Hey Product Hunt! 👋 I’m the creator of ch3 music editor. Traditional notation software often feels too heavy and bloated, easily interrupting the creative flow. On the other hand, traditional plain-text notation can feel too abstract, lacking real-time musical feedback. I wanted to build a tool that preserves the clean efficiency of text while delivering the intuitive, real-time interaction of a physical instrument. That is the core philosophy behind ch3 music editor. It’s not just a music DSL that compiles and plays directly in the browser; it’s an editor heavily optimized for musical intuition. Here are a few features I’m particularly proud of: 🎨 Circle of Fifths Highlighting: No need for rote memorization—instantly see harmonic relationships right inside your text. ⏱️ Temporal Sync Highlighting: Automatically marks symbols that are synchronized on the timeline, making multi-part alignment crystal clear. 🔊 Interactive Cursor Audio: Simply move your cursor close to a note to hear instant audio feedback, bringing your text completely to life. You can easily use it to sketch melodies, handle complex harmonies, and align multi-part arrangements — the app opens directly into a live demo ready to play! ch3 music editor is a paid tool, but I provide a powerful, signup-free web trial. I am officially launching today and I'm incredibly eager to hear feedback from music creators and enthusiasts on this "text + intuition" interaction design. Give it a spin, and let me know what you think! 🎹
