Ear Training doesn't always recognize notes

Open HansHermann123 opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

When I use the ear training, correctly played phrases often don't get recognized, especially when played legato. If I play a really short staccato it often works, but if I play disconnected notes in a normal tempo they are not recognized.

It's required to play notes completely separately, are you sure your fingers aren't slightly depressing keys between notes? In any case, I think the detection can be improved to be less strict about overlapping notes.

Yes I played the notes perfectly separated. I guess the problem could be
that my e-piano constantly sends timecode data (Midi Statuscode F8) which
probably screws up the separated note detection. Unfortunately it can't be
turned off on the e-piano. Don't know if a filter is available that lets
only notes pass through?

Cheers

Thanks for the info. Only note on and off events should be processed. I think it might be worthwhile to add a midi event recording tool so I can have people with bugs capture the events and send them over for me to replay.

Also, just for confirmation, this is with the "melody playback" ear training exercise right?

Exactly

So yeah, the midi timecode stuff shouldn't be the problem because the "Staff" playing works perfectly
