•Play the note on an any instrument. Flashnote Derby will hear and understand what you play. (Works with transposing instruments too!)
•Use a MIDI instrument
•Tap on-screen letter names
•Or play notes on the on-screen piano keyboard

Fully Customizable for Any Student
Tailor each drill to match your student’s level:
•Treble, bass, alto, or tenor clef
•Select specific note ranges or individual notes
•Add sharps, flats, or full key signatures
•Adjust time limits (or remove them entirely in Practice Mode)
•Expand difficulty all the way up to five-and-a-half ledger lines above and below the staff.
As skills grow, you can increase the challenge. Higher difficulty earns higher scores—keeping students motivated.
