No shortcuts · put in the reps

The practice room. Tools that make you earn every note — read a tune, then play or sing it back until it's clean. Warm up and get to work.

Phrasebook

Collect the licks and phrases you love in staff notation, add the chords, then drill them through all twelve keys and every mode. Theory is the grammar — this is what you actually say.

Chorale Ear Trainer

Hear a few bars of a Bach chorale, then name the chords you hear in Roman numerals. Real four-part harmony, real Bach — the same chorales students have sharpened their ears on for 300 years. The harder cousin of the arcade chord quiz.

Ear training · pitch

Pitch Practice

Pure note ear training — no game. Hear a short sequence off a reference tonic and name what you heard. Pick the length, choose pentatonic up to fully chromatic, and stay in C or move through every key.

Play by ear · reading 🎤 listens to your playing

Melody Trainer

Read a tune on the stave and play or sing it back — your mic listens, and the cursor only advances when you land the right pitch. Ukulele, guitar, banjo, piano or voice — and it comes loaded with 200+ real tunes: jigs, reels, fiddle tunes and trad jazz.

Song Trainer

Learn a song by its chords and strumming, play along in time, then dig into the key, the scales you can solo with and the theory behind it. Chords & theory only — no lyrics.

Backing track · jam

Jam Track

Write a chord chart like a real lead sheet — drop chords over the bars, pick a style and a tempo, and the band plays it back on a loop. A band that never gets tired of backing you — solo over it, jam over it, train your ear on the changes.

The Listening Lab

Solo over jazz and blues charts in any key — and the lab listens. Set your own rules (pentatonic, blue notes, chord tones, passing tones), then see your solo written out and graded, note by note.
