How the Harmonica Bending Trainer works

A free, online trainer for bending notes on the 10-hole diatonic harmonica. It listens through your microphone, shows how far your note has bent, and tells you what to fix after every attempt. There's nothing to install and no account, and your audio never leaves your device.

  1. Pick your key. All 12 keys, plus Low D, Low E, Low F, Low G and High G.
  2. Choose a bend. Every draw bend and blow bend, with overblows and overdraws for advanced players. New to bending? Start with the 4 draw half step.
  3. Play and watch the gauge. Play the natural note, then bend it down until the gauge settles in the green. Hold it, let go, and read the tip.
