Guitarr Intervals Ear training for intervals. Two notes sound, you name the leap between them. Nine drills, a library of all thirteen intervals, and the guitar neck. Ear Examiner — hear the leap, name it. Same or different — two leaps, one decision. Mix-ups — the pairs that get swapped: minor and major third, fourth and fifth, fifth and tritone. Which is larger — two leaps, pick the bigger one. Chain — three notes, two hops, name both. Inversion — hear the leap, then the way back. Fourth and fifth, third and sixth. Song hooks — which song starts like this? Guitar neck Find on the neck — hear the leap, tap it on the fretboard. Build it — the start is marked, land on the second note. Standard tuning, twelve frets, every position that fits. Library Unison to the octave. The short label (m3, P5, TT), the semitone count, both notes on a treble staff, and a button that plays it. Song hooks 27 songs as memory aids. Jaws for the minor second, Star Wars for the fourth, Twinkle Twinkle for the fifth, Somewhere Over the Rainbow for the octave. The real opening plays, not just two notes. Swap the song for any interval you like. Settings Four levels, from five intervals up to all thirteen. Playback ascending, descending, together, or mixed. Sharps or flats. Also A small home screen widget. XP shared with the other Guitarr apps. 28 languages. Guitarr Intervals Pro Examiner, the library and the fretboard are free.
