Shadowing practice for Japanese — with the pitch of the phrase drawn out in front of you, so you can hear and see the model voice.

Here is how one phrase goes

The practice screen: the phrase 練習すればするほど上手になります with
                translation and furigana hidden, the pitch ribbon showing each kana
                under the rise and fall of the model voice, and the Listen and
                Record buttons beneath it.

Read it first

Translation and furigana stay hidden until you ask for them.

Listen as many times as you like

Say it under your breath before you record anything.

…slow it down if you need to

0.7× and 0.85× keep the natural pacing — nothing is stretched.

The pitch, drawn

Every kana at its real moment in time

The measured pitch of the model voice runs over the top. Where it rises, where it falls, and which sound you are on.

Record, then compare

The model voice, then your recording, back to back.

…and change whose voice you hear

Two male, two female. Change it at any time.
