Capo Your Vocal Range-Capo Placement Guidance

Example

A user unsure of their vocal range can use the tool to find their highest comfortable singing note by using their guitar. For instance, the user plucks different notes on the high E string until they find the highest note they can sing comfortably.

Scenario

A beginner singer-guitarist is looking to cover 'Hey Jude' by The Beatles but isn't sure of their vocal limits. The tool assists them in discovering their high note, then advises on the song's execution in a suitable key.

Example

Based on the identified high note and the desired song, the tool calculates the ideal capo position. If the song's original key is too high or low, placing the capo on a specific fret can bring the song within a suitable vocal range.

Scenario

A guitarist wants to play 'Shallow' from A Star Is Born, which is originally in G Major. If their range peaks at C5, the tool might suggest placing the capo on the second fret, transposing the song to A Major, which better suits their voice.

Example

After determining the capo placement and the transposed key, the tool offers links to chord charts and sometimes video tutorials for playing the song in its new key.

Scenario

Once the capo placement is set for 'Tears in Heaven' by Eric Clapton to match the user's vocal pitch, the tool provides a direct link to a chord chart that shows how to play the chords with the capo on the third fret.
