Chord Transcription turns any song in your library into a printable chord chart, with a keyboard diagram for every chord and a bar-by-bar grid. It’s a beta feature: it works from start to finish, but the layout and chord detection are still being refined.

If something goes wrong, the icon turns red and its tooltip explains why for a few seconds.
What’s in the chart
Section | Contents |
Header | The song name, tempo, key and number of bars |
Chord legend | Every chord in the song once, each with a small keyboard diagram and its notes |
Bar grid | The song bar by bar, with each chord placed on the beat where it starts |

The chart uses the chords as Orfeo reads them, so the chord tracking mode affects the result. The chart is a separate file; the song itself is not changed.
Tip
Print the chart for lessons or jam sessions: the keyboard diagrams make it readable for beginners who don’t know every chord symbol yet.
