eMedia Music Theory Tutor Complete takes you all the way from learning the basics of music theory to a deeper understanding that will help you to compose better, improvise easier, and learn music by ear more effectively. Over 430 engaging lessons teach the crucial musical elements of rhythm, melody, and harmony. Learning is easier and more effective with images, audio, interactivity, and numerous examples.

Many lessons let you enter pitches simply by humming, singing, or playing your instrument into the computer’s microphone. The software listens as you tap in rhythms, sing back pitches to guess intervals, and interact with the lessons. Music Theory Tutor Complete will show you when you match pitches correctly in a lesson, and shows a chart of your progress as you move through the course. Gain confidence as you pass quizzes at the end of each subject and ace tests at the end of every grade level completion.

In eMedia Music Theory Tutor Complete, you’ll learn all about the building blocks of music. The structured course and practice exercises help you hear musical keys, scales, intervals, chords, and rhythms “in your head” to help you compose without an instrument, improvise solos, and learn songs by ear faster.

LEARN HOW MUSIC WORKS –
Learn how rhythms, scales, chords, and chord progressions are created. Understand how tempos are described and notes are subdivided and grouped into measures. Learn the function of melody and harmony and how to use harmonic and rhythmic cadence. Understand all of the fundamentals that every composer, songwriter, and instrumentalist should know.

TRAIN YOUR EARS – SEE THE MUSIC AND HEAR IT “INSIDE YOUR HEAD” –
Sight-sing music as you read it and hear it “in your head” by recognizing rhythms, intervals, and chord relationships. Start composing away from your instrument and sight-read faster!

TAP, HUM, SING and PLAY –
Answer questions the natural way. Tap out the answer to a rhythm question; hum two notes to identify an interval, sing the notes in a melody, or play them on your instrument. Learning music shouldn’t be about typing!

GET HELP AS YOU GO AND SEE YOUR PROGRESS –
Take tests and view statistics to track your progress and watch yourself improve. The Intelligent Practice feature tracks your responses in lessons and automatically selects questions to improve weak spots as an instructor would.
