</p>

Customization options:

  • v – YouTube video ID

Chord Progression Trainer

Perfect for ear training pages or music theory courses.

  width="100%"
  height="560"
  style="border:0;border-radius:12px;overflow:hidden"
  loading="lazy"

This tool doesn't need customization—it generates random progressions for students to identify.

Real-World Use Cases

Music Teacher Lesson Pages

Create a lesson page for "Practicing Scales" and embed a speed trainer pre-configured to your specifications:

"This week, practice your C major scale with the metronome below. Start at 60 BPM and see how far you can get!"

Then embed the speed trainer with appropriate settings for that week's assignment.

Guitar Tutorial Blog

Writing a post about learning a famous solo? Embed the YouTube looper set to loop the exact section you're teaching, right next to your tab or notation.

Online Music Course

Build an ear training module with the chord progression trainer embedded directly in the lesson. Students can practice without leaving your course platform.

Band Practice Resources

Create a "Practice Resources" page for your ensemble with metronomes set to the tempos of pieces you're rehearsing. Students can warm up at home with the exact click they'll hear in rehearsal.

Tips for Best Results

  1. Match the tempo to your content – If you're teaching a piece at 92 BPM, embed the metronome at 92 BPM
  2. Use descriptive text around the embed – Tell students what to do with the tool
  3. Test on mobile – All embeds are responsive, but check that they fit your layout
  4. Consider the height – Each tool has a recommended height; too short may cut off controls
