Tips for the Beginners:
Start with "2 Notes" for the melody length, set the difficulty to "Diatonic", and set the "Scale" to "C".
Use the + and - keyboard range control to set the keyboard to a small range such as "C, D" or "C, D, E".
Keep practicing, and as you progress youll want to make the range larger.

Tips for the Pros:
Set "Feedback" to "Never" and turn on "Autoplay" to play continuously without ever missing a beat. Crank up the tempo to see how fast you can go!

About the Difficulty Setting:
"Diatonic" uses notes from a major scale. This setting is recommended.
"Random Tonic" uses notes from a random major scale each time.
"Chromatic" mode is the "extreme mode" where any combination of notes is possible. As a result, strange intervals like the Augmented 2nd (ex. F to G#) are possible.
---
About the Score:
Melody Ear Training is all about self progression. Tap the score to reset at any time. The game goes on forever and the music never ends!
