How does it work?

Chord Explorer: Expand the "Explore another scale" block, select a preset or enter your own scale, click Apply.
What you see are the chords that can be played on the selected scale. The list is deliberately limited to the most important chords - major, minor, diminished, augmented, dominant triads, sevenths and suspended chords and their inversions are shown. Notes are numbered from low to high following your listed layout. Ding is 0, 1 is the lowest note in the circle. This works with any scale and any layout, including bottom notes. Scale degrees follow the actual scale, not the instrument layout. This way you can easily translate a chord progression from any other instrument to the handpan.
The same tool is available when you create new or edit an existng notation, where it will further help you to enter chords and arpeggios.
