Ear training

Tell pitches apart, name notes, intervals and chords, remember a tune.

Pitch Test
Which of two tones is higher? Find your limit.~2-3 min
Perfect Pitch
Name a note with nothing to compare it to.~2-3 min
Intervals
Hear two notes and name the interval between them.~3 min
Chords
Hear a chord: major, minor, diminished or augmented?~3 min
Melody Memory
Hear a tune once, then pick it out of three.~2-4 min

Rhythm, Morse code and reaction

Keep a beat, decode Morse code by ear, or react the moment you hear a sound.

Rhythm Test
Tap along with a beat, then keep it going.~1 min
Morse Code
Hear Morse code, type the letters. How many in a minute?~1 min
Audio Reaction
Respond as soon as you hear the sound.~30 sec

Do you need headphones?

Not usually. Laptop and phone speakers work, but headphones help in a noisy room and with low notes, which small speakers lose. Avoid Bluetooth for the Audio Reaction Time Test: wireless headphones hold each sound back a moment before playing it, and that delay lands on every round.

Do you need to read music?

No. The Melody Memory Test only asks you to compare tunes by ear, and the Chord Recognition Test puts the chord names on the buttons. The Perfect Pitch Test is the exception: naming the note is the test, so you need to know the note names.

Is this a hearing test?

No. The sounds come from your own speakers or headphones, at whatever volume you chose, and nothing is calibrated, so a score says nothing about the health of your ears. For a real hearing check, see an audiologist or a doctor.
