The Chord and Scale Finder

Interactive learning tool for guitar, bass, ukulele and other stringed instruments. Explore chords, scales and tunings while accelerating your learning curve.

Chord and Scale Finder is an interactive music theory and fretboard visualization tool for guitar, steel guitar, bass, ukulele, mandolin, banjo, dobro, bouzouki, oud and many other stringed instruments.

Originally developed to help steel guitarists navigate alternate and unusual tunings, the app has evolved into a powerful learning and exploration tool for musicians of all levels and musical styles.

Whether you are: • learning basic chords on guitar or ukulele, • exploring jazz harmony on mandolin or oud, • experimenting with alternate tunings, • studying scales and modes, • or creating entirely new tuning systems,

Chord and Scale Finder can dramatically accelerate your understanding of the fretboard.

FEATURES

• Supports many stringed instruments and tunings • Create and save custom tunings and scales • Visualize chords, scales and interval relationships across the fretboard • Display notes, chord tones or scale tones • Save unlimited fretboard snapshots for practice and reference • Focus on specific fretboard regions for targeted study • Explore alternate tunings without relearning music theory from scratch • Excellent for beginners, advanced players, teachers and composers

The app comes preloaded with numerous tunings and scales, but users are free to create their own custom libraries.

When a tuning, scale and root note are combined, a Dictionary Item is created. These Dictionary Items can then be displayed on the fretboard in countless ways and saved as reusable snapshots for practice and performance.

Chord and Scale Finder was designed with maximum flexibility in mind, allowing musicians to explore genres, tunings and harmonic ideas that might not normally be associated with their instruments.

One of the biggest challenges of alternate tunings is having to relearn chord and scale patterns from scratch. Chord and Scale Finder helps solve that problem by making the relationships visible instantly.
