+1 for text explanations.

I have a decent internalized understanding of western music theory and it's application on guitar but it seems like it would be a pain to try and decode the meaning of all of the colors, polygons and icons. Even if I did spend significant time on that, I fear I'd still be left wondering if I was missing some of the insights you might be trying to convey.

For the time being, it might be useful to just provide a key/legend where each term links off to some third party site that already has an explanation of the respective term.

Also, it'd be good to explain what the different views are good for. E.g., what's the difference, when viewing A-minor pentatonic, between the scaler view vs the pentanizer view?

FWIW, I'm on a moderately aged Android phone. If there's more to the desktop experience (e.g., hovertext?) it'd be good to add a note saying so.

Thanks for the feedback. I'll add help files and explain scaler/pentanizer differences. Scaler is "traditional" way of learning scales, but I think pentanizer makes more sense...it just needs to be explained bit more. My main focus right now is to introduce print possibilities. I am just bit tight on time right now.

This is great! I've been working on trying to work these out on the fly, and this is a great way to check yourself.

One feature idea: options to display seven and eight string versions of the chart. Extended range guitars are popular, and there aren't many great scale references.

Could you say a little more? I think I understand the "scaler" and it's how I learned the scales and how I practice, but I'm curious what the pentanizer is suggesting to do. Picking a root and an interval and finding it all over the fretboard?

There is a youtube link video link included which explains the concept.

That’s pretty awesome - I hadn’t seen it before. Thanks for the link!
