About

Hi HN, I built Contrapunk because I wanted to play guitar and hear counterpoint harmonies generated in real-time. It takes audio from your guitar, MIDI player or your computer keyboard and generates harmony voices that follow counterpoint rules to generate harmonies. You can choose the key you would like to improvise&#x2F;play in and the voice leading style and which part of the harmony you would like to play as, as well.<p>macOS DMG: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;contrapunk-audio&#x2F;contrapunk&#x2F;releases&#x2F;tag&#x2F;v1.0.0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;contrapunk-audio&#x2F;contrapunk&#x2F;releases&#x2F;tag&#x2F;...</a><p>Source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;contrapunk-audio&#x2F;contrapunk" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;contrapunk-audio&#x2F;contrapunk</a> (do open any issues if you have any)<p>Would love feedback on the DSP approach and the harmony algorithms. I am also looking at training a ML model for better realtime guitar to midi detection. I believe that will take some time.

AI Score Reasoning

Contrapunk showcases high technical proficiency in real-time DSP and Rust, but currently addresses a very narrow niche within the music technology market. While the 'Show HN' interest is a positive early signal, the lack of commercial data and team background makes it a high-risk, early-stage technical project rather than a venture-scale business.
