How it works
- Listen, then answer. Each answer is marked straight away.
- Get 8 of your last 10 right to move up a grade. 3 wrong in 6 moves you back one.
- A session is 10 questions. Your progress is kept in this browser and, when you are signed in, in your account.
The levels
Grades 1 to 8 follow the graded music exams, from your first notes to Grade 8.
The grade adapts to your answers, or you can pick one.
The first level of each trainer is free. The full version comes with Brainlag Music, Brainlag Ultra and the Advanced courses.

About
Listening and writing together: pick the rhythm you heard, play a short melody back on the keyboard, or name the cadence at the end of a phrase.
