About this app

Stop struggling with complex sheet music. Start playing the songs you love by mastering chords.

Do you think you need to spend years studying sheet music before you can play the piano? Think again. ChordWise Live connects directly to your digital piano or keyboard via MIDI to teach you the language of music: chords, progressions, and scales.

This is not a sight-reading trainer. This is your fast track to understanding harmony, so you can play, accompany, and improvise with confidence.

100% Free & Ad-free. Built by a musician, for musicians.

🔥 Why the "Chord-First" Approach? Many beginners get stuck trying to decipher "dots on a page." ChordWise helps you visualize the structure of music. By learning to recognize and play chords (like Fmaj7 or Eadd9), you unlock the ability to play thousands of songs without needing traditional notation.

🎹 Key Features:

🚀 The Fast Track to Playing

Skip the Sight-Reading Struggle: While we show you the notes on a staff for theoretical understanding, the goal is to get you playing by recognizing chord shapes and names.

Instant Chord Recognition: Play any combination of keys, and ChordWise instantly tells you exactly which chord it is.

Real-Time Feedback: Connect via USB or Bluetooth MIDI. The app listens to your playing and corrects you instantly—no microphone lag, no guessing.

🧠 Understand Music Theory (Don't just memorize)

Interactive Lessons: Learn how chords are built. Understand scale degrees (I, IV, V) and how they form progressions.

Apply Theory Immediately: Don't just read about a scale; practice it on your keys and see it light up on the screen.

Visual Learning: See your keystrokes on a virtual keyboard and understand the intervals that make up a chord.

🛠 Your Personal Practice Gym

Practice Builder: Create custom workouts. Want to drill Jazz 2-5-1 progressions? Or master Natural Minor scales? Set it up in seconds.

Track Your Growth: Detailed analytics show your accuracy and reaction speed improving session by session.

Smart Suggestions: Stuck? The app suggests exercises based on your current level.

✨ Why Choose ChordWise? Most apps act like a game (Guitar Hero for piano). ChordWise acts like a teacher. We don't just tell you when to press a key; we help you understand why.

Perfect for songwriters, producers, and pianists who want to break free from sheet music.

Works with any MIDI-capable keyboard (Yamaha, Roland, Nord, Casio, etc.).

Customizable settings: Sharps/Flats, Note Names, Inversions, and more.

Unlock your keyboard's full potential. Download ChordWise Live and start mastering the piano today!
