Hi Marty, I have a few questions . I have been working on developing my ear now for a few years and sometimes it feels like im not getting any better at it, I now reading tab is cheating, but is it cheating if you have a devise that can slow down music without changing the pitch ? How did you start out developing your ear ? and can you tell me about some of the ET exercises you used to practice, and how long you would work on it each day ? Thanks Marty !! Alex

There is no `ear training`. There are no `ear training` exercises. There is no `cheating`, no tips, no secrets, and not even practice. There is only listening to A LOT of music, learning A LOT of music, and playing music as much as humanly possible in every situation possible. Eventually your ear will develop.
