I can’t possibly tell if this is worth it over leading class labeling tools in audacity. There is a sign up with no pricing and no mention of limits.

Why would i have a good impression if my first experience is a sunk-cost time-sink dark-pattern?

So disrespectful of your potential users time.

xhevahir•5mo ago
I haven't used Audacity lately but I don't know of any plugin or feature that transcribes music audio into abc notation.
iainctduncan•5mo ago
Well if you transcribed to notation, then pitch clases is trivially easy. And not really useful?
re•5mo ago
It's not super clear but I don't think it does automatic transcription for you; I think it just provides a text editor with syntax highlighting, and that it syncs the scrolling of the rendered output to (prerecorded) audio playback.
nylonstrung•5mo ago
Can you recommend labelling tools to use instead
politelemon•5mo ago
This just loads with the word processing displayed, nothing else
Timwi•5mo ago
Same here.
sublinear•5mo ago
I don't why this doesn't scroll the music staff smoothly, nor have a cursor clearly showing which note is currently being played, but as a result this is almost unusable for sight reading.

Jumps around way too much and god help anyone trying to use it that way if the tempo were to suddenly change or there are longer notes to play than the width of the screen can comfortably show at once.

This is why music is usually broken up into rows of a fixed width and the screen is scrolled vertically instead of being displayed as one continuously scrolling horizontal staff. It gives the eyes a reasonable buffer to work with.
