Scale & arpeggio finder
Map any scale, mode or arpeggio onto the fretboard in any key, labelled by degree or note name, and hear it.
Using the finder
- Learn shapes in windows, not the whole neck. Set a five-fret window (for example frets 4 to 8), play the scale from the lowest root to the highest note and back, then move the window.
- Switch labels to degrees when you practise improvising: hearing "that is the b7" is what lets you transfer a line to another chord.
- Arpeggio mode shows chord tones only. Alternate between the arpeggio and the scale over the same chord to hear which notes are "home" (chord tones) and which are "colour" (tensions).
- The scale and chord spellings shown here are generated by the course engine; the "Chords this scale fits" line lists chord types every one of whose notes lies inside the scale.
