If it works…
…probably doesn’t hurt the voice either!

It does improve with practice. I’m no champ at ear training, but I did notice when I sing in choir my “ear” improves over the season…and then it sorta goes away a bit during off season. So, like going to the gym, you gotta keep it up. But, also like the gym, you don’t start from ground zero after a lay off.
Just keep at it, you’ll improve–and you’ll be amazed at what you can do after while.

I’ve created a custom workout just for m3 and M3 now, and it’s just stabbing in the dark basically. I can hear the difference between the two when I play one after the other (like a C-E after a C-Eb), but when I hear a brand new one then I have no idea which one it is.
Anyway, I’ll keep doing it… Better than doing work.

@Akos, I don’t know if you’re already doing this, but if you’re not, definitely pick a song for each interval. I use Greensleeves for the minor 3rd and Kumbaya for the major 3rd. That’s the only way I can do them. And I definitely have to sing almost every time.

I’m not doing the song thing, but I’ll try that, thanks. (Singing is out of the question though.)

That’s a very good advice! It gets way easier to identify intervals with well known song examples
And humming?

I’ll need to take humming lessons first

The singing and humming are just for you, not for an audience. I don’t know how to sing properly, but I sure know how to hum/whistle a melody and that helps me indentify the intervals

I’m going to write the biggest hit of all time and start it with a minor 6th because all the song examples for it suck

You can probably try it for free as well, don’t remember, but it’s just a couple of euros so I bought it. Drop in the sea considering the amount of money I’ve spent on bass already.
