A standalone audio processing engine + app with a web ui for the Raspberry Pi and other ARM based SBCs, that let's me use NAM models from tone3000 for guitar effects. Two channels with gains, noise gate, NAM, eq and reverb.

A web app for my music needs - metronome, ABC notation editor with MIDI playback and PDF render, an embedded YouTube video player with a chapter/section creator based on timestamps and a looping feature for the chapters for practicing

https://metro.scopecreeplabs.com

https://metro.scopecreeplabs.com/abc

https://metro.scopecreeplabs.com/video

Offline first, everything is saved to Local Storage. Sharing is also purely serverless - the ABC text and the video chapter defs are shared via query parameters after compression and base64 encoding.

Tech: React, Material UI, ToneJS, ABCJS, CloudFlare (Pages, Workers, D1 Storage)

Next: Add an AI assistant to the ABC editor - editing ABC text gets painful fast.


iOS game to learn rhythm and drums [0]. It's MIDI based. Midi files to use as the tracks to practice on and Midi controllers to use as input. Here's a demo with my son on electronic drums [1]

Tech stack: Swift, UIKit, SpriteKit

Working on Symph (https://symphmusic.com), a web app for musicians that lets you synchronize measures/bars in a music score with timestamps in a YouTube video. Demo video: https://youtu.be/az6IENwtn78

It's like Songsterr, except you get to reuse your existing music scores (PDF/PNG/JPG). I am using a supervised ML model to auto-detect the music bars in the score.


Definitely interested in collaborating. My skillsets range from web (NextJS, React), React Native, native iOS, native Android, embedded systems (firmware and hardware).

I have a 12 year old autistic son. He attends ABA therapy. I am also looking to create tools and apps that can help him communicate better. Also, he's very musical, so I am looking at better ways to help him learn piano (he loves Simply Piano but I want something that let's me define a custom lesson plan based on MIDI files of songs he loves).


This is more problematic with the USCIS immigration helpline bot. You don't have the option to yake your business elsewhere.

Trying to get the phone bot to let me talk to a human at USCIS is like talking to the Avrona Kern AI from Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky.

Me: The typographic error submission site throws an error when I try to use it.

Avrona Kern: We have a website to submit typographic errors.

Avrona Kern: Would you like to receive the link via SMS or email?

Me: That site doesn't work! Agent.

Avrona Kern: Would you like to receive the link by SMS or email?

Me: Agent

Avrona Kern: I can help you.

Me: Agent

Avrona Kern: If you keep asking for agent I will end the call.

Me: Typographic site throws error

Avrona Kern: We have a website...

Me: FML

Googling revealed that there are some keywords that make Avrona give up and let me through. Not gonna reveal that here, in case they close those loopholes and some poor schmuck is left with no options.


This will be more relevant to the desis here. I am developing an audio quiz web app based on YouTube clips from Indian movies[0]. Films and songs have an interesting appeal to desis and I am trying to explore it with tech. Stack: NextJS and ReactJS

I use Netfliy and its Nextjs build plugin that automatically creates serverless functions for the api routes, does ssg and deploys. All under the free plan.

Very inspiring. Congrats! Can you talk a bit more on the EE consulting line item and the certifications for TinyPilot? I am trying to prototype my own hardware design[0] and would like to learn from your experience.

As a foreigner, gerrymandering[0] baffles me. Someone please explain how this makes sense?
