4:12 this is the "attention (to the right thing) is all you need" idea that led to the recent breakthroughs in AI. If you give your brain enough good data, and pay attention to that data in the right ways, your brain will come up with amazing connections that you could never consciously program into it. You restated this very well here 11:34 too.

I've been working on my audiation and everything in this video is so helpful. It's absolutely a mashup of theory, scales, triads, chord progressions etc. Its opened up my eyes to something I always thought was impossible for me to do. Takes time and practice but it's fun practice.

Im only a couple seconds into the vid lol but something that gave me a slight skill spike in moving from apps to musical context was actually going over the same content in functional ear trainer but in three different ways. First master the lesson while using singing to help if needed and taking as much time as I want. Then still taking my time but only using audiation (no singing or any sort of sounds). Then answering immediatley without any thought or delay. I noticed once I got to the third method it felt completely different, I realized I was doubting my answer almost everytime but it was still correct... that moment of doubt eats up a lot more time than you think when you are trying to analyze something realtime. Once u get over that moment of doubt u will actually be able to keep up with much faster stuff.

Soon-ish. Entering beta testing in the next week or so. Then hopefully release within a month but it may be longer if unforseen issues come up.

Hi Max - I really jive with your mental model for this stuff; thanks so much for sharing. Quick question: When you’re listening to - and attempting to improvise over - a song in mixolydian (e.g. B, F#m, A, E, B), is it “okay” to perceive the tonic as the first note in the mixolydian scale (B) or would you recommend training away this tendency until my brain always perceives the tonic as the root of the relative major scale (E)? I guess the same question goes for minor key songs (i.e. do you think of the root of the relative major as their tonic). Thanks again!

Good question! I definitely recommend staying true to your ear's natural inclination in terms of tonic perception. In your example, I would be hearing and thinking of B as the tonic for sure. At the same time, I am aware of the relative modes, but mixolydian is the fact. My experience has consistently taught me to trust my ear above all else. If I perceive B as the tonic, B is the tonic. Trying to force another perspective can be valuable in certain circumstances, but it often results in a mental illusion where I think I'm hearing something that I'm actually not, only to later realize that.

Two general questions 1. Do I get a confirmation mail if I sign in for the email notification 2. When is the app about to launch ballpark wise (a few days/weeks/months)

1). No, I turned them off. Would you prefer to receive one? 2). Ballpark is within the next two months, possibly very soon depending on a few factors. Beta testing will soon begin...

Hello Max! I’m not good at English but I would like to ask that when I’m doing Melodic Dictation I’ve always have some part that I wrote the actual pitch example if the key is Bb I heard an F I should write G because I’m not perfect pitch but sometime there always one or two notes that I’ll write the actual pitch not Move Do , What Exercises should I focus on Thank you 🙇🏻🙇🏻

@@sorawitch75 You mean you've heard a melody or something in a certain key, then you go to transpose it and you find that the actual pitch of the notes feel stuck in the old key?

@@sorawitch75 So the main point is learning to feel a new note as the tonic. Take a simple melody, like a nursery rhyme, and sing it in some key. Then play a new starting note on your instrument and start trying to sing from there. If you can't, play the melody on the instrument and then sing it. Repeat and repeat. With time, your mind will figure it out and your ability will increase. This can also be done with single intervals instead of whole melodies. Pick a tone, sing a 5th above, pick a new, sing a 5th above it, etc. I will still get confused with this from time to time. Sometimes I simply get stuck in some key or some scale and I need to force my ear to shift by playing something.

So basically, finding the home note is essentially the first step. Then you can work from their.
