Hi everyone

I had a question about HarmoniQ. Right now my main limitation is that I cant select specific notes to practice while also having timbre variety my current workaround is using my ear training app for focused note selection and then a separate online piano page to replay the note in a different timbre for timbre training. It works but its clunky.

Is there a way in HarmoniQ to select which specific notes you want to practice across multiple timbres? That combination would be exactly what I need right now lol Iets say someone wants to keep focusing on white keys plus F# only while training timbre independence at the same time.

If that feature doesnt exist yet it would be a game changer to add it

The past week 2 things happened spontaneously,

First, while i was watching a YouTube video, there was a moment during the video where they put a small notification noise to tell us to subscribe and the moment that notification played. I was like oh that’s a C. Sure enough it was a C

Second when i was plugging my phone to my pc to charge it the small noise it made i instantly went “A” and i was for a moment weirdly surprised how it happened, so i went to check and it was indeed a dead on A 440 Hz

Like instructed i will keep logs of every time it happens in Claude.

Just wanted to share some things that actually made me feel goos about this whole journey.

Hey everyone 25 year old from Ottawa here been training AP for about 2 months and wanted to introduce myself and get some feedback

Parents put me into piano when i was little but that’s about it.

My setup an app where I pick the notes and octave is randomized across 3 octaves I train white keys only right now all day casually whenever I have my phone sitting at 90-95% accuracy over hundreds of daily attempts (i sometimes even put white noise in the background during attempts)

What's working I accidentally discovered that deep emotional connection to a piece locks notes in fast I watched Amadeus obsessively and the final scene opens on an A now A is completely instant for me been trying to replicate that for other notes F and G are still my weak spots

Big milestone recently started identifying pitches in everyday life spontaneously phone was ringing called it as A checked on a pitch detector it was A oven timer called it as B it was B no training on those timbres at all

Still very timbre dependent though testing myself with my girlfriend playing notes over the phone with different timbre and I struggle a bit more

Questions

- is the all day casual rep approach solid or am I missing something

- anyone else use emotional anchors to internalize notes

- best ways to break timbre dependence

- for adults who developed AP when did real world identification start for you

- should i keep my current set of only white keys or straight to all notes

Looking forward to hearing from people further along this path
