      It's actually interesting. I think that "mistuning perception" had little to do with the perfect pitch. I have, if you can say so, the opposite of the perfect pitch and I'm not a musician, so I did awfully in melodic discrimination - only 80. But I scored higher than them in beat alignment (109) and better than Eddy in mistuning perception (110). I think the fact that I listen to opera a lot helped me immensely. Instrumentalists don't always seem to "feel" the vocal music.

    I just have to say. I love watching these videos despite the fact I don't know anything about music. Literally nothing. I'm a screenwriter and I watch these videos to procrastinate... with no regrets. Every time I hear you guys say, "Practice" I'm sitting in my bed eating Pop Tarts thinking, "Damn you right though." I love how hard work and devotion can influence people across the arts. To put this whole comment shortly, y'all are a positive influence on a writer despite her musical illiteracy. TwoSetViolin is an inspiration to all no matter what art they make.

This is more stupid than logic IQ test (arts have not scheme), the result of these stupid idea is something like "the academy of arts relegated a 33 years old Van Gogh (he have just painted the De Aardappeleters) to study with 12 years old children because he wasn't good".

      @@quabledistocficklepo3597 I agree a lot can be interpretation, but judging a folk-country modern style of music only is not something a college music student or maybe (depending on the program) even a highschool music student would study/learn. Classical or even just music that is vocally more structured and less in a style that is supposed to slide in/out of tune between notes for performance sake should have been included in the test imo. Not to say the songs played were not good, but from a structured music background where every note must be judged for accuracy rather than specific artist expression is how we can at least train our ears as professionally trained musicians to refine our abilities to perform more works than what we like ourselves to serve a variety of audiences. But I appreciate your point of view as well, having not considered that side of things.

My professor would have denied my results if I had turned that in.

    Tbf, Eddy is using higher quality headphones. They look like Sennheiser HD 280’s, or something similar. While Brett is just using Bluetooth earbuds. Studio headphones vs earbuds for casual listening is a bit of an advantage. Also Bluetooth headphones/earbuds always have a weaker bass response.

    I do a lot of audio editing and yeah, beat "alignment" is one of the most subjective things ever. The tone used in the test was not some instantaneous click (as is possible with digital audio), it was a sustained tone, so then that calls into question what part of that sustained tone is supposed to line up with the beat... is it the midpoint? the start? the ending of it? The test asks about that level of detail but doesn't specify which of those alignments it means.

    I’m a musician. I took this same test. I scored a perfect score in every area. That having been said: I’m not half the musician that Brett and eddy are. There is a lot of subjectiveness especially with regard to the timing and tuning. Because as a musician, I think it’s difficult to know the difference between what FEELS good to you and what the test wants. It’s not always the same thing. There were times I felt that some of the timing questions wanted a robotic response and not the response that FELT best. All it proves is that musicianship and musicality likely best measured by the person listening. Brett and eddy are the shit. They’re incredible musicians. Way better than I could ever hope to be. Good job for putting yourself out there, guys.
