Basics: Ear Training
ActiveBass has several exercises to improve your ear:
Interactive Exercises
In each exercise, a sound example is given, and you are asked to identify the note or series of notes that are played in the example. The main purpose of these exercises is to teach you about how certain tones sound against the tonic of a key or progression. This type of training will help you to figure out melodies and chord progressions even when you don't have your bass handy.

  One Note Exercise
  Two Note Exercise
Sound Reference
To familiarize yourself with how the sound examples are presented, click any of the buttons below to hear an example featuring that note. All examples are presented relative to the key of C. For this reason, a I-IV-V-I progression always leads off the example.

C# Eb F F# Ab Bb
