Ear training as a competition. Six disciplines, five tiers, global leaderboards. Race the clock solo, or buzz it out with a friend on one device.
Ear sport. Step in the ring.
Most ear training apps train. Arena makes you compete.
A sound plays. You have seconds to name it. Faster answers score more. Streaks stack. Miss one, the streak resets. Ten questions, total score, one shot at the leaderboard.

SIX DISCIPLINES
▸ INTV — interval recognition
▸ CHRD — chord type identification
▸ INVR — identify the chord inversion
▸ MELO — name the scale-tone melodic pattern
▸ OFKY — pick the chord that doesn't belong in the key
▸ MIXD — random pull from all five
FIVE TIERS
Student → Musician → Performer → Virtuoso → Maestro. Each tier widens the vocabulary and tightens the screws. Beginners aren't drowned. Experts aren't bored.
SOLO MODE
Ten questions against the clock. Your score is total points across all answers. The first time you finish a tier × discipline combo, you choose whether to put your score on the board. Pick a handle, hold a spot. Thirty boards in total — one for every tier × discipline combination.
HEAD-TO-HEAD MODE
Two players, one device, landscape orientation. Twenty questions. First to buzz answers. Wrong buzz costs a point. No second chances. Brutal. Fun.

NO STAFF NOTATION. NO READING. NO THEORY REQUIRED.
You hear a sound, you name it. The app is built around what your ear actually does — not what the textbook says it should.
NO ACCOUNT. NO EMAIL. NO TRACKING.
Pick a handle when you submit a score. That's it. Your runs are anonymous by default. We collect only what's needed to run the leaderboard — handle, score, average speed, best streak. If you never tap submit, nothing leaves your device.
PAY ONCE. KEEP FOREVER.
$9.99 USD. No subscription. No ads. No in-app purchases. All future updates included.

Part of the jAMSKOOL family of music apps. Built on the philosophy: ears not eyes.
