very cool! did you consider adding note sounds?

edit: also, what does the 'b' prefix signify? I'm not familiar with it.

I took that to be the flat notes so b6 would be a flat sixth note of the scale.
A minor has no flat notes, but when selected, shows b3, b6, and b7. I must not understand what you mean by 'flat note of a scale'.
I hope this might help (I am not very good at explaining it): https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/17426/naming-scale...
Cool. I understand now after reading the discussions in the link a few times. Sadly, I never delved very deep into music theory, despite having played guitar for nearly 20 years.
Give it a shot, it's worth it. I also played for years before I started looking into theory part, but I wish I started way earlier.
