    • @aslefjeldstad
      @aslefjeldstad 4 года назад +26

      RoomieOfficial Maybe it’s a BPM thing. The song is in, let’s say, 107 and the click in the first example is 109 and the second is 105. When I try to find the tempo of a song it can sound on-beat for a while, but gradually shift when the beat gets “too off”. Maybe we’re hearing the part where it sounds on-beat in the second one, and just as the shift gets noticeable in the second one? If so you would have to have almost perfect time to catch it.
      Or maybe we’re just baaaaaaaaaaad...

      Yeah, I took it too. I've been in choir, ballet, and piano since I was in 5th grade (all heavily centered in music) and I did great on the two pitch tests (95'th percentile range) but when I got to the beat section, I could barely hear the music in the background in comparison to the loud ass beeping in my ear and I got somewhere in the 30's! Idk, thought that part was kinda ridiculous, rest of the test was ok.

      I feel that! I'm not a professional musician or anything but since I've had some training I expected to do better. I got 101 on beat perception which was kinda embarassing. But then probably a majority of people taking the test are at least somewhat interested in music, which might skew the results...

      I am not a talented musician but I still took the test, and I did worse than him lmao (although I also got 122 for mistuning perception).

    I took the test before I watched the video, and I definitely did not expect it to be so hard lol. The differences were just very subtle on a lot of the examples. I was in a children's choir for ten years so I thought I could predict which categories I would be good at, but nope! I did worse than expected on beat perception (101 lmao), WAY better than expected on melodic discrimination (116, even though I suck at remembering melodies), and about expected on mistuning perception (122).

    hah... exactly the same result as you! 122!! I did pause your video before I saw you taking the test, took it myself... was very disappointed with my results, started watching you, I was glad you had some mistakes too... and boom! same result!! I had though a tad better beat alignment (1 fail less I guess), and a tad worse melodic discrimination (1 more fail), cause so close!
    Definitely some of the questions were a bit too hard, but not in difficulty, but more like... what am I really looking for here? kind of thing.
    I see myself as an expert in music, playing the guitar for close to 30 years, producing music, and playing some piano, etc...
