Note Hitter contains flash cards to teach note recognition and games to test your ability to sight read from a score.

Each challenge contains notes from a particular scale or arpeggio. Use your own instrument to play the right notes as they appear. When you hit the right pitch the note will pop. As you improve the games get faster and more challenging using more notes from scales with more sharps or flats. You will learn a lot and have fun at the same time.

How far can you go?

From a gentle start Note Hitter builds up to 3 octaves at tempos of up to 180 bpm with notes chosen from 6 types of exercise and all tonics. That keeps even the best musicians busy! Once you have earned a feature you can go for the next one or deselect it to concentrate on a particular configuration until you're ready. Note Hitter Lite enables you to play the first level of Note Hitter.

Can you hit every note even in the hardest keys?

Note Hitter supports multiple users and multiple instruments per user. There is also a feature to change the transposition of the written notes (not available in Note Hitter Lite).

Instruments supported include Voice (Note Hitter Voice may be a better choice for vocalists), Piano, Violin, Viola, Cello, Double Bass, Guitar, Bass Guitar, Clarinet, Flute, Oboe, Saxophone, Bassoon, Recorder, Trumpet, Cornet, Trombone and Horn.

This app needs work. First, I would like to select specifically which key signatures I would like to work on not set the maximum #\b that there can be. For example say I wanted to work on D major, I would have to wait till I got to that key, its annoying. Second, I would like to select the specific range which I would like to do, not just a full octave or two full octaves. (also include both clefs for piano, not just bass or just treble). Third, it boggles my mind why a starting note for sight singing is not given, does everyone have perfect pitch but me? Also, you shouldn't fail for missing just one note, there should be a score at the end of the exercise, but in stead when you miss one note you lose. This is very frustrating especially when the app does not pick up lower notes very well. Finally, this app has crashed on me multiple times and I would have to restart my entire device. And it wouldn't hurt to work on the presentation either, everything is just so plain. This is a great idea but need A LOT of improvement.
