E Minor 11 Guitar Chord
Hey what’s up, it’s Andrew. This is my All Guitar Chords Tool. This chord tool is a work in progress at the moment, but as you can see, the bare bones show you what it’s capable of.
The goal is to have as many guitar chords as possible organized by chord and key signature. You’ll find Major, Minor, Extended, Altered, and uncommon chords as well – all in one place.
All the while having the ability to shift between voicings and hear what the chord is going to sound like in real time.
Notice how the chord also tells you which note is what part of the chord, ie, the root, the 3rd, 5th, or the 7th.
However, as of now, the tool doesn’t understand enharmonics that well. For instance, it says that the C# in a C# major chord is a Db. While they are the same note, that difference isn’t theoretically correct.
But like I said, it’s a work in progress.
Let me know what you think of it in in the comment section below. And what kind of chords you’d like to see added to it.
