QuickChords
One of the most powerful features I want in some guitar software is to be able to intertwine chords and scales seamlessly.
This feature is possible in Guitar Freak Workstation only!
You can select 15 different chords voicings for every chord you have in your software (as well as the ones you’ve added.
You can then, with a click of a button, see every scale that will work over that chord. A combobox become available and you can see the each chord with the white scale notes around it!
Click on any of the 15 shapes and see that chord or scale enlarged. Play the scale, the chord or both simultaneously with a button.
Click on the enlarged shape and you’ll see all the notes involved (great for practically apliable theory!)
You can also choose any scale and then see what chords will work over that scale. Great for composing!This means
- If you can play a chord, you can use the scale notes to add notes to the chord(making it a little more interesting)
- You can pinpoint the notes in the scales that are chord tones and resolve on them – more meaning-full solos!
- No box shapes!
- Play a chord tone on the strong beats (1,2,3 or 4) and any other scale note on the “ands” or other timing subdivisions that aren’t 1,2,3 or 4 and you have yourself a hot lick that works well over that chord
- Will definitely break you out of a rut.
- You can choose whether to play a chord or scale at any time!!!!
- The chords are the shapes that Grammy award winning guitarists use.
- Highly graphical interface – if you’ve ever seen chord grids before, you’ll recognize the shapes!
- Print the shapes out on your local printer!
