PitchVis is a tool designed for real-time musical pitch visualization, offering users a way to see musical pitches represented visually with color. It performs live pitch analysis and translates musical notes into a color-based display, allowing users to explore and experience their music in a new visual format. This approach is intended for singers, music teachers, and anyone interested in engaging with music through visual feedback.
The platform provides both a web version and an Android app, enabling users to access its features on desktop and mobile devices. In the web version, users can select their audio input source through browser permissions or system settings, such as a microphone or system audio. On mobile devices, the tool automatically uses the microphone as the input source. The visualizations are interactive, with highlighted areas in the interface that provide explanations about different parts of the display, helping users understand how to interpret the visual feedback.
PitchVis is positioned as a resource for music practice and education, with demonstrations available for choir music and piano practice. The tool requires browser permission for audio capture and recommends enabling screen auto-rotate on mobile for an optimal fullscreen experience. Users are advised to close the browser tab to stop the web version, as it does not stop automatically.
