- Haunschild layout
- shows harmonies and scales in an order proposed
in a book about harmony theory by the german author Haunschild. If selected,
chords are shown in a way that 'valid moves' are
- from left to right, e.g the 2-5-1 move is displayed as three neighboured
chords. In general, all horizontal moves are allowed.
- vertical moves are allowed, they change one semitone of a chord (at most).
- diagonal from top-left to bottom right. I don't know why, but it sounds
nice.
- same notes, 1 semitone, 3 common notes
- neighbour chords are marked (an outlined
rectangle is drawn). same notes marks the same chord in differnt scales,
1 semitone marks all chords, that differ from the selected chord by 1 semitone,
3 common notes marks all chords, that have 3 notes in common with the
actual chord (its almost always valid, to replace a chord with this 'median'
to make harmonies more interesting).
- tritone
- marks the tritone substitute of the current (dominant) chord
- show pianowin
- if enabled, the selected chord is not pasted to
the pianowin copy buffer. Instead, all chords are marked that match the actual
contents of the pianowin buffer. This allows to analyze chords from the song.
