Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: A Better Way to Learn! Comment: Ear Master has two components that have sold me to the product. Besides the conventional ear-training excercises, there is an area dedicated to jazz ear training. For those of us who improvise, wish to improvise and just wish to improve...the excercises allow you to "hear changes". Also there is a section that allows you to isolate any area that is giving you problems (ex>sus 2 versus sus 4 chords harmonically) and constantly have excercises given to you to really learn and eventually HEAR the change. I highly recommend this to any musician. Customer Rating: Summary: EarMaster 5 Comment: I got this product because I wanted to practice pitch recognition (i.e. hear random pitches, match them with the right note (a flat - g sharp) The product gets 2 stars because the box and ads say it has pitch recognition, but does not explain what kind. (You discover that when you open the box, download the software, and destroy your chance to return it.)
**(041708) In response to a comment: What it DOES do is pretty good. For that I'd rank it four stars. (The average of those two issues ends up as a 3.)
It allows practice of intervals, note patterns, "which note is higher" excercises, etc, as well as letting you choose between "classic"/guided exercises, jazz type exercises, or customizing the lessons it has available. It even allows you to select what type of intervals to practice (ninths and fifths, just seconds, major/minor chords, etc). It also allow you to respond and see your practice sessions using piano or guitar formats.
It's a decent product, but its packaging does not explain itself well.
