Ever wanted to answer Anki cards by playing your guitar?
No?
Well no you can play a chord to reveal the answer, play another to rate the card.
- Any major or minor chord, or single notes (exact octave or any octave)
- Pick a key and it assigns one chord per action
- A readiness bar shows when the next chord will be accepted โ you must mute the strings between commands, so one ringing
chord can't fire twice
- Settings tune the input threshold to your room's background noise, and how long it waits between chords โ a live dB meter
shows what your microphone is hearing
- Ctrl+Alt+G stops listening instantly
Requirements: Windows, Anki 25.09 or newer. Talks to the Windows microphone API directly โ no cloud, no API key, no
recordings saved, no extra packages installed
Note: testing was done using laptop microphone and guitar only. I have not tried with other instruments, but in theory it should work with anything that makes music.
