What's new in Rhythm Chaser 1.4

Feb 10, 2021
  • You can now select from one of three levels of accuracy when running the tests. Most Accurate still (as before) requires an accuracy level of a 60th of a second to score a perfect 'hit'. Medium makes a small adjustment to your results to make each note a little more accurate, and Relaxed is even more generous. This is to make the tests more encouraging to younger users and less experienced music readers.

New in Rhythm Chaser 1.3 (Feb 8, 2021)

  • n addition to the original piano sound, there are 12 other real instrument sounds to choose from. More experienced users can also add their own in the 'user' folder if they wish to. Details below.
  • Adding sounds to the user folder:
  • Samples must be in WAV format, no longer than one second long for each note, and there must be files for c.wav, d.wav, e.wav, f.wav, g.wav, a.wav, and ch.wav. The actual notes played in the files do not need to be c,d,e etc. but must be named as such.

New in Rhythm Chaser 1.2 (Aug 12, 2020)

  • You can repeat tests until you are happy (or fed up!)
  • In the Results window you can now play back your last test.
  • The skill levels have been redesigned slightly
  • Midi play on Windows uses better random note choices
  • Options (mode of test, tempo, midi or keyboard input etc.) are now saved with Scores data.
  • Bugs cured:
  • Tempo slider now cannot be changed during a test.
  • Graphical Results display was inaccurate if the tempo was changed from when the test was run

New in Rhythm Chaser 1.1 (Aug 6, 2020)

  • Midi input in addition to computer input is possible.
  • Tempo control over a wide range
  • Bugs fixed:
  • If the user played no notes at all the accidental 'division by zero' has been corrected. If you suffered from this then just delete your 'mydata' file and start again to keep a track of your accuracy progress.
