Does Chorducate recognize chord names?

Yes, Chorducate automatically recognizes chord names and scale patterns as you draw on the fretboard.

How it works

As you add notes to a fretboard diagram, Chorducate uses music theory to identify what you're creating. It will display:

• Chord names — Major, minor, 7th, extended chords, and more
• Scale patterns — Major, minor, pentatonic, modes, etc.

Why this matters

• Verify accuracy — Make sure your diagrams are correct before sharing
• Learn music theory — See how notes combine to form chords
• Discover alternatives — Find different voicings for the same chord
• Name unfamiliar shapes — Identify chords you discover by ear

What it recognizes

Chorducate can identify:

• Triads (major, minor, diminished, augmented)
• Seventh chords (maj7, min7, dom7, dim7, etc.)
• Extended chords (9th, 11th, 13th)
• Suspended chords (sus2, sus4)
• Add chords (add9, add11)
• Altered chords
• Common scale patterns

The recognition works in real-time as you create your diagrams.
