jaxius Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 (edited) Do you ever find yourself humming a song whose title, to your frustration, you don't know or can't remember? New search Web site Midomi is designed to actually identify that song for you in as little as 10 seconds. Launching in beta mode on Friday, Midomi allows people to search for a song by singing, humming or whistling a bit of the tune. The site then offers search results that include commercially recorded tracks or versions of the song recorded by others who have used the site. The technology also lets people listen to the exact section of each of the results that matched their voice sample.

d4v1d05 Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 Alot like shazam in the UK, except that's done on mobiles by calling 2580, they then send the name/title and can even send a ringtone... apparently... :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533248-this-website-can-name-that-tune/#findComment-588262404 Share on other sites More sharing options...
leovanham Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 I actuely thought about creating a site like that with the same concept a while ago but i figured that i don't know enough about voice recognition so i left it alone. :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/533248-this-website-can-name-that-tune/#findComment-588262409 Share on other sites More sharing options...
chopyaedoff Posted January 26, 2007 Share Posted January 26, 2007 It doesn't work very well - I tried about 10 different song and it didn't match any.
