Tool to display keyboard chords being played
Hi All, I was just wondering if anyone can recommend a tool, (standalone or VST) which helps to identify a chord being played and maybe even provide some suggested chord progression in real time, (hope that makes sense)... OH and btw a Tool that is provided free ;) Jim

JimmyBoy Thanks Scoot... Just wondering what this is and what it represents..

It's the note position on the staff - top block of 5 lines, 4 spaces is the treble clef area with ledger lines above and below, bottom block is bass clef areas with ledger lines below.

That had me perplexed, but it's actually quite obvious when you know.

One more to consider is the Strum Acoustic Synth. It shows a nice big representation of the current chord. When you hit stop, it erases the last chord though, which is too bad. This isn't as nice as the tool you point out that will show you the progression, but it's pretty handy imho. I sometimes use it when doing jams with friends so they can just see what I'm playing... or when changing the key of a project it can be kinda helpful.
StudioCat > I use Windows 10 and Sonar Platinum. I have a touch screen. I make some videos. This one shows how to do a physical loopback on the RME UCX to get many more equalizer nodes.

Awesome! cthulhu looks great and looks pretty flexible too with how much depth you can apply to it. One thing though, I am trying out the demo version and can't seem to fond standalone version of it...
