TheoryCanvas, a harmonic playground for players
An interactive music-theory workspace for exploring scales, generating chord progressions, mapping harmonic journeys, and practicing across guitar, bass, ukulele, and piano.
- For
- Players studying harmony and chord movement
- Worth noticing
- Journey settings include borrowed chords, secondary dominants, modulation, deceptive endings, and unresolved destinations.
Field notes
The workspace combines scale selection, progression generation, harmonic analysis, and playback rather than presenting isolated reference charts. Its mode list extends from common major and minor scales to altered, harmonic-major, bebop, diminished, and Prometheus variants. The Harmonic Journey controls make the system especially concrete: users can choose secondary dominants, parallel-minor borrowing, modulation, deceptive endings, or an unresolved destination, then inspect chord paths and gravity markers.
