What is pitchd?

pitchd is a browser ear-training site built around short music challenges that test how well you can remember pitch and feel tempo. It is not just a passive listening tool: you hear something, recreate or match it, and get feedback from the game.

The main appeal is that it makes ear training feel compact and playable. One mode asks you to recreate 4-note sequences on a piano, while another mode, BPM Guesser, asks you to match a mystery tempo after hearing a metronome.

What Can You Find on pitchd?

pitchd includes two main listening games: a pitch memory game and a BPM guessing game. The pitch game focuses on recreating short note sequences, while BPM Guesser focuses on estimating tempo.

The site also presents daily challenge and endless practice modes. Daily Challenge offers a new sequence each day, while Endless Practice is designed for unlimited ear-training rounds.

Example:

Hear: 4-note sequence -> Recreate on piano -> Score based on musical closeness

How To Use pitchd?

  1. Open pitchd and choose a game mode, such as the pitch memory game or BPM Guesser.
  2. Listen carefully to the note sequence or metronome tempo.
  3. Recreate the notes on the on-screen piano, or adjust the BPM slider for the tempo game.
  4. Check the result and notice whether your answer was close, exact, or off.
  5. Replay in practice mode or return for the daily challenge.

Best Ways to Explore pitchd

Start with the pitch memory game if you want melodic ear training. Try to remember the shape of the notes first: up, down, repeat, or jump.

Use BPM Guesser when you want rhythm and tempo awareness. Count internally after the metronome stops, then adjust the slider based on the pulse you held in your head.

Do not treat every miss as a failure. Since the pitch scoring rewards musically close answers, near-matches can still teach you how your ear is organizing pitch relationships.
