Ok, I just thought this would be a good game for all of us to get involved with. It should help us to recognize certain chords when we listen to music and make it easier to transpose songs.
So not just a game more of an educational tool.

I hope you like the idea, there is no need for fancy riffs or licks, so even absolute beginners can join in so long as they can finger a chord thats all there is to it.

Oh, one thing though, please make sure you tune up first :wink:

So here is the first of I hope many followers, same rules apply correct guess puts up the next chord.

Stab in the dark here. Just to pick a name. It sounds like a Bm7 or a Cbm7 depending on what key it's being used? ,,,,,maybe? am I way off. I don't have a guitar here(I'm at work. Shhhhhhhh!). :oops:

To me that sounds like a C major, although my ear training is non-existant so I could well be wrong!

Yeah. I was off....sort of. On and off at the same time.

Your both right in a sense it is a C but there is an extension (think deadly sins) :wink:

Erm, would that be a C7 then? Played open as X32310 (could be x35353?)

You got it Pete, well done. Yes it was played open.

Yer up :wink:

Its the top one, named "Name that chord"

Note; Only use the lo-fi version - for some reason the hi-fi option causes the sound to be sped up and raised in pitch! :evil:

The lo-fi version works fine.

Happy guessing!

Bmaj?(You know everything I guess is going to be based on B from here on in.

) Seriously though, that's my guess.

by **Embrace_the_Darkness** » April 25th, 2007, 12:24 pm

Nope, not Bmaj.

Bb7sus4 maybe

by **Embrace_the_Darkness** » April 25th, 2007, 3:23 pm

Nope, not a Bb7sus4.

hint; it's not a B chord of any type.

It seems a minor chord. Could be Gm?

Nuno

PS. Rod, great game!

It's definitely a minor chord. Listening to the C7 again it sounds like the interval between is a fourth so I'm thinking that Nuno nailed it. I'm trying to do this the hard way. :roll:

by **Rodders** » April 26th, 2007, 1:05 pm

would I be right if I said that it is C#m
