This is an ear training app made by a musician for musicians. Whether you play jazz, pop, classical, or any other style, the relative-Do solfege approach is basically the only effective relative pitch approach that allows you to play anything you hear by ear. Interval training, while helpful in a way, is way too slow to apply extensively in a practical manner.

The method of recognizing the 12 solfege syllables: do, di/ra, re, ri/me, mi, fa, fi/se, so, si/le, la, li/te, ti based on their characteristic sound against a tonal/key center is widely taught in conservatories.

Short of having perfect pitch, this is basically the only way to keep up in improvisations and jam sessions. This training won't be easy. As anyone teaching this method will tell you, it will usually take at least months or even years of hard work, but once you succeed, you'll just be able to play anything by ear. This app aims to provide a graduated training ramp up that will hopefully make the process easier.

This app can also help practice absolute pitch by using the pitch name input mode instead of relative-do solfege syllables.

Features:
· Play reference cadence in any key to train in any key, major or minor
· Ramp up starting with one note and work up to eight notes together or played in series
· Customizable settings to train specific scale degrees or octaves
· Streak counter to track progress
· Practice using solfege syllables, scale degree numbers, or pitch names

One if the best ear trainer apps out there

If you know Charlie Banacos’ method for ear training this is perfect except for the fact that you can’t answer multiple notes without the octave order. It would be great to have it as an option to practice with the note colors rather than the voicing structure.

Works great! Sound can be a problem but easy fix

It works great and perfectly fulfills my needs. I was having a problem with sound, but it was because my phone was on silent mode. If you turn silent mode off it should work

Sound

I am having issues hearing the sound as well, but if you connect your headphones you will be able to hear it. Not ideal, but a work around.
