From intervals to harmony
Simple interval work when that's the job. Advanced harmony when the ear is ready. Never a waiting room, never a cliff.
Ear training for musicians
Five minutes. Then you hear more.
EarPT is a daily ear training app for musicians that meets you where you are: beginner to pro, simple intervals to advanced harmony. You hear an interval, a chord, or a short melody, then you name it. The sound is a sampled grand piano or an acoustic guitar.
Ten sessions free. Then a one-time unlock, not a subscription.
Today's set
EarPT picks you up where you are.
A short level check sets the floor. You stay in the room until it's clean, then the next one opens. Same gym from the first fifth to altered dominants.
The level moves with you
Beginner or pro — the app adapts. Fast if you're clean. Longer if you're on the edge. That's the work.
Real sampled instruments
A grand piano and a mic'd acoustic guitar. Organic color, so the ear trains on wood and wire — not a square wave.
The work
Hear it. Name it.
Start simple. More advanced when the ear is ready. Hear tones, hear chords. The floor and the map remember what you cleared.
Start simple
Hear tones
Intervals in key. The distance gets a name. Fast when you're clean.
Hear chords
Quality and color. Major, minor, sevenths. Spell the color, then take it on the instrument.
Your floor
Sessions you've cleared. Hits in gold. The graph is showing up.
More advanced when you're ready
Place the phrase
Hear a line. Put it on the staff. That's the melody, not a quiz.
Hear melody
A phrase on the staff. What you hear inside is a line you can play.
The map
Floors and rooms. Green is cleared. Gold is here.
The sound
Organic notes. Real instruments.
Ear training is only as good as what you hear. EarPT plays a sampled grand and a microphone-recorded acoustic guitar — the color of wood and string, not a toy synth.
Grand piano
Sampled keys, one voice per note. Warm enough to live with for five minutes a day.
Acoustic guitar
A mic'd acoustic guitar. Switch in Settings when you want the room to sound like strings.
Why ear training
Hear it. Then you can play it.
Ear training is learning to recognize pitches, intervals, chords, and rhythm by ear. It closes the gap between what you hear in your head and what you play or sing — so you learn songs faster, catch mistakes as they happen, and improvise without guessing.
Mind to hands
What you hear inside gets a name. Then you can put it on the instrument, without hunting.
Songs land faster
A line you hear is a line you can take. Less transcribing in the dark. More tunes in your hands.
Freedom to improvise
When the color is clear you don't have to guess. You can leave the scale — and find your way back.

How do you train to hear chords?
Listen to a voicing, name the quality, do it again tomorrow. EarPT keeps you in the room until it's clean — major, minor, sevenths, then more color.
How do you train to hear melody?
A short phrase. You hear it, then you place it. Five minutes, most days. The line sticks because you come back.
How do you train to hear tones and intervals?
Two notes, in key. You name the distance. Simple when that's the job. Wider and faster when the ear is ready.
