No, we didn’t! The Guess Method has been used for over 40 years. There were exercises on cassettes, CD’s or it was done manually by teachers. We know it works and it has proven its efficiency over the years with thousands of successful engineers.

The new Correct Method comes from a suggestion Bob Katz (the mastering guru) made to us:
I suggest presenting a piece of recorded music which needs 'help' in some frequency range and see if the student can not only identify the problem, but also correct for it in a musically satisfying way.
So that is what we did: correct instead of guess. We tested it and we loved it. It turned out to be both funny and instructive. Both methods complement each other really well.
Besides, we have designed the software to turn these methods into a limitless tool, way better than any cassette or CD, because you can feed it with any music or sound and configure the exercises to a level of diversity and detail which wasn’t imaginable before.
We can’t place more emphasis on this way of training the ear: IT WORKS!
DontCrack is always looking for products that let you improve the way your music sounds.
Usually it is a new plug-in tool or a fabulous new virtual instrument to inspire your creativity. But ultimately all these new tools won’t sound their very best if your not using your ears as well as you can to let them shine through.
TrainYourEars is an ear training tutorial software designed to help you understand equalizers and frequencies like never before and until the 16th of January you can get it for ONLY $49 ($89 List).
Up until now only the ‘Golden Ears’ Engineers after years of practise or training could identify frequencies and then either cut or boost frequencies to have all the elements in a mix be heard as clearly as possible.
TrainYourEars speeds up your learning process exposing you to hundreds of random equalizations you have to guess. In no time you will develop a frequency memory which will allow you to connect the sound you imagine in your head with the parameters you need to dial, quickly and easily than ever.
Here is what people are saying about using TrainYourEars:
“As someone with lot of experience, I was surprised by how much it refined my ability to detect frequencies.” JOEL KROZER Mastering Engineer, Denmark 6 Bit Deep Sudios.
“I love the software! I would never be without it again. It helps me be more unbaised, confident and precise.” ANDREA ZANINI Producer, Composer & Mastering Engineer.
“I bought this a couple of days back and I’m already hitting about 94% accuracy. I was WAY off initially. I look forward to identify multiple 1/3 octaves!”
