You do what you have to! Wouldn’t have found this knowledge without the “clickbait” aspect. I have already improved twofold because of patiently listening to the “vowels” my acoustic guitar speaks ❤️ Thank you again!

The way I did it was assigning a song to each note. For example: C with joy to the world, D with the theme from Papers please, and E with Fur Elise. I think this way is probably more effective if you know the song you're assigning by heart.

Marvin Gisset yes! For me I would always be flat or sharp by a note or two when using that method, but everybody should use the method that works best for them! 🕺 All tips and tricks are tools, I may use both! 🤣

Yo bro thank you

You don't need to invest in video editing software download Devenci Resolve it is free and one of the great video editing software.

The F Pitch

That's a solid start. From that you can develop relative pitch and get most of the same benefits of perfect pitch

Lmao that's me but with the tuning A on the violin

@@srhodes6963 Yeah I'm not surprised. He seems cool at times but during his live videos he can say some shitty things to people commenting.

The 7 notes of the major scale: c1, c2, c3, c4, c5, c6 and c7

If it's the first note played

Thats actally the levetin (i think thats how its spelled) effect! Maybe look at the video from twelve tone

Yeah that's tonal memory I can always sing a perfect middle C without a reference But I can't sing or recognize any other note without a reference so that's definitely not perfect pitch

I can sing a D because I always remember it from how Miles solo starts on So What

@@Dprest-nd4yc I do remember the D because of "Sweet Home Alabama". :)

All this examples are relative pitch and tone memory

The 80/20 Drummer do you have any lessons or tips for the way the Taiwanese teach it?

Most teachers in Asia would hit you with a wooden dowel or a violin bow. It’s in your best interest to remember.

@@myongpark bruhhhh that's so true 😂

My children’s piano teacher just recently showed us - well before the COVID - that she has the perfect pitch. I was impressed. She acted, and I totally believed, that it was a secret talent in one in a million. I will practice this, and after the COVID I’ll shock her. By the way, I have it, too.

I went to school in asia, we would have tests where the teacher plays random notes out loud and make us write down which one it was but that was a guessing game. She would just teach us how to read Staffs and the Do Re Mi bullpoop and then plan surprise quizzes. I still love music though I didn't develope perfect pitch.

Omg😂 SAME !

This was my biggest obstacle to me actually learning clarinet as a teenager. I grew up on the violin, which is of course non-transposing. When I tried out clarinet in high school, mostly to learn a wind instrument for the sake of becoming a better orchestrator, I simply could not in any way shut off or recalibrate my perfect pitch, and I basically had to transpose all the sheet music in my head into concert pitch before I could play it.

I played trumpet in high school said c aswell...

I played either tenor saxophone or soprano saxophone for most of my life and also said C.

Same but trumpet

I was thinkin bruno mars

literally both of u. I get both of those so much....

jaurellodragon not shaved

i just got u to 420 likes so ur welcome

Dwayne Mars

Yeah, kids ought to come with a 6-year warranty! If your child doesn't have perfect pitch before his/her 6th birthday, you should be able to take your child back to the hospital delivery room and swap it for a new one.

Surprisingly, the person who made this comment was Asian! Can you imagine and Asian parent wanting their unborn child to be perfect?? Unheard of! 😘

Adrian Cliteur LMAO

Lmao thanks I thought it was pretty cringe but that’s ok

@@Saxologic Actually laughed so hard at 12:20

underrated.

William Tran So true!

Yessss

Yesss fr because I remember the G note, I can actually guess other notes using relative pitch! So whenever I'm trying to figure out what a note is I just kinda recall the G note in my head and compare the other note to it and like 90% of the time it works lol

Can confirm

That's how I remember it! 😅

Dragonaut42 true...

Dang shots fired

Lookin at you, Rick

The truth isn’t always what you want to hear.

But the people who say "you can't develop perfect pitch as an adult" are correct - this seems different from "real" perfect pitch where you just know the notes intuitively like colors. This is a really good pitch memory, not actual perfect pitch. The issue is in the term "perfect pitch" that means a really specific thing that can't be developed as an adult (as far as I know). But pitch memory is something that can be developed (but I would still say some people learn it more intuitively, for example they can always sing the same song in the same key without thinking about it, whereas to me it's always pretty much random - though I do know the sound of the open low E string on guitar when I hear it, but that's because I know the timbre, and I wouldn't be able to sing that note without a reference, but I know it when I hear it). I mean, usually people who want to develop perfect pitch would want to be able to instinctively recognize notes like colors - that's the skill that people would be after (and they probably ask these questions because they have realized that developing relative pitch takes time and hard work, so they want to know if there's some kind of a "life hack" to ear training). And as far as I know, this can't be developed as an adult. And people usually also tell these people to learn relative pitch instead, because it's a much more useful skill (because in music, it's the relations between the notes that matter, not the absolute pitches). Also, if your pitch memory isn't instant, then there is little use for it in a real life situation where you would have to play a melody by ear - you need relative pitch to be able to do that, unless you have actual perfect pitch (and even then, developing relative pitch would probably be pretty useful, because again, what actually matters in music is the relations between the notes, not that much the absolute pitches). But this video actually made a good argument why a good pitch memory (or "true pitch") would also be helpful - the "practicing your instrument mentally" argument was pretty convincing to me, and it's not a thing I have thought about before. And I guess knowing what key a song is in without having to try it on your instrument first would also be somewhat helpful (though with a good relative pitch, you would be able to figure out the key just by playing a single note).

I agree!

batlin I agree 100% I still wonder why my ears love notes in certain sequences so much .. saying it is impossible isn’t as accurate as saying we don’t know how .... yet

@@johncorson6599 The only way it is theoretically possible is if we somehow are able to force our brains to revert to a developmental stage even it only temporarily. Doing so would probably risk brain damage and a bunch of other brain conditions.

mason harris possibly ... but I’m already brain damaged so not worried about it lol

@@masonharris9166 oh shut up no it doesn’t. Wtf.

Any update? I just found this and I'm feeling pretty positive about it, sorta makes sense to me in that you're listening to the entire harmonic spectrum of a note (and assigning a synthetic "vowel"/harmonic EQ sound to it on nothing but the merits of it's own harmonic series, which really helps things click.

How did it go it has almost been a year

It’s been a year how is it going

Still waiting :O

What note is it?

It can be useful.

Justin Time Beethoven had perfect pitch and he was deaf

@@_____c___482 youre giving me depressiom

@@_____c___482 he had perfect pitch before he was deaf

Perfection XJ yes but he still knew how the notes sounded while deaf

Beethoven no approve xD

Theosis78 Wow, I gave a tutorial and I ended up being the one learning. Thanks dude that’s super interesting.

@@Saxologic I have to agree. Considering native perfect pitch is already believed to be strongly linked to linguistic processing (which is mostly just rapidly shifting timbral cues - i.e. vowel sounds!), "true pitch" may simply be a kind of infant form of the same kind of neural processing that leads to perfect pitch development in children. So I don't think true pitch is really that far off from native born absolute pitch.

KIBanshee9 infant form! Cool way to put it. Thanks!

that's a cool theory I had never heard

This list of stages appears on David L. Burge's perfect pitch course. At least it's on the one I acquired some 25 years ago. What I find amusing is that you have re-discovered what was said on that course on your own, making it even more clear that these are trully universal principles.

King Harvick Rick Beato: facepalm, these idiots still don’t understand what perfect pitch is

@@threepe0 Rick's little kid has it and seems also as a bonus to be a frickin' genius, , I think he knows pretty

John Valentine yeah I know. That’s exactly what I was saying. I was saying it from Rick’s perspective 😆

@@threepe0 I feel Rick needs to be more open minded about what some people are able to accomplish. Everyone's brain is different.

Europa it doesn’t matter what Rick is open minded about here, and it’s irrelevant that people’s brains are different. There is a technical definition of perfect pitch. The poster of the video itself admits that this video doesn’t meet the requirements for perfect pitch. The title is click bait. It doesn’t matter what Rick thinks, and it doesn’t matter what you feel about what Rick thinks. Facts are facts.

Same, but with different songs/pieces/Normal Violin tuning. A is tuning, B is Nobody Knows the Troubles I've Seen C is tuning D is Hungarian Dance no. 5 and tuning E is tuning F is In the Jungle G is tuning Bb is Caprice no. 23 C# is raising C a semi tone Eb is the second note of Caprice no. 23 F# is Jingle Bells or La Campanella G# is lowering A a semi tone.

Wow, I notice that when I hear a chord or a note I can relate it to a song, but this is usually only if it is the same instrument. I never thought if using that as a guide for perfect pitch.

Yeah, there are many strategies and paths to finally get perfect pitch, it's just auditive memory. Just like in maths, also there are many strategies to calculate a problem in your mind, without a calculator. When you are so used to the same notes everytime, with time you're not going to need that "template" that you made in your mind anymore. The name of the notes just come up instantly. Everything is practice.

D is megalovania

E is the beginning of just dance by lady gaga

Great idea!

I’m colourblind :( damnit, I’ll try with shades xD

I taped from middle C, and up to the next C! :)

LRZ Zhi you could also try numbers or symbols, if that would be easier

C is green and d is yellow and that's how it should stay

゚BobFredIII then it should still be easy for you to hear a c and an f

Rian That's the best comment I've read! LOL

sike

markthekeyman 45,000!! Holy cow

I think I agree! Oboe would be very good too, probably even better. Clarinet is great, lots of timbre differences. Flute is good. Etc

guitar is fucking shit for it lmao

What about violin? My violin teacher told me she almost had perfect pitch but had difficulty in low pitches. Because violin was her first instrument and it does not have low pitches. She said her sister started with piano and did not have this problem. This makes me wonder if the little kids who developed perfect pitch before 6 actually got it through this real pitch method too. It’s just that they got it so early and passed the stage of playing instrument in their brain very early, and they were kids they did not rationalize how and whys. So it appears they just got it.

before it gets better the darkness gets bigger why is guitar bad? Is piano good?

Saxologic yess oboe

Saxologic ty

Write down what you hear. (The differences in the colorings of each pitch). And especially start to compare notes that are close to each other. So that you can begin to see the subtle differences..

@alterdestiny indeed

Same

That’s interesting! Which numbers do you feel for each note?

This may be a rare kind of synesthesia :) some people see colors when they hear notes. I see colors when I read numbers or individual letters and that's kind of a memory cheat. I can memorize phone numbers within a second

I see dead people

I understand this! Not quite to the extent of a specific number, but I hear/see notes as even or odd, and specific chords as even or odd, etc. I thought I was the only one with this kind of experience!

You have synesthesia man

KIBanshee9 dude whoa .. friggin awesomeness.. woa

Yes. You are absolutely right. I am just a beginner in violin. I ask the silly question like why are many of the best violin pieces in D major. I got the answer that in D major more notes get resonance with open strings so it sounds better. That’s one example of your last point

Thats incredible! I have been trying to find a source on learning perfect pitch for so long. I knew that it wasnt impossible. Nothings impossible. I read your comment with my jaw dropped lol. I am looking forward to learning this. Just wow

lmao, yeah those types of people are the worst

Gray Dowsett hahahah wtf

You were able to meditate and take the time to think out of the educational box.

@@MontoyaMatrix its possible. It was weird when I found out. Just one day at like 13yrs old my piano teacher was like “hold on turn around and guess what notes i play” And after a few rapid succession responses, he was like “oh my god…. You have perfect pitch!!!”

I think I may have perfect pitch as I can find exact notes on my instrument or sing them correctly but it's hard for me to remember what the note is called. If maybe I train it more I can perfect it. And just as you say, it is good to have relative pitch because of those reasons. You brought up some great points that I agree with

That's amazing! I love seeing the connections between mathematics, physics, and music.
