Gesture-enabled interfaces, systems, methods, and applications for generating digital chord and lyric compositions

A system comprising:

• one or more non-transitory storage devices for storing instructions;
• one or more processing devices configured to execute the instructions stored on the one or more non-transitory storage devices;
• a touch screen display that includes a capacitive sensing medium, the touch screen display and capacitive sensing medium being communicatively coupled to the one or more processing devices;
• wherein execution of the instructions causes the one or more processing devices to:
• generate, on the touch screen display, a gesture-driven composer environment that facilitates the creation of a digital music composition based on gestures detected via the capacitive sensing medium, wherein the gesture-driven composer environment is configured to:
• detect, via the capacitive sensing medium of the touch screen display, the gestures for defining and inserting lyric notations corresponding to the digital music composition;
• detect, via the capacitive sensing medium of the touch screen display, the gestures for defining and inserting chord notations corresponding to the digital music composition;
• determine alignment information that correlates positioning of the chord notations relative to the lyric notations;
• store the chord notations, the lyric notations, and the alignment information with the digital music composition;
• and
• update the touch screen display to visualize the chord notations and the lyric notations in a manner that visually aligns the chord notations and the lyric notations;
• and
• in response to detecting a selection of an audio playback option, translate at least a portion of notations stored with the digital music composition to analog audio signals to facilitate playback of the digital music composition.

A computerized method implemented via execution of computing instructions by one or more processing devices and stored on one or more non-transitory storage devices, the method comprising:

• generate, on a touch screen display, a gesture-driven composer environment that facilitates the creation of a digital music composition based on gestures detected via a capacitive sensing medium, wherein the gesture-driven composer environment is configured to:
• detect, via the capacitive sensing medium of the touch screen display, the gestures for defining and inserting lyric notations corresponding to the digital music composition;
• detect, via the capacitive sensing medium of the touch screen display, the gestures for defining and inserting chord notations corresponding to the digital music composition;
• determine alignment information that correlates positioning of the chord notations relative to the lyric notations;
• store the chord notations, the lyric notations, and the alignment information with the digital music composition;
• and
• update the touch screen display to visualize the chord notations and the lyric notations in a manner that visually aligns the chord notations and the lyric notations.
