AudioTheory Guitars 1.2.0 – Fullscreen Chord Selector Update

Hi all,

Another week has passed and another update is now here. This introduces the fullscreen chord selector, which allows you to view all available chords (with diagrams) from a single screen.



This builds on the chord playback functionality introduced in the last update as you can also play all of the chords from this screen. There's even a mini-keyboard at the bottom so you can see the note positions.

You can access this screen in one of two ways. There's now a slide-out menu on the chord box, from here select the 'chord sheets' option. There's also an 'all chords' button on the existing chord selector (the cog icon under each chord) where a new chord can be selected from the fullscreen interface.

To accommodate the new menu a couple of aesthetic changes have been made:
  • The 'reset chords' button is now an item in the slide-out menu
  • The 'play chord' button introduced in version 1.1.0 has been moved under the chord (next to the cog icon)




You may notice that there's not currently too much in the slide-out menu, but you can expect this to change soon. More chords are on the way! This update is not just a new interface for viewing and selecting chords, but the foundation for managing a larger library of chords in the future.

Thanks for reading and keep practising.

AudioTheory Guitars 1.1.0 – Chord & Note Playback Update

Hi all,

Today we have our first update for AudioTheory Guitars. I'm going to be releasing new features as soon as they are ready, with the intention being for each update to focus on a specific improvement.

The first of these extends the note playback functionality – previously limited to the onscreen keyboard, each note can now also be played by clicking on it in the chord or fretboard diagrams. This is particularly useful when translating from guitar to piano; you can now simply click on your guitar note to see where it sits on the keyboard.



As an extension of this there is now a 'play' button next to each chord. Press this to see your guitar chord mapped onto the keyboard and the corresponding fretboard notes.

That's all for today. Thanks for reading and keep practising.
