User Reviews for Complete Ear Trainer

Can teach even the thick-headed

Wow. This app is changing my world! I’ve been in composing classes and in awe of all the students who just hear the chord types off the bat. That seemed like such an unattainable dream. I have been using this for about five weeks now and the results are astounding. I got stuck on phase two in “easy mode” for about ten days, trying to distinguish between harmonic fourths and fifths. I tried about a half hour a day and got so frustrated and felt so stupid. But one day I had a breakthrough and can hear SO much better! Chords and relationships that were opaque are crystal clear now. This is really helping my composing and the pitch when I sing. It’s also really helping me retain melodies that I write for much longer. Now that I can hear all the jumps in them, my brain can stop floundering and remember so much more. This app was EXACTLY what I needed and will highly recommend it to my friends.

My ear is middle-aged...and so are my eyes!

Haven’t taken music theory since the 80s. Back then I had a near-perfect ear and 20/20 vision—not so anymore, fellow travelers! This is a really great app, as thumb-based ear training goes. But some of the chapters that precede the exercises use small, light-weight fonts and the screens can’t be stretched. So if you really need to know the three alternate names for a diminished fifth chord, you may need a magnifying glass to read the superscript.

Best app out there!!!!

Been using this app on and off for years now and my ear has gotten to the point where i can hold my own in sessions with other guys that got their training at a college.this app does not bother you with annoying notifications to tell you to practice, if you're not motivated then this app doesn't sugar coat it. It take lots of practice And it's not gonna make you a good musician but it has the tools to give you an amazing ear.

Not enough time

This is the best ear training app I have found. It has flexibility and great sound quality. The only problem for me is I did extremely well with the first stepsI mastered them right away. When I got to harmonic chords I hit a wall. I have been stuck for 6 months working on it several times a week. The requirement of 4 seconds for each chord is too short. Could you make an adjustment to 6 seconds? Thanks.I changed my review to 5 stars. It is very challenging and most useful. Thanks, Stephanie. Any plans to add chord progressions?

Fun and useful

I absolutely love this app and may be a little addicted. Right now I’m on Level 2 in classic mode and it’s enough to be challenging. Typically if I don’t pass the first time I will the second or third time. The levels are very thoughtfully laid out. Love that there is an easy mode for more casual learning and classic mode for advanced musicians. I have really enjoyed challenging myself and retraining my ear with this app!

Well worth getting!

Helped me immensely and I have been a musician for a long time. I wish I had had this forty years ago when I first started playing. Do yourself a favor and get this app. (By the way, I am not even sure if I have ever written a review for an app, maybe at some point in the distant past.)

I like it, but…

I got all the way through “Easy Mode” and then started “Classic Mode,” which is definitely more difficult. There, I am stuck in Level 1 (of 4), specifically on Chapter 4, Major and Minor Chord Inversions. I can easily distinguish between triad inversions presented in melodic (arpeggio) form, but cannot do it when presented in harmonic (chord) form. I have probably tried 100 times or more. I think the problem is that I am hearing overtones of the piano, rather than just the notes struck. In any event, I wish the app creators or someone would provide some help getting past this point.

Very good ear training app!

I’ve downloaded and tried a lot of ear training apps, and this one is the best by far!One feature though that would be very useful is if for the chord training challenges there was a setting that allowed you to see the actual chord that was being played when the chord type is revealed i.e G7#5 rather than just 7#5

Amazing App for Aural Skill Classes

This app will help you tremendously in Aural Skill classes. You can constantly practice ear training whenever you want to! Many features as well. The apps price is so low and it’s worth buying overall, whether as a beginner or professional musician. It allows for you to build your listening skills at your own pace, plus you can create personalized practice exercises. Music majors, get this app.

Best ear trainer on the App Store.

I’m a professional classical musician and this is the best ear training app I’ve ever used. This one is easily the best to date. My only requests are 1) that they go back to the old leaderboard format. This new internal leaderboard system requires an account to be created and there are no people on the leaderboards anymore when there used to be thousands. 2) the melodic dictations start with a cadence to give you the key and sound like Melodies from a normal piece of music (at least for the earlier stages). Right now the Melodies sound random and it’s hard to find a tonal center. But the best thing about this app is it’s difficulty, so maybe it’s better to do dictations without this and to solely rely on intervals.
