Beat Scribe vs IntervalEar

A metronome you can compose. A metronome gives you a click. Beat Scribe gives you the whole rhythm — written on a staff, looping back, in real note values you can actually read. Hear a rhythm in your head? Tap it in and hear it back in seconds — quarters, eighths, sixteenths, triplets, dotted notes and rests, not abstract grid squares. That link between the symbol and the sound is the point: practise reading what you play, or sketch a groove without picking up the instrument. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Tap a rhythm live on the pads, or place notes on the staff for exact notation • Drop in beamed rhythm cells — two eighths, four sixteenths, dotted figures and more • Hit play and loop it back instantly • Layer parts across tracks — ride, snare, hi-hat, bass drum, toms and cymbals • Shape the feel of each track — swing or shuffle (8th- or 16th-note), or nudge a part ahead of or behind the beat for a human push and pull • Work in any meter — 4/4, 3/4, 5/4 and beyond • Keep time with the built-in metronome • Share any groove as a playable link — free, and it plays in any browser • New here? A short guided tour walks you through it, replayable any time • Made for iPhone and iPad MADE FOR Drummers, musicians, students and teachers — reading practice, building a groove, or catching an idea before it disappears. FREE & PRO The free version gives you snare and hi-hat across two tracks, plus sharing — enough to build and play a real rhythm. Beat Scribe Pro (one-time purchase) unlocks the full kit, more tracks, save / load, and importing your own sounds.

We won't promise you perfect pitch — for adults that's next to impossible, and honest apps shouldn't claim otherwise. IntervalEar trains relative pitch, the skill every musician actually uses: hearing the distance between two notes. 20-LEVEL TRAINING PATH, ALL FREE. Start by telling an octave from a unison, then add fifths, fourths, thirds… up to all 12 intervals. Ascending melodies first, then descending, finally harmonic (both notes at once). Pass each level at 90% accuracy. Levels unlock purely by your own progress — nothing is behind a paywall. MISTAKES ARE THE LESSON. Every wrong answer offers "hear it again" and "compare": the correct interval, then the one you chose, back to back until your ear locks in the difference. Replay as often as you like before answering — no penalty. NOTE NAMING, ALL THREE TIERS OPEN. Hear the reference note C, then name the target note. White keys, all 12 notes, or memory reference (reference plays once per session). Unlimited sessions. VISIBLE PROGRESS. Accuracy curve over your last 30 sessions, per-interval mastery bars (weakest on top), and your top 3 mix-ups. DAILY PRACTICE. One 3-minute session a day keeps your streak alive. THREE LANGUAGES. English, 简体中文, 日本語. About ads and privacy: all training content is free, with a single banner at the bottom of the screen. Your practice records stay on your phone — never uploaded, no tracking, and no "Allow Tracking" prompt. Apart from that banner, every feature works offline. Prefer no banner? A one-time "Remove Ads" purchase is available in Settings. It only hides the banner — it does not unlock anything, because everything is already free.
