesn't seem to be a way to affect the pitch, so figuring out how to play anything in particular is going to be tough.

This is great. Would love to be able to enable this on my keyboard for typing everything as a bit of an upgrade over my super clicky mechanical keyboard.
