- Thanks everyone for your feedback on our rhythm training features. We are glad to know that they have helped so many students develop a stronger sense of rhythmic accuracy. - That's why we are proud to introduce a new "Clapping" mode, allowing you to focus on rhythmic accuracy anytime, anywhere, without carrying an instrument. Clapping mode is highly sensitive to rhythm. It will help you develop precise rhythm skills. - Whether you're on a train, waiting for a bus, or simply looking to pass the time, Clapping mode is the ideal training option.

- Improved rhythm detection for low-pitched instruments: Guitar, Cello, Double Bass, Bass Guitar, Bassoon, Trombone, Tuba - Increased text size and prevented overflow in the song list - Added the new song "Danny Boy" to Grade 2 (free tier)

- Fixed a metronome sound latency issue. The metronome sound is now perfectly synchronized with the visual beat in the score. - The Music Theory section keeps getting better. A new Interval Training category helps you build fluency in recognizing and identifying intervals. The full chromatic interval set, up to an octave, is available: minor second, major second, minor third, major third, perfect fourth, augmented fourth/diminished fifth, perfect fifth, minor sixth, major sixth, minor seventh, major seventh, octave. Two modes are available: (1) Playing Mode: play your instrument by calculating each interval from the preceding note in the score. (2) Reading Mode: identify the intervals in any given chord. Together with Aural Training, students can develop interval-recognition skills through both notation and listening. - Increased text size in many UI controls without exceeding their bounds.

- Stabilized some settings for the new Aural section: - Prevent playback from listening to its own echo. - Better localization. - Now you can turn the metronome sound on/off in rhythm mode.

- We added Aural Training to Music Theory to help students develop essential aural skills for major music examinations, including ABRSM, AMEB, Trinity, and RCM. - Rhythm & Metre: Develop the ability to hear pulse, accents, beat grouping, rhythmic duration, and metre independently of pitch. - Melody & Memory: Train short-term musical memory, melodic contour, and the ability to reproduce or recognise pitch sequences as meaningful phrases. - Intervals & Pitch: Focus on relative pitch: direction, scale degree, and the size and quality of intervals. - Chords & Harmony: Move from hearing simultaneous notes to recognising triads, inversions, harmonic functions, cadences, and chord progressions. - Fixed a critical bug in the latency detection engine.

- We listened to user feedback: The number of measures is now customizable in Custom Level, from 5 to 30 measures. - Revised notation for some songs. - If you have any enhancement requests, please send us an email or leave a comment in the App Store.

- Fine tuned some parameters in our polyphonic detection engine that tackle dissonant chords better. - Revised notation for some songs. - New songs added to Book 13 (Grade 1 and Grade 2): - Hark! The Herald Angels Sing - Aura Lee - Debussy Clair de Lune (Easy Version) - Grieg Concerto (Easy Version)

- More simple songs added to Book 13 for beginners to build solid foundation. - All added to Grade 1 and 2: - Frère Jacques - Chopin Nocturne (Easy Version) - Amazing Grace - Hallelujah by Handel - Apple Waltz - Yankee Doodle - Grieg Morning Mood (Easy Version) - Beethoven Pathetique (Easy Version) - Fixed a long existing localisation issue for Japanese and Korean. If you see English words sometimes, this update should fix the problem.

- Extended upper range of guitar to classic nylon string limit B5 (sound) or B6 (written) - Localised screenshots for a number of regions

- We are shipping this major update v3.3 with a lot of new and cool features. - Another notation upgrade to our sheetmusic render engine : ability to change clef to reduce excessive use of ledger lines. 1. The very first application is all the scale and arpeggio exercises in Music Theory section. - transition between bass and treble clef for grand stave instruments (piano and harp). - transition between alto and treble clef for viola. - transition between bass and tenor clef for cello, bassoon and trombone. 2. Also included clef change in a number of songs. - Grand stave (both hands) is now available for chromatic scale exercise for piano and harp. - Introduction of 'intonation accuracy' for microtonal instruments : violin, viola, cello, double bass, trombone. We understand that beginners often cannot play perfectly in tune. You will not be punished because your intonation is not perfect. Instead, the app will show you a yellow tick. - Green tick : Perfect intonation - Yellow tick : Acceptable hit but slightly out of tune The achievement dashboard will also show you your overall intonation accuracy. - We have added Book 13 with a number of Grade 1 and Grade 2 songs to help user build a solid foundation. 1. Jingle Bells 2. We Wish You a Merry Christmas 3. Liszt Liebestrume (easy version) 4. Scarborough Fair 5. Oh! Susann 6. Bach Petzold Minuet in G Minor

- We have significantly improved our polyphonic detection engine and harmonic cancellation algorithm. Detection in songs (both hand) and chords is now faster and more accurate. - Added 'Happy Birthday' to Grade 1 and Book 12. - Fixed a UI bug.

- Stretched the upper range limit for a number of instruments so that 3 octaves can be used in scale and chord exercises. - Further improvement on rhythm detection. - Better A0 and B0 detection in chromatic tuner.

- Improved polyphonic detection engine and latency correction algorithm. - We applied our up-to-date low pitch detection algorithm to all tuners. Following tuners have become much more efficient: Full Range (low), Cello, Double Bass, Guitar, Bass, Saxophone (Tenor and Baritone), Trombone, Tuba - 3 octaves are now available for all scale and chord exercises (if note range is allowed for selected instrument), which benefit students who are preparing for Grade 4 exam or above. - Accidentals and half-step smart spelling have been applied to labels on fingerboard, fretboard and pitch meter. - We have also optimised detection for extremely high pitch, especially for violin and piccolo.

- We applied our up-to-date low pitch detection algorithm to all tuners. Following tuners have become much more efficient: Full Range (low), Cello, Double Bass, Guitar, Bass, Saxophone (Tenor and Baritone), Trombone, Tuba - 3 octaves are now available for all scale and chord exercises, which benefit students who are preparing for Grade 4 exam or above. - Accidentals and half-step smart spelling have been applied to labels on fingerboard, fretboard and pitch meter. - We have also optimised detection for extremely high pitch, especially for violin and piccolo.

- Intonation accuracy requirement is now adjustable by users. Low: minimum accuracy acceptance while still ruling out complete out of tune. Medium: higher accuracy acceptance for day-to-day intonation practice. High : performance level accuracy is required to pass the note detection. - Intonation hint is now also available for trombone. - Improved low pitch detection further. - Fixed spelling of accidentals for many scale and chord exercises. (We are also planning to enable smart spelling for note labels on pitch meter and fingerboard hint in future version)

- New feature 'intonation' hint is added in this relese. For microtonal instrument learners such as violin, viola, cello or double bass, pitch accuracy is indispensable. You can now slowly develop this skill through our new intonation hint function. A pitch meter will help you identify whether you are playing slightly lower or higher than the expected note. We so far made the requirement of pitch accuracy slightly higher in this mode so students can focus on their accuracy check. In future version, we will make it adjustable by users. We will support this feature for trombone in next version. Stay tuned. - We have generally improved note detection speed so the rhythm timing can be slightly tightened to give you better rhythm accuracy check, especially for low pitch instruments. - New composer added: (Our very first ragtime composer) Scott Joplin - New songs added to Book 12: 1. The Entertainer by Scott Joplin 2. Maple Leaf Rag by Scott Joplin 3. The Seasons - April (Snowdrop) by Tchaikovsky 4. The Seasons - October (Song of Autumn) by Tchaikovsky

- Restore Purchase: To avoid further confusion to many users, we added a 'Restore Purchased Item' function to clearly indicate that our app is one-time purchase only. This is mainly for the following situations: 1. Users who have purchased and re-installed the app on a new device. 2. Users who want to sync their purchased item across iPad and iPhone signed-in with the same Apple ID. - New composers are added: 1. Edvard Grieg 2. Maurice Ravel - Songs added to 'Book 11': 1.

Theme from Hungarian Rhapsody No.6 by Liszt 7. Consolation No.3 by Liszt

Fixed bug and stabilised the 'Melodic Randomness' algorithm.

- We are proud to introduce a new feature called 'Melodic Randomness', which allows users to control how notes are generated in Full Flow Sheet Music mode using advanced machine learning algorithm. Lower coefficient gives the practice more natural feeling and sounds a lot more like real music. This feature also helps users build stronger common pattern recognition skill. On the other hand, higher coefficient helps users develop fast speed of random note recognition and reaction. - We have also made great improvement on note detection. Detection speed for low pitch instruments has been significantly improved by supplementing FFT with YIN algorithm. - Instruments that benefit from boost of note detection efficiency: 1. Cello 2. Double Bass 3. Bass Guitar 4. Bassoon 5. Trombone 6. Tuba

- Fixed a type of rest duration mismatch issue for a number of songs. - New composers added to the list: 1. Weber 2. Scarlatti - New songs available across different albums: - Allemande, Op. 4 No. 2 by Weber - Waltz in A major, J 146 by Weber - Sonata in D minor, K. 9, L. 413 by Scarlatti - Sonata in C major, K. 159, L. 104 by Scarlatti - Emperor Concerto 2nd movement by Beethoven - Der Dichter spricht by Schumann
