🎧 Built-In Learning Tools

Learn Any Tune Your Way

Slow it down. Loop the tricky bar. Read the notation. Every tune in your book comes with powerful practice tools — built for how traditional musicians actually learn.

Everything You Need

Tools That Fit How You Learn

No feature gating. Every tool works on every tune — free or paid, curated or uploaded.

Variable Speed Playback

Slow any tune to 50% — or speed it up to 150%. Start slow, build up gradually, and your muscle memory does the rest. No pitch distortion.

Loop Sections

Set a loop on any section of the tune. Repeat the B part twenty times. Drill that tricky roll until it's second nature. No rewinding, no fiddling.

Learn By Ear Mode

Pre-set phrase markers break the tune into learnable chunks. Listen to phrase A, play it back, move to phrase B. Like having a teacher beside you.

Multiple Notation Formats

View ABC notation in three ways: Easy ABC (simplified), Standard ABC (Comhaltas format), and staff notation. Choose what works for your reading level.

The Traditional Way

Built for How Trad Musicians Actually Learn

1

Listen first

Hear the whole tune at full speed. Get a feel for the rhythm and shape.

2

Slow it down

Drop to 60% speed. Pick out the notes and ornaments one by one.

3

Break it apart

Use phrase markers to isolate the A part, the B part, or just two bars.

4

Loop and drill

Set a loop and repeat until your fingers know the way. Then speed up.

5

Play along

Bring it back to full speed and play along with the recording.

"The ear is the best teacher. Technology just makes it easier to listen carefully."

— The Tuned.ie philosophy

Learn From the Source

The tools work on any tune you upload — but they're even better on our curated library. Professional recordings from musicians at the heart of the Irish tradition, with pre-set phrase markers and notation prepared by the players themselves.

This isn't MIDI or computer-generated audio. These are real musicians, playing real tunes, in the real tradition.
