Hi everyone, I'm actively training my ear right now: transcribing songs by ear, plus using Functional Ear Training and Sonofield. The problem is I don't have access to a guitar at the moment. Can I temporarily replace transcribing on guitar with a piano app (virtual keyboard)? Will it still be useful for ear training, or should I just wait until I get my guitar back? I'm specifically interested in melody training.

Text: I've been trying to use Sonofield for a few days now, and I can't even get past the very first level properly. At the same time, I consistently score 90–95% on Functional Ear Trainer, and I can easily pick out simple songs by ear on my instrument.
What am I missing? Am I approaching Sonofield the wrong way, or does it train something completely different from FET? Anyone else had this experience?

I've been struggling with Sonofield for several days now. I can't even get past the first level properly. Meanwhile, on Functional Ear Trainer, I consistently score 90–95% correct. I can also easily figure out simple songs by ear on my instrument.
What could be the problem? Am I doing something wrong, or does Sonofield use a fundamentally different approach? Has anyone else experienced something similar?
