»Better Ears« comes with a virtual keyboard and virtual guitar fretboard. You can key notes on either.


ANSWER WITH YOUR VOCALS OR WITH A REAL INSTRUMENT

The integrated pitch detection allows you to answer the questions with your voice or a real instrument (e.g. piano or guitar). Simply play the individual tones on your instrument or sing them when the microphone button lights red.

Interval Training

I’m finding this app very helpful leaning my intervals. I’ve used other simpleton apps and I was struggling but with this app I’m extremely pleased with my progress. Although, it could be just that I’ve spent more time on my piano since my first run at interval training.

I find the keyboard at the bottom with the starting note labeled and able to play it with triggering it as ‘your answer’ very helpful for the learning phase. It’s also great practice to count-off your intervals on the keyboard for transferring your answer to the visual interval on the keyboard.

I’m sure it’s me but this thing is addicting and I can’t wait for the next session and am racking up two or three short practice sessions a day because of the extreme convenience of using an iPad.

Awesome

If you're look to better your musical ear this is the app for you, I helps you hear the differences in pitches, chords, while helping you learn scales, intervals. If you want to hear better and have more knowledge in music theory this is a great app.
