I got to learn solfeggio
I have a book on this ...I got to learn some till july.
Tried several times before but ....I stoped every time at some interval .I thought it was hard cause I didnt have a guitar with me so it was hard to know for me if I was correct or not.
I'm looking for tips.Should I also practice dictation in the same time?(I have ear master pro for that)
Also ...does somebody know a computer program for solfeggio ,like plugin your mic sing the thing and see if u are right?Or a good solfeggio colection on the net( i have two books ..but would like smth on computer ,so that I could play it and see if was right)
one more question : should is sing it with la la la,or do re mi ?

Just having fun. I never tried it so I couldn't really give an honest opinion, but when unsure a beer is always a safe alternative <throws hands up and walks to the fridge>

Ok,..maybe good practice to become a genius in guitartuning? I heared they learn such things in music-universities.. It could be helpfull. But nothing for me.. too less time..

I don't know all the details, but I wouldn't spend too much time on it. But, yea, ear training using singing? I do it all the time, especially at work and away from my guitar. I usually try to hum the melody I'm working on, and more recently (due to suggestions made hear) I try to visualize the notation as I'm humming. Very trick to do this and walk down a flight of stairs at the same time!

I want some opinions on this.To tell the truth ,I already think that my playing is more ...i dont know ...."aware" cause of the solfeggio practice.I've heard that solfeggio is invaluable for ear training.
