S'alright, I was only joking.
And not necesarily - I've never been able to follow conversation in a noisy pub, and as a student I was once fired as a barman because I kept having to ask the customers to repeat their orders. They all thought I was being a twat so eventually the boss got fed up and I got hoofed. Thing is, I was just trying to make sure I did my job properly by getting the right drinks, but if I'd known they thought I was a twat, I would actually have BEEN a twat - because most of the customers were, and they deserved some back!
I really can't sing a note in tune. I sound like a distressed goose or something.
Presumably this means that while my ability to detect pitch is OK-ish, my ability to reproduce it vocally is what's really wrong.
The other:
"At 500 Hz you can reliably hear pitch differences of 1.90625 Hz, which means you did better than approximately 84.7% of people who took our test!" ........15th of a semitone at age 40 = close enough for Jazz.
Test must be broke...
"At 500 Hz you can reliably hear pitch differences of 4.1875 Hz, which means you did better than approximately 59.8% of people who took our test!"
Right, off to transcribe every Frank Zappa album...
Or sit here and write this whilst I wait for Eric Jr to have a go. He has much, much better hearing than I do so I'm interested if that translates into good pitch.
Right, he got 100%. Also said he suffered delays in the sound coming out on a few buttons ( on android tablet) but found it very easy compared to the pitch tests he did for grade 3 clarinet.
can we have a test for detecting whether a guitar playing chords and hamonies is out of tune a bit?
