Seems like you'd build up a great dataset for training an automated hum -> song classifier if this gains traction.

- confounded 9y agoShazam for humming. It could be huge!
- kamac 9y agoThis already exists [1], although I'm not sure how accurate it is. [1]: https://www.midomi.com/ https://www.midomi.com/
- derwiki 9y agoCame here to look for this. IIRC Midomi launched as an app for feature phones? (Razr-era)
- smnscu 9y agoUsed that maybe 50+ times, it NEVER gave me anything remotely accurate.
- croon 9y agoSame here. I'm sure it would work if I already knew the song I'm humming, and could sing the lyrics, but that would defeat the purpose of the service. I have great melody memory, terrible title and lyrics memory, and good pitch, and it has never helped me the many times I've tried to figure out what song I got in my head.
- jakubp 9y agoMidomi is fantastic. We made a game out of it: you'd pick a song a try to sing it to Midomi (not hum). If it guesses what you are singing, you score. Note this is for amateurs and for drinking parties :) it doesnt have a lot in the catalogue, but it has enough. Super fun :)
- xeromal 9y agoShazam has that feature years ago. You could hum a tune and it'd try to find it. I don't recall it being that good. My memory might be failing me though. There was another competitor to shazam with an orange soundcloud like logo that also has song id. It could've been that app. Edit: It was soundhound and it supports humming https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.melodis.midomiMusicIdentifier.freemium&hl=en https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.melodis.mi...
- udfalkso 9y agoSoundHound. I never had success with the humming feature though.
- forgotmypw 9y agoIt supports it, but it doesn't work that well in my experience.
- crowbahr 9y agoI definitely had success with soundhound. No Rain by Blind Melon was stuck in my head but I couldn't remember the band. Hummed the riff and had it in no time.
- zerostar07 9y agoyou sing well?
- Sohcahtoa82 9y agoI'm not the person you asked, but I can tell you that I sing very poorly, yet have gotten SoundHound to recognize songs.
- gerardnll 9y agoI think its about doing the notes correctly, not the voice. I think it could even work with your mouth closed.
- hailk 9y agoSoundhound also works fine with humming/singing. It isn't perfect and I have an indian accent.
