Master Your Melodies with Guitar Scales & Chords Power

Thomas Gunter's Guitar Scales & Chords Power is an essential tool for guitarists looking to enhance their skills and understand music theory more deeply.
To enhance your guitar playing skills, it is crucial to learn scales, chords, and the relationship between them. Additionally, staying in tune with the help of a tuner and refining your rhythm through practicing with a metronome are essential.
An effective method for mastering positions and developing muscle memory is to practice scale loops. Engaging in scale exercises aids in improving finger dexterity and the ability to improvise. It is recommended to start at a slow pace and gradually increase speed as you progress.
When playing scales and chords, swiping across the strings determines the direction of the playback, whether ascending or descending. Tapping on a note triggers its sound.
The scale positions correspond to the CAGED system, which comprises five patterns that cover the fretboard for each scale. To assist with learning the positions in any key, the chord shape for each position is displayed.
The tuner offers a chromatic mode as well as various tuning options.
Both the tuner and instruments use an adjustable reference frequency set to default A = 440 Hz within the range of 410 Hz to 470 Hz.
The Circle of Fifths feature displays common chords for a specified key, granting assistance in composing music, learning key signatures, and transposing songs into different keys.
The metronome provides click and drum voices, beat subdivisions, and the ability to set the BPM (10 - 400) by tapping. Time signature options include 2/2, 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 3/8, 6/8, 7/8, 9/8, and 12/8.
Create easy-to-print, save, and share PDF diagrams (color and black-and-white) of scale positions, all notes on a full fretboard, and diagrams of all chord notes on a full fretboard, with a size of 8.5” x 11”.
