Reviews: What People Think About Melody Ear Training
Abeman21
Rating: 4/5
If you are looking to get better at identifying intervals and transcribing melodies by ear, this app is fantastic.
Transcribing a whole melody is much harder than identifying a single interval. This app let's you control the length of melody ( up to five notes ). It gives you the first note, and you play the rest on the keyboard. A great exercise to do over and over.
Despite the suggestions below, it's a good solid app.
A few suggestions for improvement:
- Allow users to pick and choose what intervals the melody is composed of. It's nice to get rid of those nasty minor sevenths so you can work on the intervals you care about. The difference in difficulty between diatonic and chromatic is too much. Perhaps allow the user to pick a scale.
- Separate the play and next button. I'm frustrated when I can't listen o the pattern once I've played all the keys.
- Give the user a chance to get each interval right on the melodies. It's frustrating when you blow the first of five melodies and can't get the remaining ones because of it
- Increase the range of notes. It is very tailored to the key of C right now. It's good to practice in a wide range.

With great elegance and configurability, the app is a nice tool for learning to hear notes better. I love how this app can serve me as a beginner and with the right settings can challenge or stump my wife, who has a much more developed ear.
I'll be recommending this app to kids and adults. One small tip: on the screen after submitting be your answer, show both my answer AND the corrected answer, so I can mess around more and try to hear the difference between my answer and the truth.

I never write reviews but this app has been a lot of fun and is a pleasure to use. When they say "highly addictive piano game" they mean it, so watch out. I didn't believe them at first, and then my afternoon disappeared.

MIDI In – Plug in your MIDI keyboard to enhance the experience! (Core MIDI compatible)
MIDI Out – If you have a music instrument app (such as a synth) that can run in "background mode" and accepts virtual Core MIDI, you can play Melody Ear Training using the sounds of that app.
---
Tips for the Beginners:
Start with "2 Notes" for the melody length, set the difficulty to "Diatonic", and set the "Scale" to "C".
Use the + and - keyboard range control to set the keyboard to a small range such as "C, D" or "C, D, E".
Keep practicing, and as you progress you'll want to make the range larger.
---
Tips for the Pros:
Set "Feedback" to "Never" and turn on "Autoplay" to play continuously without ever missing a beat. Crank up the tempo to see how fast you can go!

About the Difficulty Setting:
"Diatonic" uses notes from a major scale. This setting is recommended.
"Random Tonic" uses notes from a random major scale each time.
"Chromatic" mode is the "extreme mode" where any combination of notes is possible. As a result, strange intervals like the Augmented 2nd (ex. F to G#) are possible.

About the Score:
Melody Ear Training is all about self progression. Tap the score to reset at any time. The game goes on forever and the music never ends!
