The immortal playwright and musician Frank Wortham once said: “Playing more than two chords is just bragging.” That may be true, but even if two-chord punks are growling over one progression, those two Must know the code. How do I proceed? Author Brian Mercado provides a solution on hackster.io.
I’ve owned a guitar for several years, but I hadn’t spent much time learning most of the chords and fundamentals needed to play the instrument in a group. I mainly struggled with playing chords I had never played before and switching between chords quickly. To solve this problem, I decided that I wanted to create an ENGI 301 project guitar to address this issue. I have a device that can record all guitar chords, including chords commonly played in many music genres, and display a tabular representation of the guitar chords on the SPI screen, similar to how the program displays images. I was thinking of creating one. Plays a table format randomly at the set tempo. You can learn music and guitar chords faster if the tabular format is always visible, and you can challenge yourself by increasing the speed of switching between chords.
