Transpose songs

  • You can switch between all instruments supported by smartChord (menu ‘Edit -> Change instrument’). The fingerings for the chords are automatically adjusted to the new instrument. Your fingering favorites are used preferably.
  • You can switch between every tuning (menu ‘Edit -> Change tuning’). The fingerings for the chords are automatically adjusted to the new tuning. Your fingering favorites are used preferably. Your tuning may have a capo set.
  • smartChord allows you to transpose every song any number of steps up or down (change the key of the songs; menu ‘Edit -> transpose’). You can use transpose using the capo or independent from the capo.
    • Each song can be transposed, independent from its source. The song is kept in the original source with the chords. If you edit a song, you’ll get the original chords. But if you like, use the menu to keep the result of transposition as the original song.
    • There is an option to keep the fingerings when transposing with the capo.
