Level of difficulty

The app focuses on microphone input and works with your voice and the majority of instruments. It contains exercises for active and passive hearing, and covers the majority of the sound elements used in lessons (scales, triads and four-note chords with up to two tensions, slash chords as well as over 150 chord progressions in jazz, pop and classical music). However, the app is also suitable for musicians of other styles and all levels, and can be incorporated easily into lessons. The mobile app (Google Play and Apple Store) costs CHF 6, the MacOS app CHF 10.
