In this variation of the Interval exercises, Intonation Trainer will play, or hold, the tonic note while you play the specified interval. Listen closely This exercise demonstrates the slight differences between various tuning calibrations. The Chart Maker portion of Intonation Trainer is one of highlights of this program. Since no instrument plays completely in tune, and since no two instruments play the same, it is important for students to understand what they need to adjust to play in tune on their instrument. The Chart Maker can help.
Students start by selecting a note they want to add to the chart.
Then, the program will listen to the student play that note in context. When holding a sustained pitch we will often unconsciously adjust it to bring it in tune. By analyzing what you play within a context of other notes, Intonation Trainer will give a more accurate representation of your instrument's tendencies. Simply choose the notes you want to test, and then play scales, exercises or other music. Intonation Trainer will then print a summary chart for each note to show how close in tune you were.
