EIGHT TRAINING MODULES + BEGINNER WARMUP
• Warmup: a guided first session that sets difficulty for you while it learns where your ear sits.
• Intervals: 13 distances, unison to octave — ascending / descending / harmonic. Optional MIDI input.
• Chords: triads, 7ths, 9ths, extensions and altered dominants, every voicing on a sampled piano.
• Progressions: cadences and Roman-numeral function; train the ear for harmonic motion.
• Scales: 20+ Western modes with full degree quizzes.
• Microtonal: maqam, Hindustani, Carnatic and gamelan tuning systems.
• Melody: 4-to-10-note dictation with note-by-note feedback.
• Rhythm: whole notes to 64ths — triplets, polyrhythms, ties, double-dots, meters from 3/8 to 4/2.
• Timbre: seven production drills (frequency ID, EQ, compression, reverb, saturation, filter, bit-crush) through real AVAudioUnit DSP.
