We’re giving four lucky people the chance to win a copy of Quiztones for Mac!

The winners have been chosen!

Here are our four lucky winners of Quiztones for Mac, chosen at random:

  • Duncan Whitcombe: “Ear training is awesome: I realised looking back that I did a rudimentary version of this myself well before dedicated ear training materials were available.  By the time I finished full time live music I could accurately find the exact 1/3 octave slider on the EQ within a second. This app looks great, I’d love to win a copy to recapture that accuracy.”
  • Tylerwidman: “Sounds like a good tool for all engineers!”
  • Terese: “Seems like a great idea and, as most great ideas are, it is quite nerdy as well! I look forward to winning a free copy!”
  • Jenno_boro: “This program looks so helpful, I need to invest!”

Congratulations! You’ll all be contacted soon with a download code!

Thanks to everyone who participated. If you didn’t win a copy for free, you can always head over to http://quiztones.net and buy your ears a new present!
