Every chord type — transposed to all twelve keys. Each chord is a row and its notes are laid out in columns (lowest first: 1, 2, 3, …), with a mini-keyboard on the right showing the exact keys to press. Click any row to hear it. Note spellings use sharps, matching the chord types tables. Have notes and need a name? Use Chord ID.
