EarMan helps you learn to recognize musical intervals by ear.
This affordable, no-nonsense application that can help anyone improve their skills with a structured curriculum and fully customizable practice sessions. A good ear is the key to musicianship and it all starts with intervals. This is why we made EarMan. Completing a training session in EarMan takes about 1-2 minutes, only a fraction of a typical tutored lesson. All sessions are graded immediately and results are made available in the results section of the application.
There are two basic training modes in EarMan, the Quick Session and the Curriculum. Quick Sessions offer a way for "spot learning". Interval set, range and playback direction are configured on the fly. These sessions are available at any time and can be used to practice just in between or to prepare for the next Curriculum session.
Much thought went into the design of this application. There are high resolution playback samples, a calm interface designed to keep you focussed on the sound, interval songs to help memorize the base intervals, but above all EarMan is meant to be a constant companion.
