Description
GuitarParrot - Intense Ear Training!
Improve your melodic listening, focus and playing abilities by playing "Follow the Leader" with your iPhone/iPad and your guitar.
GuitarParrot brings the classic "Follow the Leader" game to a whole new place. Your phone or tablet! Start off easy, then increase the level as you improve! Work in all 12 keys, with many scale choices. Develop your abilities to hear notes and melodies and instantly land them on your guitar! Why is that useful? If you are a musician trying to improvise or learn songs, it becomes much easier as you connect your ear to your instrument. Any virtuoso musician will tell you that ear training is extremely important to musical growth. As an instructor, this is a game I play with students of all levels. I created this app to expand the game beyond what a normal human (me) could offer:
Scale - choose from 4-note, 5-note, Major, Minor, and Custom scales.
Keys - all 12 keys are available.
Octaves - two octave settings let you explore the neck more completely.
Levels - each level adds 4 notes to the melody. Level 20 is 80 notes long. Can you beat it? How about with a Chromatic scale?
The game can be played on iPad or iPhone, using the built-in mic or a guitar interface like iRig or a similar device. You can also use wired headphones with or without a built-in mic. Bluetooth is not supported at this time.
Instead of poking a note on the screen or touching colored lights in sequence, this app makes you play your own instrument. There is no visual assistance, it requires you to play using your ear.
This app is an incredible practice tool that should be a part of a complete program. A good instructor will show you how to apply the scales and notes to songs you may be learning.
As your short-term memory develops, you will retain other things you hear more easily and spend less time hard memorizing things!
