A question about the purpose of playing Route VI – I have a feeling this game could have a significant impact on ability to compose own music and create chord progressions. Can someone explain to me what this game is all about? Is it more about recognizing the sound of specific chords that serve a specific function in a progression (which scale degree)?
I admit that I've completed a dozen or so stages by deduction, simply recognizing which chord is minor and which is major. Also, checking the hints from the lifebuoy gives me a lot to think about and made me realize that I often can't recognize the correct bass line – is that crucial?
It helps on live playing, sometimes you can be in a situation where the singer plays and sings, suddenly he wants to play a new song on the spot, and you (the band member), don't know this song, if you're used to recognize chords and progressions, you'll not only transcribe it more accurately and faster on the spot, but also will find your brain will memorize the chords or progressions faster. Then again, this is only my experience as a performer pianist/keyboard player, it helps also to detect patterns on the studying room.
You'll notice in time, with experience that, when you study 1 subject, you're actually studying more than 1 thing at the same time, and it will be helpful in the future, maybe you're not seeing it now, but then, if you persist, you'll remember.
Hi guys, I got a subsciption to this website a few weeks ago, the experience I had prior to this was a few months of daily musictheory.com ear training exercises, I really don't want this to come across the wrong way. but, my results claim I'm in the 99.30% for Chordelius, I'm on about level 140, however I noticed in other games, I was already surpassing the 50 mark at about level 7 I believe. Do we all think these statistics are accurate? I would not want to overstate, or understate my own achievements. Thank you!
I also noticed that in every exercise you get over the 50% rather quickly. perhaps there are a lot of dead accounts of people that logged in only few times counted, otherwise it is a bit weird. also, is there a reason why we can't see the stats of other people?
I'm on Level 429 of Chordelius and on a Percentile of 99.83%. I would hazard a guess that the Percentile figure is not to be taken absolutely literally and is perhaps skewed upwards in order to encourage participants? Also, to make substantial progress in a game you have to play it on its own over and over – and I would guess some games are not played nearly as much as others. So, you could probably get a high percentage relatively quickly on the lesser-played games. Chordelius is so much easier if you play a chordal instrument as opposed to drums. But it's worth noting that when you get into the high 90%s you often have to clear many Levels to move your Percentile mark. I was stuck on 99.94% of Interval Barks for one thousand Levels – Level 334 to Level 1,334!
My tip would be to focus on the 6th. Get used to singing up the scale with major 6 then minor 6. Both scales have minor 3rd minor 7th. Eventually the minor 6 will jump out to you - that's the natural minor sound.
Certain games like Bassionist work out best on the tablet. Hitting the correct button fast enough with the mouse is not doable for me. Anyone struggles with this too? And the inversionist is so hard if you don't have a piano by hand to compare inversions. After 4 years I am still at level 4.
Voices aren't inherently good or bad, they just are.
To test how well you can sing, just record yourself singing something you like and then play it back to see if you hit the notes you were trying to hit.
Some components of good singing are: matching pitch, holding pitch, controlling dynamics, controlling vibrato, and good production with focused breath. A lot of these depend on having a good ear and sensitivity to the musical context, not just the quality of the voice itself. The first step of any good art is to observe well (listening for musicians, seeing for visual artists, feeling for all artists).
If you listen to yourself and find yourself wobbly on pitch, overly breathy, or not matching well with the musical context and artistic intent, you still have work to do. Hint: We all always still have work to do. :)
