This app is an extension of the famous exercise from page 69 of the Philip Farkas book the Art of Horn Playing. The developer has done a great job of expanding the challenge that that exercise has given horn players for many years. Really excellent job!

Awesome implementation of the famous Farkas exercise! My only issue is if you chip a note and land on the note right after the blip it still counts it as correct. The tuning settings do not affect this. It would be nice to have mode that doesn’t allow for bad attacks.

Developer Response
Thanks a million for the feedback. I agree completely that there should be a mode which takes into account inaccurate attacks, and it is definitely in the pipeline. It might take a little while as there are some technical challenges to overcome to ensure that it works consistently and is not frustrating for the user. Meanwhile, enjoy!

Improvements under the hood. Hopefully fix note detection issue on iPhone 16.
