Random note prompts
No fixed pattern to memorize. The trainer keeps nudging you into real fretboard recall.
Browser-based bass note trainer
Find notes on bass faster.
FretNudge shows you a random note, listens to your bass, and moves on when you play it correctly. Simple, direct fretboard training - no login, no app store, no music theory fog machine.
Works in your browser with microphone access. Best with a reasonably quiet room and a bass that is at least in friendly conversation with being in tune.
Train the missing link.
Many bass players know the notes in theory, but need a second too long to find them on the neck. FretNudge trains that moment directly: see note ? play note ? next note.
Listens to your bass
Use your microphone. FretNudge detects the pitch and continues when the target note is played.
Measure your flow
See how many notes you hit per minute and turn fretboard knowledge into something more automatic.
How it works
FretNudge is intentionally small. Open it, allow the microphone, play the note. That's the whole band meeting.
Build your training area
Select the strings and highest fret to create the perfect practice zone for your current level.
Play the displayed note
FretNudge listens through your microphone and automatically moves on when you play the correct note.
Build speed and confidence
Train your note recognition until finding any note becomes automatic.
