@petrnuska@mastodon.world Interesting talk and discussion on the project and its challenges. Regarding data acquisition for guitar, how does the technology you’ve implemented pick up on muting? Sometimes a finger mutes a string by itself but might look like it’s fretting a note instead, and sometimes one finger frets one note and mutes an adjacent string at the same time. Of course, the muted string won’t sound, so it shouldn’t show up, but crossreferencing that sounds time consuming.

@cassana@the-crossroads-inn.com Thanks for diving into my work so deeply and asking great questions! Theoretically, the MIDI pickup only converts the measurable tension (for each string) into a MIDI event, so if there's no tension (i.e. no note being played), it should not produce anything. But in practice, it often misfires on something (most typically an overtone). So there's a need to do a lot of semi-automatic (and indeed manual) data cleaning after each session :-)
