Quick Start

Settings

Instrument: Switch between Piano, String instruments, and Music Score notation.

Left-Handed: You can make string instruments right-handed or left-handed, which determines whether the strings go from low-to-high or high-to-low.

Number of Strings: You use this to switch between ukulele, mandolin, banjo, guitar, bass, 12-string, and so on.

Tuning: Choose a tuning preset for the string instrument. (You can also change the tuning by tapping on the instrument head.)

Key: Choose the key signature for the musical score notation. (You can also set the key by tapping on the clef.)

Transpose Capo: Changes the names of the notes and chords when you use the capo (but not their sound). For example, select an F chord and then put the capo on fret 1. With this option enabled, the chord name will change to E.

Sound: The sounds that are used for playing notes and chords.

Play Sounds: Disable this option if you don't like to hear the notes played as you select them. (You can still play the chords with the Play button.)

Major Chord Symbol: How major chords will be notated. You can choose between maj, M or ∆.

Minor Chord Symbol: How minor chords will be notated. You can choose between min, m or -.

Note Names: If you prefer CDEFGAH instead of the standard note names CDEFGAB, then you can switch here. You can also choose "Fixed Do" Solfeggio (Do-Re-Mi).

Enharmonic Equivalents: Some chords will use hard-to-read notes such as F♭ and C♯♯. If this option is on, then such notes will be replaced by simpler ones, in this example E and D, respectively.
