TLDR, what did they use to do the training, and is it available to the general public?



It was an unreleased progressive training program, with sections of immediate feedback, and sections with only feedback after a certain amount of questions.

The secret sauce is kinda a glissando between sections to try and throw off your pitch memory.

there are people working on recreating this in a web page. There are also people who argue this is not Perfect pitch, but just well trained relative pitch. It did fade after no training for 3 months IIRC.

There was a a different study that showed Depakote possibly aiding learning perfect pitch as an adult. Don't go find some Depakote and cram music theory, Depakote could kill you.
