@yataqii: I made a simple chord detector using the short-term Fourier transform! The currently playing notes get matched with the closest chord by treating a set of notes as one vector, and using cosine similarity to find the most similar chord vector. This approaxh works well for just the major and minor chords, but it's harder to detect chord extensions accuratel with this (quite simple!) approach. #mathvisualization #fouriertransform #creativecoding #mathanimation #musictheory
How dependent is the accuracy on the timbre? like if you use an organ sound with a characteristically loud 3rd harmonic is the algorithm worse at detecting the chord?
