Feature Request Import/Lock Note Ez Keys

[wagzisnotadrummer]

Hi, guys. I have another request. This one is for Ez-Keys. I’ve been trying to find software that will let me import/input a note, automatically rule out chords without that note, and let me audition the rest. I would like Ez Keys to allow me to “lock” a note in, graying out all of the chords on the chord wheel that don’t include that note in the specified key. This would really help me with songwriting and I haven’t found a piece of software that will allow me to do this, yet. Please, please, add this feature request.

Not sure if this is what you meant, but the Chordweel in EZkeys will highlight the ‘recommended’ chords for the key that your song is in. You can choose from any chords though.

Thanks, Martin. The way that ‘recommended’ chords are highlighted on the Chordwheel is a great feature. I guess what I’m asking for is a way to whittle down the list of a available chords by making the Chordwheel only display chords containing notes within the specified key. I’m trying to audition “color” chords quicker. For example, I choose the key of C, but specify that I would like the Chordwheel to “grayout” all chords within that key that do not contain a “F#” note. So, if I then select a “C” chord and click the details tab, the only selectable chords contain “F#” notes.

This is probably an easy thing for guys with tons of theory to do quickly, but it’s hard for me to come up with a melody and immediately know which “color” chords fit. This would feature would really speed up my process.

I’d be happy to have the chords displayed linearly, or the option to do so.

By the time I’m entering them in EZKeys, I’ve already got the theory worked out, so no need to put them in a circle of fifths. That just makes them harder to find for me.

I want see A, B, C, D, E, etc.

Or 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th etc with inversions displayed in parallel?
