A fun and easy-to-use ear training program!

Rising Software Auralia 2 is a teaching program designed to help you improve your ear. Auralia has a simple and friendly interface that makes it easy to use.

(Available for Macintosh only (Mac OS Classic and Mac OS X.)

With 26 topics, Auralia is by far the most comprehensive ear training package! Auralia's drill based teaching is a fun and easy way to use your computer for ear training. Auralia leads you through a variety of graded exercises, and presents instant feedback. All of your results are recorded, and you may sing or play your answers using your microphone or MIDI keyboard. Auralia is suitable for both classical and contemporary musicians of any age and ability!

The main screen of Auralia opens up with four large buttons, each signifying a group of topics or modules. Individual topics are accessed using the slightly smaller buttons underneath.

Each topic has a system of graded levels, getting progressively more difficult. You and your students can move through the levels as required — advanced students can move ahead, and less advanced students can consolidate their learning at their own pace.

Awesome Drills!
Each of Auralia's 26 topics has its own drill screen, allowing you to focus on the subject at hand with no distractions! All of the topics are interactive; some may ask you to tap back a rhythm using your spacebar or MIDI keyboard whilst others may simply require you to select a multiple choice answer. There is also an on-screen keyboard for those who don't have a MIDI keyboard.

Wherever possible, we utilize microphone input, in topics such as Interval Singing. This operates without any special hardware; you simply need to plug a microphone into your soundcard. As well as having countless educational benefits, these 'microphone topics' make using Auralia even more fun!

Each topic also has an information screen where you can learn about the content. These are described in more detail on the following page.

Suitable for all ages
Auralia is suitable for all ages and abilities. Each topic has a system of levels that are progessively graded, allowing beginners and advanced students to realize their full potential in the shortest possible time.

Musicians of all backgrounds can use Auralia. It doesn't matter if you are a classical pianist, jazz drummer or rock guitar player. Auralia's wide variety of topics will allow you and your students to focus on particular area(s) of ear training, whilst obtaining valuable exposure to other non familiar areas of music recognition.

To help you achieve as much as you possibly can, each topic has an accompanying Information screen. These screens explain the content of each topic, and give hints and tips. Where relevant, you may also play examples to further assist your understanding.
