Hi HN! I'm Gabe, the creator of Songcraft.
I shared early versions of Songcraft on HN, and I'm so grateful to the community for the feedback. I've incorporated a ton of these ideas and others. Songcraft is now fully collaborative as well :)
I'd love to hear your thoughts and answer any questions you may have. Please drop a line here or via Intercom on the site, or shoot me an email @ [email protected]!

I run an online collaborative songwriting platform (https://songcraft.io). With the quarantine, I'm going to be pushing to launch a matchmaking system for songwriters looking for collaborators. I've already heard from a bunch of people who are looking for new ways to collaborate on music.
If you're in this space at all, I'd love to chat!

This is really great! For your progressions section, are all of the progressions added manually? It would be cool to have a way to generate or manipulate them more flexibly.
I'm the founder of Songcraft (https://songcraft.io), an online songwriting platform, and we've tackled some of the same problems. It'd be great to connect! My email is in my profile if you're up for a chat.

Hi HN!
I'm Gabe, the creator of Songcraft.
I shared early versions of Songcraft on HN, and I'm so grateful to the community for the incredible feedback. I've incorporated a ton of those ideas, and I recently did a major rewrite to simplify the editor and make writing collaborative in real-time.

I've really enjoyed working with Tone.js! Many of Songcraft's (https://songcraft.io) audio features are powered by Tone.js. It's been a great way to manage loops, samples, etc. It makes it quite easy to do things like playing notes or chords in time with a looping metronome. Generally really nice for managing a global audio track with volume, mute, etc as well.

That's really interesting. When I was exploring implementing standard notation, I also came across ABC notation. If/when I take on standard notation, I think ABC notation would be very reasonable to implement for import/export. Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you so much. That's the balance I'm aiming for, but there's still room to improve!

Exactly my thoughts! I don’t think that’s necessarily a bad direction to go, I just want to make sure I do it the right way.
