About Hearddle — spotting the off-pitch tone
Hearddle trains odd-one-out pitch detection — picking the single tone that sits slightly off from its neighbours. Catching a note that is a touch sharp or flat is exactly what a choir singer does when one voice strays, or what you do when an instrument slips out of tune partway through a piece.
Ten rounds each play a small group of tones with one off-pitch member. Tap the odd one out. The gap shrinks as you go, so every round asks a little more of your ear.
How small a difference can anyone actually hear? Our guide to the just-noticeable difference explains the limits of pitch resolution and how practice moves them. See all our ear-training guides to dig deeper.
