 Hello everybody! In this video, I'll show you how to recognize a song or learn the name of a music track by its melody. Quite often, you hear a great song on the radio or on YouTube, but you have no idea about the artist or the name of the song. However, there are many tools and applications for Windows, Android or iOS meant to recognize music online or from the microphone. Dear friends, if you need to recover deleted data, use utilities by Hetman Software.

Our channeling blog offers solutions for any issues from installing the operating system to remote administration and connecting mobile devices. Our specialists will be glad to answer your questions in comments to videos and articles. I'll give a brief review of these applications, test their work, and tell you about their advantages and disadvantages. Here we go. Let's begin with online services for music recognition. Somehow, there are only a few services like that on the web, and not all of them work properly. I had the chance to evaluate AudioTech.info. You will find the link to this service in the description. The utility has a multilingual interface. To recognize music, you should upload a file from your computer or paste a link. To recognize a music file from the computer, click on Choose File, select it, and click on Upload. Enter the security code, and here you are. The utility refused to work with URL links to a music file, and I have no idea why. You can try it for yourselves. This bug might be fixed later. To do it, copy the link to a music track you found on the Internet and paste it into a special field. After that, click Next. For Google Chrome, there is an extension to recognize music online called Aha Music. You will find the link to the official web page in the description. This utility is also available in Chrome Extension Store. To recognize music, install the extension and it will appear as a blue icon in the extension bar. After that, go to the page containing music files and play the track you want to be recognized. It doesn't matter if it is a music file or a video file. Now, click on the extension icon. The track is recognized. Please note, the extension works with the track currently playing. If you need to recognize a track located on your computer, this extension can help you as well. To do it, start Google Chrome and drag the music file you want to identify right into the browser. As a result, it will be played in the browser. While it is playing, click on the extension icon. And it will recognize the track. As you can see, identifying music tracks on the computer is quite possible, though it's not too convenient. However, today most people use either Android or iOS smartphones that have their own tools for similar purposes. So, if you use an Android device, you should know there is a built-in widget – Google Sound Search. But check if it is in your widget list, and if it is there, add it to your Android desktop. Usually, it can be found in the latest versions of Android. If there is no Google Sound Search widget, you can download the utility called Sound Search for Google Play from Play Market. Install it and add the widget that appears – Sound Search. To recognize the music track, start the application by clicking on the widget. And play the music. As soon as Google Sound Search recognizes the track, it will open a page in Google Chrome with the information about it. Of course, the application requires an internet connection. In addition to the built-in solution by Google, there are also third-party apps to help you find out what's playing. The most popular and well-known is Shazam. I will leave the link to Play Market in the description. To recognize music, start the app and click on its icon. Then play the track you want to be recognized. As soon as it is identified, the application will show its name and artist, a video clip, if there is any, and links to other songs by this artist. The program saves all tracks it has ever recognized. The second popular app is Sound Hound. I will leave the link to Play Market in the description below. When it comes to recognition functions, they are based in principles similar to those in Shazam. Start a track and click on the Sound Hound icon. Besides, this app can help you listen to top music selections broken into groups by region and genre, add them to playlists in Google Play Music and read their lyrics. Talking of iPhone or iPad, Shazam and Sound Hound are also available for free in Apple App Store and recognize music easily. You can also ask Siri, the iOS Assistant, about the music playing at the moment. Most likely, Siri will help you, provided that you have an active Internet connection. Unfortunately, there are not so many utilities to recognize playing music for desktop computers. Previously, Windows Store had Shazam for desktops, but it has been removed. There was a number of programs to recognize music for computers using Windows, but most of them don't work nowadays, and some are only managed to read and edit tags. Frankly speaking, their work doesn't look well. That's all for now. I think the methods I have shown today will be enough to help you recognize music.
