![]() Oh my god I could never tell what the hell I was hearing. But when I had to do dictations for my music classes? Like, the professor would tell us the key and time signature and then play a tune that was several measures long and we had to correctly write down what we heard on staff paper. I actually did A capella when I was in high school, and when I'm singing I have no difficult staying in tune and can harmonize with something on the spot with little difficulty (not tryna flex lol). something that was written down/said over text (which idk how normal that is by itself, but damn it definitely impacts my life daily to a greater degree than the people around me), I need to look up lyrics for songs more often than not, etc.īut for music I have a decently good ear. For me it's weird, like, I don't have severe auditory processing issues, but I often have to ask people to repeat themselves, subtitles are a requirement when watching TV, I have a much more difficult time remembering things that someone told me verbally vs. Oh my god, I'm a music major and this is relatable as heck. But it took a lot more time and effort than it should have considering I had been a musician.īut my ears are fine. I did get better at it and that is easy for me and usually I can pick out chord qualities by listening, at least in simple songs. Eventually I could, but considering I already had known how to play an instrument for over 10 years at that point that was not something that should have been hard for me. I could hear if a pitch was higher or lower if there was a visual representation of it like sheet music or a fretboard, but I couldn’t hear if a pitch was higher or lower just by listening. ![]() ![]() This is the crazy part - as the basic first stages of the app, it would give you a pitch and and a second pitch and you had to indicate that the second pitch was higher or lower. But I have an especially weird one - I can read sheet music and have always understood how to find a higher or lower pitch on a visual instrument like a guitar or keyboard.īut when I decided to really try to get better at guitar and couldn’t listen do simple things like figuring out a strum pattern by listening to it I figured I must be missing some fundamental skills. Yeah I have to look up lyrics to songs so I can hear them when the song is playing, sometimes I have a hard time listening when people talk to me. ![]()
