  • Play notes harmonically or melodically during your pitch practice

    We added a new option to our Perfect Pitch Test for multiple-note exercises.

    Up until now the notes in such exercises were only played harmonically (simultaneously). Now you can also listen to them when they are played melodically (one after another).

    It can be a very good way to increase the difficulty of your pitch practice, especially if you are a beginner. If you started doing the exercises for developing perfect pitch, you probably realized how important pitch matching exercise is. Once you are comfortable with singing one note, you can start practicing singing two notes.

    Detecting both notes played harmonically may be somewhat challenging for beginners. In this case start practicing with notes played melodically.

    An additional option allows you to choose how the notes will be played melodically: from the bottom to the top, from the top to the bottom, or randomly.

  • Even more tuner settings for your pitch practice

    We have a good news for people who use a microphone to answer the questions of our Perfect Pitch Test.

    We added a new option “Consider only in-tune notes”. What does it do?

    As you may know, when you do your pitch practice exercises and sing or play the correct answer using your microphone, the program will react only to loud sustained sound.

    Let’s say, you should sing the note C to answer correctly to the test question.

    If this new option “Consider only in-tune notes” is ON, the program will react only to in-tune notes. If you sing the C in-tune – you will see the message “Correct!” If you sing any other note in-tune – you will see the message “Wrong.” If you sing out-of-tune, the program will patiently wait until you start singing in-tune.

    But what happens if this option is OFF? If you sing the C out of tune, the program will still wait until you get the note right. However if you sing any other note out-of-tune long enough, the program will show you the message “Wrong.”

    As you can see, the chances to get the “wrong” message are higher in the second case.

    Hopefully this new option will help you with your pitch practice exercises!
