Ear training

Hi ya’ll! How do you work on improving your aural skills (such as relative pitch, recognizing chord progressions, and identifying sharps/flats)? I've been using an aural app called ToneScholar (https://tonescholar.com) if you're curious). It's a fantastic tool, although it focuses on voice-based exercises. Just to clarify, I'm not looking for another aural training app. I'm just interested in any advice or exercises you have that are similar to app.

I play pretty much by ear.

Practice, practice, practice...

Put it into your daily life.

Listen to your genre of choice and try and follow a broadcast stream on your board.

Eventually, your fingertips speak music.

Thanks you! On the ToneScholar app, I encountered an article that delves into functional ear training. do you think that this method is as effective as the one you suggested? You can view the article at this link: https://tonescholar.com/blog/functional-ear-training-explained

Musicians were mastering their instruments centuries before anything was written down.

The only way to learn harmonies and intervals is to practice, practice, practice.

Take your board to bed with you at night and wake up playing it.

That's how you learn.
