Earmeister guide
Getting started
Earmeister is a powerful training tool. These steps get you from unboxing to your first session in about five minutes.
1. Charge fully
Connect the USB-C cable and charge until the battery icon is full (about 2 hours the first time). You can train while it charges.
2. Switch on
Press and hold the side button for about two seconds. The Earmeister wheel lights up. Hold again to switch off.
3. Learn the touch controls
Tap a note on the chromatic wheel to answer. Swipe to move between menus. Tap the centre logo to repeat the tone.
4. Start with two notes
Begin with a small set of notes — for example C and F♯. Earmeister adds a new note only once you're confident with the current ones.
Training that works
- Listen for just a few focused seconds each day — consistency matters more than long sessions.
- Don't hum or sing the note before answering — go with your first impression.
- Use headphones or a quiet room for the first weeks.
- Expect progress over weeks and months, not days. Consistency is everything.
- Stuck on a note? Go back to fewer notes for a day. It's normal and it works.
Earmeister Pro — your AI ear-training coach
With Earmeister Pro, the AI coach watches which notes you confuse and how fast you answer, then decides what you practise next. It focuses on your weak spots, adjusts the pace, and suggests when to add a new note — so every minute of practice counts. Pro is included in the Pro and Lifetime Pro packages.
