Real-time jamming is automatically assisted for musicians. A real-time audio signal is received of played music that is played by at least one person. Beat is tracked of the played music from the real-time audio signal and accordingly a time of a next beat is predicted. At least one of chords; notes; and drum sounds is recognized from the real-time audio signal and repetitions in the played music are accordingly detected. A next development is predicted in the played music, based on the detected repetitions, including at least one of chords; notes; and drum sounds that will be played next, and respective timing based on the predicted time of the next beat. A real-time output is produced based on the predicted next development in the played music.

A simplified playing method and music notation system for the learning and teaching of playing the guitar, banjo, ukulele, or similar stringed instrument, primarily for use as accompaniment to singing. One embodiment of the method is comprised of 2 parts: 1. A notation system which specifies non-standard tuning information (24), specifies movable chord fingering information[(40), (42)], and uses numbers (20), letters, colors (64), or symbols to specify the fret space locations to implement the movable chord fingering, and 2. A modification to the instrument, adding a corresponding (numbered, colored, etc.) fret designation visual aid [(34), (68) to indicate where to place the movable chord fingering on the neck of the instrument. Since most chord changes are made simply by moving one simple chord shape up and down the fretboard, and the notation system is very easy to read, learning to play the instrument becomes significantly faster and easier.

A string depressing device is useable to fret at least one string of a stringed musical instrument. The string depressing device includes a frame that, when adjacent to a fingerboard of the stringed musical instrument, extends both along and across the fingerboard and above the strings. A plurality of protruding compressible resilient members extend from the frame toward the fingerboard. When the frame is pressed against the fingerboard, each protruding member sufficiently depresses an underlying string to fret that string. In an operative position, some of the protruding members are positioned over corresponding strings at desired positions along the fingerboard. A capo can be placed around the neck of the stringed instrument and over the frame to press the frame towards the fingerboard. This presses at least some protruding members against corresponding strings, and effectively frets those strings against the fingerboard at the desired positions to form a musical chord.

An adjustable chromatic harmonica incorporating an adjustable mouthpiece where, for each mouth-hole, the player's breath may be selectively connected to one or more available reed cells. This is by means of a rotatable cup-shaped valve, with an opening or port in its side, being mounted in each mouth-hole such that the port can be registered by rotation with one of a group of surrounding air ducts, each of which is connected to one or more reed cells in the body of the harmonica. In some embodiments an apertured slide is interposed between the mouthpiece and the body. In some embodiments devices are provided for rotating the valves in independent groups while the harmonica is being played. In embodiments where each group of mouth-holes can be independently adjusted, a large number of physical states is possible. Consequently, some embodiments have the capability of playing chromatic melodies and several common chord types in all twelve musical keys.

Provided are a mobile device, a method for operating the same, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium. The mobile device includes a touch display configured to sense a user input; a memory; and a processor configured to examine, upon receiving the user input for generating an audio file from the touch display, characteristics of the user input and characteristics of a first audio included in first audio data stored in the memory, generate melody data based on the characteristics of the user input and the characteristics of the first audio, generate a second audio based on the melody data and chord information included in the first audio data, and generate the audio file by combining the generated second audio with the first audio.

The invention provides a device for music theory comprehension. The device includes a base portion and a first stencil. The base portion includes a plurality of marks. Each mark includes indicia representing a musical note. The first stencil includes a first interior shape, wherein the first stencil and the base portion are selectively positionable relative to each other. At each of a plurality of predetermined positions determined by the plurality of marks, the first interior shape of the first stencil surrounds multiple marks. The multiple marks include indicia representing seven musical notes representing a unique chord family.

An electronic musical interface performs the following: displaying a chord function progression of a first segment of a musical piece that is to be played by a user in a first region of a display via identifiers specifying respective chord functions; playing back an automatic accompaniment of the first segment; receiving user performance data as the user plays the musical note input device along with the playback of the automatic accompaniment; analyzing each chord contained in the obtained user performance data to determine the chord function of each chord the user played; and displaying, in a second region of the display alongside the first region, an identifier that identifies the determined chord function of the chord the user plays so that the user can determine whether the chord function of each chord the user played matches the chord function of the chord displayed in the first region.

The invention discloses a music work generation method and a device thereof, a music work synthesis method and a device thereof, equipment, a medium and a product, and the generation method comprises the steps: obtaining accompaniment chord information and melody rhythm information corresponding to an accompaniment template, wherein the accompaniment chord information comprises a plurality of chords, and the melody rhythm information is used for limiting the rhythm of a to-be-determined note synchronized with the chord in a to-be-acquired music melody; formatting a composition interface according to the melody rhythm information, so that the composition interface displays the time value information of the to-be-determined notes of the music melody according to the melody rhythm information; obtaining the music melody from the composition interface, wherein the music melody comprises a plurality of selected notes, and the selected notes are notes in a harmony tone path corresponding to chords synchronized with the selected notes in rhythm; and in response to a work playing instruction, playing the music work containing the music melody. According to the method, the user can be efficiently guided to create the music melody, the music work is formed, the auxiliary music creation means are enriched, and the auxiliary music creation efficiency is improved.
