Hear what the music is doing

Earloom trains your ear to recognise intervals, chords, and scales and modes, one short session at a time.

Coming soon to the App Store for iPhone and iPad

Short sessions that fit any day

Every session is ten questions. Listen, replay as often as you like, play the root note on its own for reference, then choose your answer.

You see straight away whether you were right, and you can tap any answer to hear it from the same note and compare.

Three families, step by step

  • Intervals, from the minor second to the octave, ascending, descending or together.
  • Chords: triads, suspended and seventh chords, then inversions.
  • Scales and modes: major, the three minors, the church modes and the pentatonics.

Each family starts with a few contrasting sounds and adds new ones level by level.

Explore any sound

Tap an interval, chord or scale to hear it and see its notes on a piano keyboard, spelled the way a textbook would spell them. Pick any root note.
