Tips & Info
  • Got ideas or found a bug? Hit the Suggestions button below — all feedback helps.
  • Everything runs locally in your browser. No data is sent or stored anywhere.
  • MIDI input is more precise than microphone. For audio mode, tweak detection in Advanced settings if it feels off.
  • Microphone placement matters. Put your device 30–50 cm from the instrument, pointing at the soundhole on guitar or just above the strings on piano. Quiet room helps; avoid having the device on a vibrating surface.
  • If a chord isn't being detected in microphone mode, try playing it one octave higher or lower — the detection can be picky at the extremes of the pitch range.
  • Instead of pure random chords, try Chord progressions mode — it walks you through real progressions used in jazz and pop standards. Feel free to add your own
