Transpose chords

Transpose guitar chords into a better key

Change the target key of a full chart while keeping capo and original key decisions clear.

Keep original key and target key separate

ChordMate shows the detected or entered original key, then lets you choose a target key for the current chart. This makes transposition easier to understand when you are arranging a song for a different singer or instrument.

Adjust capo without rewriting chords

Capo is a performance choice, not always the same as a global key change. ChordMate keeps capo control separate so guitarists can decide how they want to play the song after the chord chart has been transposed.

Use transposition after audio detection

After ChordMate estimates the chords from audio, you can review the result and transpose the whole chart in one step. The workflow is built for practical rehearsal use, where speed and editability matter more than a static output.

FAQ

Can I transpose minor keys?

Yes. ChordMate supports minor-key display and transposition, including keys such as Am, Cm, and Em.

Does capo change the exported chart?

Capo is stored with the chart so the exported text can show how the guitar part should be played.
