Members Super Bass Posted January 9, 2008 Members Share Posted January 9, 2008 I don't but I got some other freeware ear trainer before that was good, I have it zipped up somewhere on my laptop. Must have a look for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DevilRaysFan Posted January 9, 2008 Members Share Posted January 9, 2008 JM5 : There are all kinds of goofy ways to train your ears for pitch....Find the pitch of things in your house that "make a sound" (like a refrigerator hum, telephone, anything.....) and guage the relationships of these tones... apply this line of thinking to things you hear in everyday life (car horn, cell beep, etc) Use this logic when testing in your class: days (or even now) before a pitch test, find the pitch of something that 'hums' in the class ( like the air conditioner or a fluorescent light hum) and - providing that it does not fluctuate - use it as a reference One of the BEST things you can do is SING the notes as you play them on piano or bass and ingrain those timbres in your brain.....listen to how the resonate in your head as you sing them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
