Intervallogic 1.0.5
Based on a programmed learning model, Intervallogic offers a wide range of ear-training
exercises for musicians of all levels of experience. Intervallogic uses unlooped sampled
piano notes as well as percussion sounds to generate chords, melodies, rhythms and chord
progressions.
Intervallogic encourages practice in the high repetition, fast-paced mode that is
difficult to create in a classroom or private instruction setting. Ideally, a user will
work within a given exercise for approximately 5 to 10 minutes maximum in one session, but
may return several times a day for more practice. The scores for each exercise are
automatically recorded once the exercise ends, and can be reviewed or archived at a later
time.
In the basic identification exercises, chords or intervals are generated and presented as
multiple choice options. The overall framework is to achieve 100 correct answers within a
5 minute time limit. There is no option to repeat incorrect answers, the user is
intentionally moved forward into the next question. Immediate feedback to each response
occurs visually with the movement of the progress bars, and in the event of an incorrect
response, the correct answer is briefly highlighted before the next question is played.
While not intended exclusively for use in the Royal Conservatory system, where applicable
exercises have levels matching the grade requirements for ear-training of the Royal
Conservatory of Music (Toronto).
Key features:
-multiple user environment with individually stored preferences and results for each user
