Frequently Asked Questions

What is transposition in music?

Transposition shifts all notes or chords by the same interval, changing the key while preserving the relationships between notes. This is commonly used to adapt songs for different vocal ranges or instruments.

How does the capo feature work?

A capo on fret N raises the pitch by N semitones. When you select a capo position, the tool calculates the effective key change, so playing C shapes with capo 2 produces D sounds.

Why does the tool use flat key names?

Flat key names like Db, Eb, Gb, Ab, and Bb produce cleaner, more readable output in most musical contexts. They avoid ambiguous sharp combinations and align with standard music notation conventions.

Can I transpose individual notes instead of chords?

Yes. Switch to the Notes tab and enter individual notes separated by spaces, such as C D E F G. The tool will transpose each note to the target key while maintaining the same intervals.

What is the All 12 Keys tab for?

The All 12 Keys tab displays your chord progression transposed into every possible key simultaneously in a comparison table. This is ideal for quick reference when exploring different key options.
