Frequently asked questions
- What is the Note Finder?
- An interactive trainer for naming and locating notes on piano and guitar. It plays the note when you answer so you connect the visual position with the sound.
- How accurate is it?
- Notes use real frequencies generated through the Web Audio API. Pitch is exact in equal temperament tuning.
- Does it use standard tuning?
- Yes - guitar is shown in standard EADGBE tuning with twelve frets. The same pitch class appears in multiple positions, all of which count as correct in Locate mode.
- Any tips for memorising notes?
- Sing or speak the note name as you click, focus on natural notes first, and aim for daily short sessions to lock in muscle memory.
