How Do I Fit In?

Chords have lots of observable properties. The chord analysis lets you see a few of the more interesting and useful facets of the Current Chord.

Modes of Each Key

Every chord can play multiple roles. Any simple Major triad has three roles as an Ionian chord, the I, IV, and V. Multiply this by eight modes and each chord becomes even more flexible. This analysis shows you all the modes and scales that fit the Current Chord.

 

Keys of Each Mode

This is the same analysis as above except that the modes are shown on the left and the keys are shown across the columns.

 

Intervals

This analysis shows the intervals of your chord starting from each note. Knowing the intervals is helpful in setting up lead lines. For example, if your chord has a sixth interval off of the root you might try using a sixth off the third or fifth.

Waves

This analysis shows the waveform that your chord produces. A sine wave is generated for each note and they are all averaged together to produce the final image. The shape of the wave gives an indication of its harmonic qualities. Try making different combinations of notes and see how they appear.
