Jai eu lidée de développer une appli qui reconnaisse les fréquence daccord et propose une équivalence dans un dictionnaire daccord complet. Ça me semblait pas tres compliqué pour un développeur. Soit un accord global soit les notes (corde ou touche de clavier) une par une. Lapplication aurait simplement fourni le nom de laccord identifié ou de laccord connu le plus proche. En somme, un usage inversé de tous les app dictionnaires daccord qui permettent aux musiciens de les jouer. Jattendais beaucoup de cette appli. Elle marche mal, nidentifie pas les accord complexes et - de façon aléatoire- nidentifie que des accords basiques (M/m). Quand elle y arrive. 8€ pour ça, je suis consterné. M

Naja

G und C wird erkannt, immerhin, wenn man das sehr präzise vorspielt. Funktioniert leider nicht so wie man sich das wünscht. Dafür leider viel zu teuer. 1 Stern für die Idee.

Crashes and way too expensive for poor performance

Was looking for a life chord picker to detect songs which are not stored in my phone. That works poorly. Even more annoying that it always crashes when I want to detect a song from my itunes library, even on latest iOS version on a 6s. And for this you should pay nearly 10€??

Cool and useful!

This app is worth checking out. The key finder is really cool and makes figuring out how to start attacking a song really easy. Surprisingly accurate - its fun figuring out how to play any song i want to!

something different

ive bought a lot of music apps but nothing ive seen has attempted what tomChord has. Its surprisingly accurate for acoustic songs and its a very useful tool for musicians like me who want to develop their musical ear

A great tool!

I just graduated from an audio production program and am so impressed with this app. It will allow me to recreate cool guitar riffs with my own style on it. Im excited for the music and recordings to come with this tool at my side. I fully recommend this app to any beginner players, professionals, producers, composers, recording engineers... The list goes on.

Very helpful!

Great app! Works like a charm and its really useful especially for beginners who want to learn different chord structures of songs.
