Very useful in developing my hearing. I always wanted to be able to identify the chord sounds that I hear at times. This has been helping tremendously

Great but I cant work out the progressions...my ear is already better for intervals and chords, as I get really lazy at home so doing this anywhere, whether out for coffee on the bus anywhere is Fantastic. Waiting on a freind its always there for a quick five minutes. A real extra bonus of Warren's amazing app that makes me able ro work skills anywhere ,anytime.
