Call and Response Ear Training Software
ReelEar v.3.5: http://www.reelear.com
I really love using this software to practice playing what I am hearing. The software plays a random melody, based on selected notes, and allows you to play back what you hear on your instrument, in tempo.
Playing back what you hear in tempo can speed up your development of relative pitch. Maintaining a tempo in your ear training practice also provides a more realistic musical experience. For example, when you are at a jam session and you hear the soloist play a cool melody, and you want to repeat back the melody you just heard, you have to play what you hear in tempo. This software allows you to practice EXACTLY that. It's also really inexpensive!
What I hope for with this software: I really wish this software improves in the visual design (user interface) and is developed for mobile devices.

This is another ear training software that allows you to practice call and response on your instrument. This software is free of cost, and will test the notes that you are playing back, using your device's microphone. This software is available for the iPhone. Although the note recognition feature using your device's microphone is a cool feature, I feel that you really should just use your ears to tell you if you are playing back the correct melody.
I'd like to know your thoughts on the ReelEar! Have you seen this software before? Have you used it?
