ChordCalc1.4.2 - App Store

Now featuring full support for iPad, Retina displays, iOS 6, and iPhone 5!

ChordCalc is an evolving interactive calculator for guitar chords. It includes a fretboard to enter and find chord fingerings in 20 common tunings, plus Chord, Scale, and Circle interfaces to build chords and perform common chord operations. Add extensions, transpose to other keys, harmonize within scales, and more. Or just type in chords by name.

ChordCalc always shows chords in the context of keys and scales, and all its displays are interactive. In the Scale simply drag the chord around to transpose and move through the scale harmonies. The Circle Screen has three well-rounded ways to transpose and harmonize within the key/scale. On 4" devices the a unified circle view supplants the old piano view.

The Guitar interface is based on the guitar palette from the Mac app FretPet, so you can touch the fretboard directly to toggle tones, or use the adjustable bracket to choose a range of frets and let ChordCalc find complete fingerings automatically.
