EAR TRAINING GAME Level 1 - Learn & Guess the Notes (C Major Scale)

[@caincrimson5556]

I'm a 23 yo visual artist and try sometimes to learn music because i didn't get the chance when i was a child ( even then i always wanted and asked). A lot of people tried to tell me it was too late to learn violin ( + i have zero senses of rhythm it's laughable ) and it breaks my heart to hear that kind of stuff when it's never too late to learn something you like when you put the effort. Thanks you for these educational free videos, it really helps people.

[@jadarion8309]

Im 23 myself and teaching myself music, proper pitch, breath control, etc. So i feel you 100% !!! 👌🏽 Keep going

I'm 23 yo as well and I'm learning viola at the Conservatory! Similarly to you, I asked to learn when I was little but couldn't. I also thought the opportunity had passed and have come through those limiting beliefs! Everyone can do music and as long as there's life, anyone can learn!

[@WorldvsTruth]

20/20. Full disclosure; I paused between most of the notes, while singing or humming to hear the relationship/distance. The listening time of this video is approximately 3 minutes and 15 seconds. I took about 5 minutes to complete it, so about 45 extra seconds. There's no reason to rush if you're going to get tensed up and make mistakes. It's far more beneficial to take things slowly at first, relaxed until the intervals become completely familiar to your ear. You can always make up or find speed recognition exercises later.

[@hswizzle4208]

Yea I have my guitar and I’m not learning perfect pitch in really just practicing my relative pitch along with humming

[@nickphaux]

Not sure what math you're on but 5 minutes is NOT only 45 seconds longer than 3 minutes 15 seconds, that would be A minute and 45 seconds longer. Unless you made a typo and meant 4 minutes instead of 5...

[@WorldvsTruth]

@@nickphaux You’re right. I “lost” a minute there. Thanks 👍

[@linkinpilot42]

10/20 I think that's actually great coz I started learning how to play by ear 10 minutes ago lol

[@Nhaithure]

19/20. Didn't pause the video even for a second, but I still feel my ear isn't tuned enough

[@amberlouize127]

I like this a lot but I definitely think there should be another level with no colors during the game part. They're fun, but once you have the associations memorized, you can just guess the notes by looking at the colors. I keep looking away from the screen when I practice so the colors don't give away the answer before my brain can process and analyze the sound lol. Very nice little game!

[@CSound]

Hi Amber 👋 thank you for your interesting feedback. Not the first message to say that so I will try to avoid colors for the next exercises even if I personally think it can have benefits for beginners who don't even know the notes. Have a great day. Peace. Lio

[@amberlouize127]

@@CSound You're welcome!! The colors definitely are helpful to complete beginners. I think they are fine for this level 1 tbh, but I do like the idea of another level similar to this but without the help of the colors :).

[@CSound]

@@amberlouize127 you're right for sur :) level 1 is coming soon and it will be more and more difficult. Peace and have a great day. Lio

[@isntitrich000]

@@CSound As a beginner, I find it very helpful. When I get confident, I close my eyes while I listen and whatever color comes up in my mind, that’s the note. I think I’ve memorized the colors to notes by now

[@MicahiLove]

Same here. I closed my eyes bc the color gives away the answer.

[@anonymouse4003]

20/20 I have perfect pitch so I can easily ace this...but even if you don't have AP you can still guess the pitch just by looking at the color on the screen...If you make another level of this test don't use colors because no ear is being trained by looking at the colors

[@maiguelmoreno9027]

Winner of a video, I've been looking for "music theory games for beginners" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Foonlant Dumbstruck Formula - (do a search on google ) ? It is a smashing one off guide for discovering how to teach your child to read music notes without the hard work. Ive heard some super things about it and my friend got great results with it.

[@yeetusyeeterofallyeets7258]

I have developed true pitch and I decided to come back to where I stared just for a trip down memory lane and believe it or not I got one wrong

[@unicornsloth5982]

I also have perfect pitch I just keep forgetting which pitch means what

[@polyo4038]

Then that’s not perfect pitch lol

[@isntitrich000]

If you’re a synesthete, you can actually train your ear by imagining the color that comes with the sound :D

[@duckyduke954]

9/20 lol I've studied music for 11 years and played instruments for 14 years and yet I've always been tone deaf

[@CSound]

Hi Ducky, actually it can also be linked to the fact that you are listening to the video with poor headphones. It's harder to get the right note if you listen on something without bass for example. Anayway, even if you were tone deaf, you can still make music so it's not a big deal. And it's always time to train your ear. With training, i'm sure you can become a tone master :) Peace. Lio

[@Sedhill]

technically only those who are deaf are tone deaf, you just outta practice more

[@WorldvsTruth]

Based on personal experience, my suggestion is to slow down. Repetition is the key - pun intended, of course. I've been playing guitar for more than 20 years, and the biggest improvements to my playing came after I slowed down everything - that is, both in practice and ear training. I had to slow down and deliberately hear what I was doing. As I mentioned in an earlier comment: "The listening time of this video is approximately 3 minutes and 15 seconds. I took about 5 minutes to complete it, so about 45 extra seconds." Take all the time you need. It doesn't matter if you take 45 minutes extra, although that may fatigue your ear. 15-30 minutes of ear training is fine - every day. 5 days per week minimum. There is no downside to developing this discipline. While your listening skills improve, other aspects of your musicality will also improve. You'll see and hear it for yourself. All the best to you in your musical endeavours.

Got all except F. Don't know why my brain always gets tricked and confuses F with E but when E is played I'm able to guess it.

[@shisu7213]

I recognize F because of "Blinding Lights" by the weeknd. Try listening to that melody at the chorus of that song a few times, and you wont have trouble with f again

[@andrewwright7360]

E and F are a semitone apart from each other - the interval is small, so it's difficult to hear. Similar to B and C, except you can feel B almost wanting to move up to C, C being established as the home key.

[@vetiarvind]

I use Indian carnatic music notes Sa ri ga ma and it's about the same notes for C (sa) E (ga) F (ma) G(pa) A (da) B (ni)
