Will Dallimore's Music Keyboard Chord Chart is a stand-alone utility requiring no additional dll's, etc.. It can be dropped into your Windows directory (or any other of your choice) and a short-cut linked to it from the Entertainment section of your Accessories directory.

Selecting Chords
If you required the Cmaj7 chord, first click on the C button in the Keys panel, then click on the maj7 button in the Chords panel. If the next chord you required was C6 then just click on the 6 button in the Chords panel. The name of the displayed chord will be shown to the right of the keyboard. On a musical score a chord marked C is in fact a C major chord, Bb is a Bb major chord, etc.. This is the default chord selected each time you click on a button in the Keys panel, to select this type of chord at any other time click on the maj button in the Chords panel.

Complex Chords
Certain chords are made up of 5 notes and although Will Dallimore's Music Keyboard Chord Chart shows these chords in full it is not always possible to play all the notes easily. However you may be able to obtain the 'color' of the chord without playing all the notes in the chord. This will come with experience. You may find that the fingering suggested in certain chords may not always suit your hand, if not, experiment until you find the most comfortable finger positions.

Inversions
Will Dallimore's Music Keyboard Chord Chart offers a choice of every inversions of each chord. To scroll through the different inversions of a chord click on either of the arrows in the Inversion panel. By default the each chord when selected will be shown in its Root position.

Exit Click on the X (Close) button to end the program.
