I like the game up until 7 or 8 notes, but it keeps adding note.

I couldn't find a setting to freeze the difficulty where it's comfortable and where the melody can still be construed to make sense.

When adding more notes, it breaks the flow and turn a training for pitch practicing into a memory game for rain man, even more so when we make a mistake and must redo the melody partially.

Hmm - I was hoping that the Practice Mode would cover this, but I think there's probably some room to add an option where you can freeze the difficulty level - I'll see if I can add this later in the evening.

The "construed melody" is a harder problem. I've been playing around with the idea of using a markov model or even borrowing what CPU Bach did to try to create more coherent melodies over time.

Thanks for the feedback!
