Quiztones: EQ Ear Training Positive Reviews

Great app for the priceThis had helped me a LOT. Not only can I determine frequency and gain changes much more easily after using it, I'm able to hear many suble differences in sound qualities that I couldn't before. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because it would probably cut the time it takes to train your ears if it had an option to let the exercise keep playing until you tell it to go on to the next one. That way, you could hear the difference after you've already guessed it. That would really help to learn the differences more easily. The way it is now, it stops playing as soon as you guys correctly, so you don't get a chance to memorize how a particular change sounds. That's a pretty big oversight IMO..XaosVersion: 2.0.0

Great appI would have given it five stars, if there have been an autoplay next option. This would give you the opportunity to take your eyes off the screen, so that you make your first guess from what you hear, not from what you see as available choices..RahipkilVersion: 2.0.0

Great appI like this app a lot so far. It is not too expensive & it helps with what it is supposed to. I do think that adding more features such as gamifying the experience & being able to keep track of your progress would add a lot of value to the app. Also it would be nice if there was some type of training or description for each frequency that would help me & others identity the different characteristics of different frequencies to know exactly what to listen for.DJAlarcoVersion: 3.4.0

NO CHANGE IN EQI don’t know what it is but I seriously could not hear the 10db boost in any of the quizzes. And I’m not crazy because I took the same piece of music and went to logic and boosted the same frequency up by 10 dB and it was an OBVIOUS boost but in the app the EQ boost was not there. If this is a bug then please fix it soon because I’m wasting my money. Edit: I didn’t realize you had to toggle the on and off switch. You know if you could put that in as a message before the quiz started that would be great..TonyNiOfficialVersion: 1.9.3

Excellent for Audio Students!I’m currently in school taking recording classes and we are supposed to be using the Golden Ears training program to study frequencies etc. That program is way too expensive for me and I can’t book studio time just to practice this. This app has been invaluable for identifying frequencies and pink noise/music EQ cut and boosts. Super happy with my purchase!.TorkDorkVersion: 1.9.0

Fantastic training app!I've owned this app for a few years now. Always loved it. It has helped immensely with my frequency range identification for both instruments in mixing, as well as finding feedback frequencies while mixing for live sound. Phenomenal app, highly recommend it. I own the iOS and desktop version. Totally worth it..MrWrencheyVersion: 1.9.0

This is fantasticI’m a bit of a workaholic, and blind, audio engineer. This is like the holy grail of an iOS game for me. It’s simultaneously fun and productive. I can play on the go to have better ideas of what I’m hearing on my phone for later correction in Pro Tools, or plug into one of my monitor sets at home to test my instinct... and it’s a game, with categories and scores. Much respect ✌️.JustmikeafVersion: 2.0.0

Quiztones will help your mixes!I love the fact that I can stream this app to my car stereo and study various eq choices to improve my mixes. I make final decisions in the car for my mixes. This app helps me better understand what those decisions will sound like. Definitely worth it!.ThetoyboxstudioVersion: 1.9.0

Universal Purchase option would make it 5 starsIf there was an option to have an upgrade path to both the OS X and iOS version, this app would be 5 stars and more. Also a tone generator would be awesome, especially if there were multiple waveforms..MojitoMan14Version: 1.9.3

I love itI am definitely making progress, but I wish it kept track of my scores so I could see my improvement over time. I feel like that would be really motivating. Is that really difficult to implement?.PlanetarysunVersion: 2.0.0

I LOVE THIS APPHas taken my ability to hear frequencies to heights I never imagined was possible at this point in my career. This app is a game changer. Be consistent with it and it will change the way you hear music..JayAllDay!Version: 3.0.0

Great app...butWhy won’t the app work in landscape on iPad? And the layout of quizzes seems counterproductive. Start with easy on top and work down to more difficult? A few other things make it seem very unpolished for such an established app..JapanmoranVersion: 1.9.4

Would give a 3.5At first I didn't like this app, but then I dove into all the training games and changed my rating. The sine wave frequency training isn't the best, but what I found very useful is the eq section: three different levels for various instruments and a section for your own music! There's free stuff online out there, so the $7.99 is a bit much..Jrbrady44Version: 1.9.0

I wish there was a BIT more customizationI love this app - it’s simple and straightforward. I’d suggest being able to select certain FQs to practice instead of them all..ThemasterfiddlrVersion: 2.0.0

So helpful!This app is super easy to navigate and understand and so helpful with ear training. Definitely worth it for the inexpensive annual membership!.JoeyschmoeyyyVersion: 3.3.1

Great training app when away the studio!I use this everyday in the morning, and it's improving both my speed and accuracy in my studio. Great stuff!.EdgeofclarityVersion: 1.9.0

Good app for ear training for audio engineeringI wish this app had a way to track progress. I would have given it 5-stars if it had a way to track progress..Nickname84737Version: 1.9.0

Essential for any audio studentSimple to use, great for practicing quickly and frequently, on the go, etc..JsmithsebastoVersion: 2.0.0

AMAZINGMy audio engineer professor recommended this app to help us understand frequencies better. It’s helped so much!!!!!.Israel.1029Version: 3.3.1

Awesome ToolThis has helped me be able to identify frequencies much quicker which saves me time and money!.JP DrumsVersion: 1.9.0

Trained me up well!This app helped me become MUCH faster with EQ, and helped me know with greater precision what I'm hearing all around ..MarkBvllockVersion: 1.9.0

Much love for this app!Think this is one of the coolest apps ever made. Wish I had it growing up..AudiodudeADVersion: 2.0.0

AwesomeThis is really helpful tool. I would suggest adding lessons on Panning, Compression Ratio, Release, Attack, and Mid/Side if that’s a possible lesson. That would really help..PicfhVersion: 2.0.0

It's not badI am currently enrolled in MTSU's Audio Production program and this app is recommended as a tool to help outside of a class called "Critical Listening". The app is pretty similar to the training we do in class with the Golden Ears disc set. I love the option to choose a song from your phone's library to use. It's very important to have a collection of songs you know really well to use as a solid reference. If you pick a song that you really enjoy and just know how it sounds, it makes it easier for you to pinpoint where the problem is when the boost/cut is turned on (too bright, muddy bass, telephone effect, midrange honk, etc.) I think it would be nice to have a review option maybe after each question or after you complete the set of 10. Maybe the boost/cut is at 2K but you choose 1K, if you could revisit the question and had the option to compare the 2K boost to the 1K boost it would help you distinguish between them. Also I read another review that suggested a kind of tutorial/introduction for the newcomers. I think this would also be a good addition seeing as how it would help someone who is just starting out develop the associations of the change characteristics to the name of the frequency band. (Brightness = 8K/16K, Telephone effect = 1K/2K, etc.) All-in-all it's not bad, especially alongside any similar ear training courses or lessons..Jerbear_93Version: 1.8.3

Amazing training for FOH engineersLove the app. It is great for Audio Engineers to learn and fine tune his/her craft..Bracken DJSVersion: 2.0.0

Great tool for EngineersEar training at its best..AppleFlexerVersion: 2.0.0

$8 = Real PriceGreat app for learning to differentiate between various pitches. The basic version is a good start, but most people would want the "pro" add-on for the extra $$. With that, I like that they give you an example track of a female vocalist, bass guitar, acoustic guitar, etc. and you are expected to tell what frequencies have been adjusted with those tracks. It's easy to get tired of hearing the same example track over and over, but I guess you could load some samples into itunes and use those for identifying various frequencies (instead of just using songs by your favorite artists). The grading system is very simple to understand and the layout looks great and is easy to use. Very happy customer here - Thanks (also, works great on iOs 8.3 - iPhone 6)..MusicinstructorVersion: 1.8.3

ExcellentAs others have stated, it would be nice to use a whole song from your music library instead of short clips that loop. One feature I would like to see is the ability to hear what one's wrong answer would sound like. For instance, if your doing the easy tone quizzes and it plays a 1kHz sine and one selects 2k as the answer, The button should shake or light up red and then play a 2k sine. This sort of feedback to a wrong answer would help me to better distinguish problem areas frequency wise. Another great feature would be the ability to take quizzes on individual instruments in the context of a multiple instrument mix. Also, add compression quizzes! Thanks keep up the fine appin.DanwedgeVersion: 1.7.3

Awesome tool for ear training...I love this app. It's almost perfect. The only thing that it lacks is the option to be tested on specific frequencies. For example you can't limit the quizzes to say, 1k-4k. So for a beginner, it's difficult to dial in on the differences in close octaves and can be frustrating at times to keep missing something because you can't limit your practice to specific octaves only. Other than that, this app is incredible. 5 stars if they add the option to limit quizzes to specific ranges..BeardRetroVersion: 1.7.2

Great start with lots of potentialEDIT: Raised to 4 stars after recent fix. Great app, excellent for frequency ear training. Only one feature request: The choose your own music feature plays the same section over and over for the whole test. It would be great to see it choose different sections, at least as an option, otherwise it's a bit tiring. For the price, I would expect to see a little more depth. Overall, good stuff!.TylerjpinesVersion: 1.8.1

Absolutely Wonderful ToolThe Quiztones app is far and away the best app I've purchased. It's an incredible tool for all audio engineers and musicians. The app is a wonderful way to turn that wait at the doctors office, layover at the airport, bus ride home, etc. into a chance to sharpen your ear. My mixing has improved by leaps and bounds after just a few weeks with Quiztones. The iPod feature in version 1.5 is an excellent addition. Buy this app! You won't regret it..Austinmcallister15Version: 1.5.0

Great!Wonderful app and very easy to use. I would like to see an added ability to change songs with the same difficulty while listening to music with boosted/attenuated frequencies. Right now, it seems if you're listening to song "A" on easy, you can't just choose song "B" while remaining on easy. Maybe a link after the quiz to change songs in addition to play again..Kanstul1600Version: 1.7.1

Not a waste of timeSuper useful for any sound engineer. Actually a reason to pick up my phone. Devs: 1 bug so far. The "random" aspect of the answers in the eq quiz isn't so random. It's only the highest or lowest option when it's 63hz or 16k, otherwise it's always one of the middle 2 (out of the 4 choices). This is in easy and advanced mode. Takes a bit of the fun out of it. Small niggle, thank you for an app worthy of phone time..Thermos79Version: 1.7.1

EXACTLY what I've been looking forBeing a computer based music producer, I have had a hard time getting the hang of equalizing my tracks in order to make them fit in the mix. However, since I've started using this app, I can already recognize which frequencies are missing or overused within my mixes. So I truly thank you for creating this app!.SirEskimoVersion: 1.0.1

Finally an app worth havingThis app is great! I can't get enough and I want more! Please keep providing updates with greater difficulty, and make sure the quiz tones/tracks play in random order. Can u include a section where u just listen to different frequencies? And what happened to the practice section? Please bring that back in the next update! Thanks!!.DtfreakVersion: 1.7.1

Must have!I honestly have no idea where these negative comments are coming from. If all you are using it for is to identify tones then you are missing the point of the app. This has done wonders for my mixing skills. Immediately Finding problematic frequencies in sources is now a no brainer. I've told everyone I know to use this bad boy. It's done great things for me..Andrew colquhounVersion: 1.7.3

I like it.This will definitely be a big help, and here I thought I was a pro.RIPCORD007Version: 1.7.2

OverpricedIt is okay in basic function. The eq testing could do with a broader range of difficulties. The feature I think that is missing for the price is any kind of historical score tracking. Which tests have I done and how well am I improving over time?.Renod RenodVersion: 2.0.0

Ios 6 bug plz fixThis is my favourite app of all time. In ios 6 you can't hear the sound. Kind of important in this app to be able to listen. I hope it is fixed soon. This is the greatest recording engineer ear training piece of software ever made. I love you please fix the bug quick.

Quiztones: EQ Ear Training Negative Reviews

Redundant and GreedySo phones dont have some of these tested hz ranges. So it will be impossible to decipher some, Im a mixing/mastering engineer and see a bunch of potential with this app but the pay wall is egregious and I found myself questioning if the quizzes were even accurate. My advice to learn this stuff is just do, I got excited when I saw this app but in the end it was snake oil. I do hope the developer refines this and reconsiders the pay wall. Maybe put everything the user NEEDS and then add goodies on top of it..Conrad_MayfieldVersion: 3.4.0

Good app, subscription is greedyIt’s a great tool but charging $15 monthly is a bit ridiculous. Would happily pay $20 once for everything or a few dollars here and there for certain quizzes or functionalities. Currently the pricing model is all or nothing in regards to features. I would even tolerate ads, just not $15 a month..Common sense reallyVersion: 3.3.1

Not fully accessible for the blindIt’s a good concept, but it is not fully accessible for blind users. It does not describe what the buttons are, it does not let you choose an answer, it does not let you choose a song from your library, it doesn’t even read you what the question is. It’s kind of confusing to navigate as well. Please make it accessible, if not give me my money back! And I’ll go ahead and let other blind users not to purchase this app. I would definitely change my review if it gets updated and becomes accessible..Mr_poopyHead _281Version: 1.9.3

Couldn’t use Apple Music libraryTried this and nearly all of the songs in my library couldn’t be used because they’re DRM-protected. Also started in the middle of the song and looped like 10 seconds. I can’t do anything with 10 seconds of banjo!.BGFirefighterVersion: 2.0.0

Waste of moneyVery limited features and quizzes....EdrsetyhjVersion: 1.9.0

Not a $5 App...yetThis is a cool concept, and hopefully just a starting point, for what could be a great learning tool. The app is split into 3 quiz sections: tones, EQ, and gain. It's straight forward, and you get a score at the end of each quiz. The only suggestion I have about improving the tone section would be the addition of progress tracking; as the scores don't show a comparison to your prior performance. The other two types of quizzes (EQ and gain) are a little more complicated to work with. The concept is interesting, but it still needs a little work. You can play a song from your library, or choose from stock instrument recording (guitar, drums, bass) and the app will boost certain frequencies, or the gain by a certain amount. Your supposed to identify which frequency is being boosted, or how much gain is added, but there is no "clean"comparison track to reference. This makes it feel less like a controlled experiment and more like a guessing game. I'm sure some individuals with well trained ears could easily point out what mine can't, but then they would have no use for this app. If this is meant to guide untrained ears; a reference track is essential. To add to this feeling of playing the quizzes blind, the app has very limited and vague instructions, no tutorial, FAQ, or contact info. As for support; I found no way to get in touch with them on their website while navigating it on my phone. I could have checked out their full version on my laptop, but figured since this was an iOS app, I should stick to my phone. I hope the updates improve upon this, otherwise this is definitely not a $5 app yet..BChapaVersion: 1.9.0

Only two options for Tone testing?The main reason I picked this up is to better my skills on hearing frequencies. Judging by the name and the good reviews, I thought this app would be perfect for me. But this app has been a massive letdown. There are only two difficulties and they are extreme opposites of each other: Easy, which is almost embarrassingly simple. And Expert, which is across a tiny 1/3 octave range (wayyyy too difficult for now). There must be a way to have some difficulties between these, no? I've peaked through the EQ and Gain sections and they are much more thorough and cover almost anything you'd ever want. I just don't understand how an app called "Quiztones" could put so little effort into the Tones section and be okay with charging $6 (on sale) for..110101001Version: 1.9.0
