Sections of the application The app contains a tuner, in which you can tune your voice to the note you select, being able to see on a staff how close you are to singing the exact note. The tuner can also be used with the piano; use it to tune your instrument and get it ready to play. You can also use it to warm up your voice before singing. The exercises section is divided into different levels of difficulty (beginner, intermediate and advanced), with which you can start from scratch and progress in your learning. It contains a number of distinct types of exercises. Some in which you practice by singing using the microphone and other exercises in which the voice is not needed because the user interacts by touching the screen to learn the notation -spelling- and sound of the notes. In addition, it includes a scoring system with which to measure your progress. The exercises are: - The musical notes - Note spelling - Train your ear - Sharps and flats - Sing the notes - Singing intervals - Singing sharps and flats You can compose your own sheet music in the application's editor. Create a composition, listen to it with different instruments and try singing it. This tool allows you to use different types of clefs, time signatures and key signatures. Also, the app includes a section of (voice-controlled) games to play using your voice as the input mechanism to govern the behavior of a character, so you keep practicing while having fun. Put your vocal cords to the test and warm up your voice with the different exercises. The collection of voice-controlled games will continue to expand, so pay attention to the updates. Recommendations and permissions It is recommended to use the application in low noise environments, so that the microphone mainly captures your voice or the sound of your instrument. Although it is designed to tune the human voice, try using another instrument (in the appropriate scale) to the microphone: piano, violin… and tell us about your experience. We will continue to work on SolFaMe to offer a great tool to musicians and singers, both for learning for beginners and functionality for veterans. The application requires permission to use the microphone for the tuner and voice training exercises. SolFaMe does not collect any information or record the user's voice, for more details see the privacy policy. ----------------------------------------------------- This app has been created and developed with the collaboration of the ATIC research group of the Universidad de Málaga (Spain).
