Why the addition of premium? This is the best option to keep updating and creating tools for musicians of all kinds to practice with and (hopefully) benefit from. Premium or not, we are committed to having a fully-featured experience. Your support and love for music is why we do what we do.

2 more days of our crowdfunder to go, and today's MiniMotet-based-on-a-well-known-tune is one for all the #Monteverdi fans. To paraphrase, sure he was great, but nuns did it all in wimples and chronically sleep-deprived. #nuntastic #earlymodern #GirlsGotPolyphony 1/

If you want to ease in, start with fill in the blank quiz mode where you only need to figure out a select number of notes to complete the melody. If youβre ready to dive into the deep end, start with the full melody quiz mode. Happy aural skills training! #auralskills

Our latest big update is out for Aural Skills Trainer! We have a new topic: melodic dictation. With over 125 human-composed melodies (by Nathan Foxley, MM), youβll practice hearing notes and writing them out! #musictheory
iOS: apps.apple.com/us/app/aural...
Android: play.google.com/store/apps/d...
Last week was the target for our next release and that will be pushed back until this week. The melodic dictation portion just wasn't as good as it needed to be so postponing was the best, if not ideal choice. Thanks for your patience and updates will be forthcoming.
