Download our app
TurboScaler is also an iPhone app. Open this page on your iPhone and tap the button to go straight to the App Store.
The App Store link appears here as soon as the app is public. The browser version below works now on a computer, with a microphone or a MIDI keyboard (Chrome or Edge).
How it works
- Listen to the demo, with falling notes and the fingering shown on a guide hand.
- Play it yourself on your piano or a MIDI keyboard. Connect a keyboard by USB, or let the app listen through the microphone.
- Play it correctly three times to move on to the next skill. Mistakes do not reset your count.
- Build a streak and collect nuggets of gold for practising regularly.
Piano grades 1 to 8
- Initial Grade and Grades 1 to 8: major and minor scales, arpeggios, dominant and diminished sevenths, chromatic and whole-tone scales, contrary motion, scales in thirds and sixths, and four-octave scales for the higher grades.
- Finish a grade three times and the app offers you the next one, keeping your practice days and reminders.
- Prefer your own plan? Choose the keys and hands yourself.
