this is a little more obscure, since this is designed for people who both
a) use a monome/nonome/fauxnome, and
b) don’t “get” harmony.
I fall into both of these categories, so I designed this little tool for experimenting with chord progressions.
Select a root note and a mode. the first seven columns represent different chords, major, minor etc. Hitting a button will trigger that chord for that note in the scale (pressing the third button up in the second column is a iii chord, the fourth of the first column is a IV chord.) In this way, you can experiment with different progressions.
Instead of triggering a specific type of chord, the eighth column will play whatever chord belongs to that scale degree in the selected mode. The appropriate buttons light up to make the progression more obvious. This gives you a simple, visual way to view and develop chord progressions.
