LATEST UPDATES
Develop stronger, more confident Irish fiddle playing with an interactive first-position fingerboard designed to connect note recognition, fingering, listening and practical playing.
Select any pitch to hear authentic fiddle audio, study finger positions, practise scales and modes, analyse multiple stops and use the microphone-based intonation trainer to improve pitch accuracy in real time.
Paste an ABC melody into the built-in tune player and follow each note as it lights up on the fingerboard. Adjust the tempo, loop the tune and use the app as a visual guide while learning or teaching.
Once you have created a useful exercise, save it as an image for practice, teaching or lesson preparation.
Slow it down! Get it right. Speed it up. Make it yours!
Device Compatibility
This fiddle fingerboard tool runs entirely in your web browser and has been designed to work across modern desktop and mobile devices.
Recommended Experience
For the smoothest experience I recommend using:
Safari, iPhone & iPad Users
The app also works on iPhone and iPad, however all browsers on iOS (including Safari, Chrome and Firefox) use Apple's WebKit browser engine. This means that web-based audio applications can occasionally behave differently from desktop browsers. Depending on your device, iOS version and browser settings, you may experience occasional interruptions or restrictions to audio playback. These behaviours are controlled by Apple's handling of browser audio rather than by the web app itself. These limitations are built into Apple's browser technology, therefore identical behaviour across every iPhone and iPad cannot always be guaranteed.
