Displaying A Harmonically Relevant Pitch Guide
First Claim
1. A method executed on a game platform in signal communication with a display, the method comprising:
- analyzing, by the game platform, target music data associated with a musical composition to determine a musical scale within the target music data;
displaying, on the display, a bounded space comprising;
a plurality of interval demarcations based on the scale, anda background comprising a color scheme based on preselected pitches of the scale; and
displaying, on the display, the target music data.

Abstract
Described are methods, systems, and apparatuses, including computer program products, for displaying a harmonically relevant pitch guide in a rhythm-action game. In one aspect this is accomplished by analyzing, by a game platform, target music data associated with a musical composition to determine a musical scale within the target music data. Then a bounded space, such as a lane to display vocal cues in, is displayed that includes a plurality of interval demarcations based on the scale, and a background comprising a color scheme based on preselected pitches of the scale. Then the game platform displays the target music data in a manner indicative of the harmonically relevant pitches with respect to the pitch guide.
