Riff Maestro also has a chord recognition feature that can automatically detect the chords used in songs as they happen. It displays each chord as an easy-to-read chord block diagram. How cool is that?
No matter how you use it, Riff Maestro lets you learn songs at your own pace, part-by-part, which means that you can learn everything from simple riffs and chord progressions to more complex solos and leads.

From guitar chord finders to interactive chord namers and transposers (key changers), the web is full of freely available software that can help you learn more chords and better understand your chord playing.
Here's my run down of the best guitar chord software I've discovered on the WWW (all free!). Thanks to all the talented programmers/creators who offer these great tools to the guitar learning community...
One of the newer chord finders and by far the slickest and easiest to use for basic chord finding. Simply select your root and chord type from the blocks below the fretboard and use the "prev" and "next" buttons above to cycle through several chord shapes/positions. You can also choose whether to use note or interval labels on the chord.
The only chord chart with finger positions, note names and intervals on the same diagram. A wealth of voicings and positions for every chord imaginable, colour coded intervals/notes, a useful chord structure diagram and neck-wide roadmap for your chosen chord (great for learning arpeggios).
Chord namers, sometimes called "reverse chord finders", tell you the name of the chord you enter on to the virtual fretboard. This is useful when you want to transcribe your chords using symbols (e.g. Cmaj, Cm9, C7sus4) rather than charts. It's highly recommended that you spend a little time learning how to write chords in symbol form.
Another mention for Oolimo as the most accurate and intuitive chord namer on the web today. Click your chord shape on to the fretboard string by string and, not only does it tell you the name of the chord, but also offers several inversion names for that fingering and standard notation.
Knowing how to play chords is one thing, but can you identify chords as they're played? This is a powerful ear skill that, if given enough practice, will allow you to transcribe entire songs by ear. Here's the perfect tool for the job...
Starting with major and minor chords, and moving to more complex chords such as major 7th, diminished and minor major 7th, you'll be surprised at how quickly you can train your ears to identify chords.
Either type or paste in the chords to your song and use the up and down arrows to change the key. The tool will automatically change each chord you've entered to fit that new key. You can then print the revised song sheet if you wish.
Not only that, but it displays chord diagrams for the new key so you won't be second guessing where to put your fingers. Hover over the chord symbols to see the individual chord diagrams. Simple, but very effective.
Brings together every chord tool you could want into one menu. Including innovations such as "chords to scale", "scales to chord" and an interactive circle of fifths, this site has always had a prominant place in my bookmarks bar.

Editor mirrors the current/selected Chord display in the Note Editor inspector. When multiple tracks are visible in the editor, all of them contribute to the chord displayed. When no instrument editor is open, it displays the chord of a currently selected instrument track at the current playback point.
After all, chords are connected. In other words, the notion that there are five thousand different chords to learn is quite misleading. In reality, most chords are an extension, combination or mix of other simpler ones. Knowing how harmony works is essential to unlocking the amazing world of chords.

Working together with an app, Coach gives you personalized feedback and captures your performance via a high-quality microphone. Without further ado, here are the hardest guitar chords every beginner should master.
The open string C chord is among the first ones a beginner learns. It is relatively easy and involves only three fingers. However, the barred C chord is one of the hardest guitar chords for beginners. Although it involves the same notes but is rearranged (in a different order), this chord is more challenging to play.
It is important to note that, unlike the F chord, we are not going to play the six strings on the C major chord. Instead, we play it from the fifth string down, omitting the sixth string. As a matter of fact, your bar does not even have to touch the sixth string. It can be from the fifth string down.
Remember the F major from above? If you simply remove the middle finger, then you create an F minor. Yes, just that easy! And now you can unlock all the minor chords with roots on the sixth string. Much like our original F chord, if you take an F minor chord and move it up two frets, you get a G minor chord. Keep moving it up or down for different chords, all minor with the root on the sixth string.
The hardest guitar chords every beginner should master will be challenging at first. This is particularly true for your first bar chord, which will likely be the F. Once you master this, other bar chords will become simpler. Remember to be patient, practice, and have fun!
For example, once you know the tonic and chord progression of a vocal recording, you can modify it to match the melody with your music. Similarly, knowing the key of your samples and loops helps you create a coherent piece of music.
However, unless you have undergone ear training for several years, you will have difficulty finding the chords of a song or sample quickly, even if you play the piano or guitar. Hence, we have plenty of tools that detect the scale of your audio, which in turn helps you find the correct chords.
In this article, I will enlist and review six of the best key detection plugins available on the market. You can use these in your DAW to analyze any audio on the track. Furthermore, most of these work in real-time. So, a cool trick I like is using the plugins with a chord detector as chord visualizers when recording or improvising an instrument solo.
Mixed In Key SE is a straightforward key detection software, ideal for contemporary producers who use a lot of samples and loops. It displays all the played notes in the audio as well as multiple keys or chord changes.
Scaler 2 is primarily a chord generation plugin that helps you create chord progressions from scratch using a vast library of built-in scales and genres. Among the many features of this plugin, chord and key detection are handy. Furthermore, in addition to detecting chords from audio, it can also do the same with MIDI clips.
The latter comes in handy when trying to use a complex MIDI loop. For example, many hip-hop producers use MIDI loops of live piano and keyboard. However, finding the chords from the plethora of notes such loops often have can be quite vexing.
Moreover, the plugin comes in two variations: an instrument plugin and a MIDI effect. The prior features factory sounds, whereas the latter is excellent for generating chords and playing another instrument.
Autotune detects a key by analyzing audio, identifying prominent frequencies, and associating these frequencies to musical notes. It finds which notes are most frequent and establish a key. For example, a C4 note is 261.63 Hz, E4 is 329.63 Hz, and A4 is 440 Hz. Autotune identifies them as an A minor chord.
Occasionally, software tools can give wrong results, too, especially with a synth pad or keys sample. For example, if the software is limited to detecting triad chords only, it could see an F Maj7 (F-A-C-E) as either an F Maj (F-A-C) or an Am (A-C-E) chord. 2ff7e9595c
