Hey all! I'm just curious, is comparing score in pro games doing with all SG users or only with paid (those who has access to all games)? Because in first case it just not relevant information..
There is a lot here that doesn't make sense. For example, I can grind away as a free user and earn my SG Certification the hard way, or I can pay and have my scores multiplied so that the process takes way less time and effort. Enjoy it for what it is, for it certainly isn't what it is not.
Does anyone else think of the notes when you play Feedback Eliminator? Like if something is an octave or a fifth lower/higher than the last question, it can help me figure out the answer. It isn't failproof, because I don't have perfect pitch or anything, but sometimes it works when I can figure out the interval jump from question to question.
I understand your query and some people may anchor to that. The issue is that notes are designed to be heard, whereas frequency reaches a broader spectrum of listening. Frequency is the foundation of detection across all instruments and identifying what is heard. So, by taking your approach, you’re actually limiting yourself. Focus on the frequeny only and you’ll be able to pick up more than you ever anticipated with music.
I'll keep that in mind since I'm okay at recognizing simple intervals like fourths, fifths, and octaves. 1kHz is seared into my brain as the *bleep* when people used to curse on TV.
Now that I'm officially good at this game, am I the only one who thinks the way it's graded is kind of nonsense? Near as I can figure, it scores your accuracy based on what dB level you set the faders at, but that doesn't really anything to do with balance at all. Balance isn't just volume, but volume relationships between elements. So many times I've failed a stage because I would set the loudest instrument to unity and my overall balance would either be too loud or too quiet, even though the actual balance I set could be so close to the example that toggling between them looks like moving a VCA fader. It's so infuriating!
I don't know if you've noticed, but when you're already at a higher level, one game is counted as 3?! So for example, I already have 2100 games on my account, but in reality I've done maybe 800. I've already brought up this topic, but no one replied.
Unless you have been blessed with good enough hearing or have reached the pinnacle of human hearing, don't stress about hearing the exact frequency or dB. Instead, start by giving yourself a range as wide, or wider, as you may need based on what you hear. This approach has helped me understand the frequency range better without the stress and frustration [which can easily deter anyone from moving along] of getting it right every time. It has also helped me develop my hearing. For example, this approach has helped me with EQ Cheetah [yes, I'm still on Level 1 [no shame: cat-like reflexes are another skill and sticky trackpad an impediment]], where I noticed I'm getting more answers right than wrong consistently. It has also helped me with other exercises, such as DB King. But giving yourself a range also sets the foundation at that moment, with long-term and short-term benefits, for working towards that single frequency and dB [achievable for some] with a clear, narrower focus. With practice, patience, and consistency, you'll see improvement over time sooner than you think.
@Mich Lewis-Sorensen Most people I have interacted with on EQ Cheetah, have the same experience with EQ Cheetah. Improving on other exerices, and not so much on EQ Cheetah, is the norm…minus the gifted ones
