Build Shapes
Hear a chord and build it on your instrument. The root is given, so the work is hearing the quality — major or minor, and later the tetrad types — and placing the rest: basic shapes first, then the useful ones, then the inversions.
Triads in a major key on guitar
A chord sounds and its root lights up on the guitar; find the shape, then see it. Space reveals, Space deals the next. The browser only plays — the app listens.
