Fretboard fluency in motion

Triads mapped across the neck, guided by voice-leading.

Triad Trainer maps CAGED triads across the fretboard, keeps the current and next chord in view, and highlights the inversion that makes the move feel effortless. Filter the neck, lock the tempo, and use voice commands to advance without taking your hands off the guitar.
