Up until now our online perfect pitch trainer only had 2 virtual keyboards – piano and guitar fretboard. Today we are adding a new option – bass guitar fretboard.

If you play bass guitar yourself, we hope you will like this new addition! 🙂

In our collection of virtual instruments we already have 8 bass guitar sounds (2 fingered and 6 picked). If you want to download them on your computer here are the links: Pastabass, Unreal Instruments Multi Articulation Bass.

We are introducing the “test” mode for 2- and 3-note exercises, that is when you identify several notes played harmonically (at the same time).

This exercise is actually one of the first exercises recommended by David Lucas Burge in his Perfect Pitch Ear Training SuperCourse. He calls it “ear opening drill”.

Since our Perfect Pitch Trainer has a built-in tuner, you can perform this exercise exactly as recommended by David.

The program will play two randomly generated notes. If you are just a beginner, it is easier to start with major and minor thirds. Your goal is to first sing the bottom note, then the top note.

When you do your ear training in this way, we recommend unchecking the option “Wrong octave is considered as an error”.

We are happy to announce that we are add a new feature to our Perfect Pitch Ear Trainer – a built-in tuner.

Now you can answer the questions using your microphone and have an instant feedback.

We hope this new feature will be especially helpful to people who use the ear trainer to develop the singing voice.

You can also use it if you play a musical instrument and want to learn how to play by ear.

We compiled a list of several tips how you can use tuner to develop perfect pitch.

During the last couple of weeks we made some updates to make our online perfect pitch trainer mobile friendly.

That includes:

• an option to display only the notes from selected interval on the virtual keyboard.
• a slider under the virtual keyboard that allows you to scroll it, if it doesn’t fit completely in your screen.
• the support for iOS is partly implemented – the single note exercises (both practice and test) are working fine now.

We updated the algorithm, so the audio files would not preload automatically in your browser. If you are on a mobile devices it can save you a couple of megabytes of data.

Now only the audio for the default interval will be loaded once you click the play button.

The new algorithm works fine with desktop browsers and on Android devices. The support for iOS is coming very soon! 🙂

We are happy to announce the release of the guitar fretboard in our online perfect pitch trainer.

Up until you could only practice with virtual piano keyboard. Now, if you play a guitar, it will be much more natural for you to practice using the virtual guitar fretboard.

We have several guitars, both acoustic and electric, in our collection of virtual instruments.

What is also cool is that you are not limited to the guitar sound, you can choose ANY instrument, for example, flute or piano and still practice detecting notes on a guitar fretboard.

We added some tips for development of perfect pitch. They include:

• choosing the right environement
• practicing on only one instrument
• using high-quality headphones
• using the middle range of your instrument
• regular practice
• the importance of state during the exercises.

We expanded our collection of virtual instruments.

Now you can practice with high-definition sound of 80 different instruments, including piano, guitar, bass guitar, violin, cello, flute, trumpet, clarinet and much, much more.
