Chordopia
Chordopia is a chord finder app for guitar, ukulele, and mandolin.
It runs on the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Highlights
-
It works both ways! You can enter a chord name and Chordopia
will show you chord diagrams for many different voicings of that chord.
Or you can do the reverse: drag the dots in
the chord diagram to different frets, and Chordopia will tell you what the new
chord is called.
- Sound — Chordopia not only shows you the chord diagram for each
voicing, but also lets you hear how it will sound.
- Supports alternate tunings such as drop-D and DADGAD, as well as arbitrary custom tunings.
- Chordopia is not just a fixed chord book of predefined chord
diagrams. Instead, it works by searching through all possible combinations of
finger positions on your instrument to find the ones that produce the
chord you want, all in a fraction of a second. It then shows you the
best ones first, based on how easy they are to play and how good they
sound.
- Chordopia knows 50 chord types for each of the 12 root notes for a
total of 600 chords, not counting variants with an out-of-chord
alternate bass. The number of voicings varies by chord, instrument
and tuning; for example, for a guitar in standard tuning, there are
more than 100,000 distinct voicings to discover.
Chordopia is a veritable cornucopia of chord voicings!
