All musicians can benefit from some kind of ear training. Depending on your instrument, experience level, and musical goals, though, you may wish to spend more time on certain areas than others. Here, we've grouped our games into a few different categories so that you can quickly find those games which will help you most.
Basic Ear Training
Are you new to ear training? Perhaps you already sing or play an instrument, and would like to get better at improvising or 'playing by ear'? Are you looking for an introduction to some of the fundamental skills addressed in ear training? These games will give you a basic overview of what ear training is all about, and get you started with a fun and effective ear training routine.
Music Theory
Do you want to deepen your understanding of how music 'works'? Would you like to be able to communicate better with other musicians? Music Theory and ear training go hand-in-hand. The patterns and relationships described in music theory are far more useful when you can recognize them by ear. These games will give your music theory skills a powerful boost, while at the same time training your ear to recognize common musical patterns.
Sound & Audio
Do you enjoy creating loop-based music? Do you want to improve your ear for recognizing different instruments and effects? Maybe you want to get a better feel for working with mixers, equalizers and PA systems? Skilled DJs, recording engineers and audio experts all have one thing in common: a sharp ear for instrument sounds, volume, tuning, and effects. This series of games will build your sonic skills and give you a better ear for tone and timbre.
