Compare your singing or playing with reference notes, inspect intonation and review earlier passages. Replay detected melodies as notes, with optional pitch rounding. For vocal practice, mute the original singer while keeping the extracted melody as a reference. Follow synced lyrics, hear the accompaniment and see how closely you match the song.
