Hey GMC,

I found this youtube video about eartraining: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3kC_lYLAZw&feature=user

It gets even better it comes with free software (even webbased): http://www.trainear.com/

It looks very nice made and works fine. Hope you enjoy it.

Rock on. Pio Jr.

Useful tool. There are more programs like this but this concept is really good.

I have always used to learn songs by ear, and I can tell you I've benefited from it
This film shows how the basics of you can learn a song by ear, but it gets pretty logical if you just start learning songs by ear from the start. What I mean is: I don't think you should use a program when you're at scratch, just have fun tabbing easy songs or whatever, and then try to use the programs to develop further when you're more experienced. I remember Juan Valero put up a link to this program called GNU Solfege or something like that. I would probably have become bored and completely discouraged if I started using that program when I just started playing guitar, but I had great use of it when I downloaded it because I had used to play songs by ear from before then I hope you understand

Interesting thing, reminds me times of music school when I had a lot of such trainings with intervals.

In his instructional video he said we could download it (only 140-something K). Now i cannot find where, would be nice to run on my PDAphone (yeah i have a boring deskjob ).

Or if anyone else knows something free that runs on a windows ce- machine, would be much appreciated
