Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
Pure tone: 34
Piano tone: 36 I missed a couple in the first test because I couldn't actually make out the tones properly on my speakers. But yeah, I knew I possessed absolute pitch: frankly I'm not sure I would have taken up music as a major or enjoyed music in general as much if my sense of pitch was poor, so I feel thoroughly blessed to have it.

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
Leonid, Samurai, 0 and Wyde have absolute pitch.
Yikes. Are there any other abilities other than absolute pitch? I'd like to see what I have that people don't. /jealous |

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
I'm a music major, and like many of my classmates, I only have relative pitch.

Basically the same for me. I do have a few classmates with perfect pitch, but I'm not too jealous because I happen to have much better musicality than them.

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
I think the concept of absolute pitch is a little silly. I think knowing relative pitch is good enough. Having absolute pitch is like being able to tell what the absolute temperature is as opposed to most people who can only identify things that are "hotter" or "colder."

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
Absolute pitch and relative pitch both have pros and cons.. It's best to have both of them.

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
The difference: that was a relative color test. Try imagine if you had to look at one color at a time and type in the RGB value for each.

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
Yeah, this test is extremely contingent on whether you've read music for a long time or not and a 36/36 doesn't mean you have perfect pitch. Eventually, you'd just have a sense for each note and could develop it enough to get 36/36 on this even without having perfect pitch. By way of comparison, a regular person and a person with eidetic memory could take a 100-question test for their history class and score 100/100 each; you would have to introduce factors that isolate the innateness.

Re: how well do you recognize pitches?
This test seems biased because the first note I hear I think of as being Do, which then makes everything relative to the first pitch I heard, and not me trying to think of what the actual pitch is.

4.75 pure tone 7.25 piano tone Piano tones seemed easier overall, no surprise I got a couple better ones for the piano than the pure tones. Makes sense to me too, that it'd be easier, with all the undertones and overtones that any non-pure tone has, because keys (overall key, not individual notes) which are rarely used would be easier to pick out than individual pitches, (which would get used more often than other ones.) Some tones just seemed jarring, but that's probably, again, me assigning a key to the random notes based on their ordering, and it was obvious when the next note played wouldn't even be a part of that key's scale.
