Its not a perfect prime because there is one semitone between the two notes.

A to A is a perfect prime.
A sharp to A sharp is a perfect prime.
A to A sharp is an augmented prime.

Hello everyone!

We are working to translate the app in other languages, one of them being spanish. At the moment we are looking for anyone who natively speaks spanish to test and inform us about any bugs or improvements in the translation.

If you would like to participate please send us an email and we will invite you to the testing program which will allow you to install a development version of the app.

Have a great day!

It is probably not a glitch or bug. But rather has to do with the fact that there are multiple intervals inside the chord. The question is about the third heard from the root note of the chord, as in "the third of the chord"

For instance:
If you hear a C major triad, the notes C - E - G.
Then C to E is a major third (and the correct answer to this question)
But E to G is definitely a minor third, just as C to G is a perfect fifth.

So either you are not hearing the interval correctly because you're not hearing it from the root of the chord. And/or you are confused about the question itself, which asks about the third in the chord (which refers to the third from the root note).

Hope it helps! Ask away if you need more info.

The major third of G sharp is B sharp, not C.

If the app says it’s a major third, it is.. did you try recognizing the interval by using a songlist? Look for the list in the wiki about a major third and/or look on google for a list.

Are you on iOS? if so, make sure the Do not disturb hardware switch is turned off.

Left of the 2 black keys is the C, remember that and you know all the notes.

First of all, well done to have come this far in Sonid!

Answering chord progression questions by ear can be very challenging at first.

To play progressions by ear first try to determine the key, ie major or minor, and where the progression ends so that you have a reference to the tonic. Knowing the key will make sure you use the right degrees in it. (for instance knowing G major key has G Am Bm C D Em F#mb5 and hearing an E in the bass would assume the chord is Em)

After that listen to the bass notes of the the progressions. When you've found those you can combine your theoretical knowledge about the key and your hearing into the right chord progression.

When advancing further with hearing progressions alternative chords might be used and you will need to be better at hearing which chord is on the bass note. For instance, the third degree in C major might be replaced by E7 (instead of the Em which is normally on the third degree of C major). Although in Sonid this is very limited for now, more lessons about progressions will come later.

It does not say you heard a major second. Then the M should be a capital letter. m2 is a minor second.
