I'd have run my speakers into my chromatic tuner. :P
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

I don't know what good that would do, since the ones I'm talking about are, for example:
- Reading finger positions on a guitar
- Reading ligatures from sheet music
- Figuring out which chord (I think?) certain music is in

There are others, too, and several others that require sheet music, but I don't remember them specifically.

Fingering positions on a guitar is easy. The strings are, from top to bottom bottom to top, E, B, G, D, A, and E. Each fret, starting with the first, is a semitone up from the open string, and the semitones are C, C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, and B.

If a chord is played properly, sending it's sound into a tuner will produce the chord's name, as the collective frequency will be the same as the raw note.. or something like that. I can play an E chord and my tuner says it's an E note, so that's cool.

I don't even know what a ligature is, so you're screwed there. :P

I'm pretty sure he's working in conjunction with people who know music well enough. ;)

I'm working with one other person who knows music exactly "well enough", although we do have tons of trouble with some. It was totally by fluke that we recognized the song in one (Fur Elise), since his mom uses it for a ringtone on her cell. :)

Haha, that's awesome.  Well, I guess it makes it that much more impressive that you've plowed through the levels! :)

Unless they, say, tune their guitar differently.

I knew someone'd mention that. I'm pretty sure they're going to have a guitar in standard tuning for something like this, because you can't see what tuning it is from a picture. Well, unless it's so dropped that the strings are literally hanging, but you still can't see what note that'd give.
