Harmonomics Ear Training for Android

As a player that has a decent to above average ear- using relative pitch (... my own self appraisal based on considerably accurate transcriptions I’ve done of works or solos from instruments that are both my own and other instruments ; real-time response to harmonic or melodic stimuli within live improvised playing situations ), I find this app really challenging and fun. You can chart your progress and see your challenges. For example : it is interesting to see that i consistently has problems correctly identifying perfect fourths or fifths - as I would get confused of the vantage point and incorrectly identify one for the other and the inverse - a problem of perspective. The categories of exercises cover a wide array of ways to qualify one’s current aptitude and offer alternative approaches for assessing material with a healthy range of criteria across the intervallic ; melodic and harmonic spectrum. I found this app at a great time in my musical development and I find anytime spent using it to be of value and generative. It can be a little stressful to know a timer is ticking as you hesitate to produce an answer ; along with being a little bummed when you see your score ( if it’s less than what you’d like it to be), but it is an honest and somewhat objective proof of where your ear is at for the moment. There is a self imposed emphasis I’ve placed on have deep stuff to play or say musically ( and I’m sure that will continue )... but all that pursuit only stands to benefit from returning to something fundamental and crystallize a further attenuation with arguably the most basic aspect : how I listen.

Really, really useful app. I saw improvement right away.

Great app, but some of the functions (diatonic major melody, for instance) are only available in C major. When doing these sort of exercises, I like to imagine myself playing along on my instrument. It’d be great to have other keys to practice in.

I’ve only been working with this for a day and can already report that, while there are some other helpful ear-training apps...and I have tried many this is hands-down the best one! The thoughtfulness, planning, organization, and intuitiveness that went into this is hugely impressive. It’s a serious app- not a toy. It literally can be used to train and help the very beginner to the experienced professional. Bravo! The fact that the exercises are open -ended is great... meaning you simply end a session when you want rather than having the app choose a predetermined number of questions. You will need no other ear training apps. Just get this one if you are lucky enough to stumble on it. My only complaint.. which isn’t really a complaint against the app itself is that for me it didn’t come up high enough when I did a simple search for “ear training” apps.. then I found it briefly and then accidentally closed out then searched through dozens of (far weaker) ear-training apps.. hoping it would appear on the “you may also like” lists. Thankfully I found it again after 20-39 min but this should be the first option to appear! Get it !!

This app is the best for ear training. It should be a required app for amateur and professional musicians. I was just wanting an one octave relative pitch app. This is so much more even with perfect pitch. I like the awards as well. I’ve gotten 60% to 90% on one’s I’ve tried. I’ve just begun and didn’t think I had a very good ear. I love this app so much, thank you for making it. This app is a steal at this price.
