Go to the newest live version here!
Tuning trainer is a web app for ear training. It plays pitches to test a player's ability to hear whether a pitch is sharp, flat, or in tune, and by how much.
Eventually, this will feature a quiz-style format using several levels of difficulty. Unisons, octaves, intervals; harmonic and melodic (and in between). (More detail at a later time.)
Intervals quiz has been added here!
This new version allows you to choose intervals to test, not just unisons.
We've also moved the app to Heroku for live deployment. This should be more flexible and easy to work with in the long run. Links have been updated to reflect the change.
Updates to the flat/sharp quiz here!
You can now define how accurate you want the incorrect pitch to be. Options range from as much as 30 cents out of tune to as little as 5 cents.
We've also worked out some usability bugs.
First quiz is up! Try it out here.
This is a flat/sharp test at 30 cents out (yikes). We'll play a base pitch, then play a unison out of tune in either direction. Give an answer as to how the second note is out of tune (is it flat or sharp?).
It works with a mouse or with keyboard only and allows replays. Soon, it'll keep track of your running score during a session, and we'll work out the glaring bugs!
Idea based on my struggles with hearing intonation.
