About the key explorer

Pick any key and the key explorer lists its seven diatonic chords with playable guitar voicings in the tuning you choose, including alternate tunings and capo positions. Select a chord to hear it, see where it tends to resolve, and re-voice it onto a different bass note.

Build a progression from the chords, play it back at a tempo you set, and export it as a chord sheet. Everything runs in your browser, and the key, tuning and progression live in the page address so you can share exactly what you are looking at.
