Coolpedent: A Copedent Manager application
I just wanted to post a tool that I have been using as a practice aid. Hopefully it may be useful to some of you as well. There are similar tools out there but this is my take on it, so give it a try and I would appreciate the feedback.
(Windows/64-bit) Download the .zip folder from the following Dropbox link:

I can't run it on my Mac. What language did you write it in?

So currently, I don't have a Mac OS version available. If there is enough interest, I can investigate the tools required to get one ready. I'm thinking Py2App, but if anyone is a Python developer and has a better option then I would like to hear it.b0b wrote:I can't run it on my Mac. What language did you write it in?
The OP says the Dropbox link is only for Windows 64-bit platforms right now.

I don't have (and don't want) a Dropbox account. Thus I can't download/try it.

Got it after looking at the Video.
One thing, "open" (F0) is not shown. F12 is shown and its a duplicate of F0, but most others of this type show Open.
My copy does not show Major/Minor chords. I only have options for 7th chords. See screen capture. (I am on Windows 10 Pro).

Windows 10 Smartscreen
I seen some replies on trouble downloading..I followed the instructions on the downloading video and it downloaded properly..however when I tried running the
executable Windows 10 SmartScreen would not let it run..I opened Cortina and typed in Smartscreen which it opened and followed the instructions on allowing the file to run and it ran properly..I could see a lot of Windows 10 users running into the same problem..smartscreen can be disabled.

Re: Windows 10 Smartscreen
Thank you Derrick for your post. My Windows operating system is 8.1, so I am unaware of Windows 10 behaviors, especially related to this application.Derrick Unger wrote:I seen some replies on trouble downloading..I followed the instructions on the downloading video and it downloaded properly..however when I tried running the

Correct me if I misunderstood the question or am wrong altogether, but in my view, the following image shows what I would expect to see for the 7th chord extension of the 6m chord in the key of C Major.
If the community would like the option to view triads or extensions I can implement a feature to select either type.

I should be able to select the Major or Minor chord, only. My evaluation copy does not have that option.
I would expect to only see the notes for whatever chord variation is selected. e.g. for an E minor I would expect to see "E, B, G" only, not other notes.
An application such as this can be helpful, especially for beginners, but needs a few "tweaks".

Thanks Paul. Followed the video and everything downloaded and installed fine. I am running Win-10, btw.
I like the name (i.e., Coolpedent).
Being a novice to this instrument, I cannot comment too much on how I will use it as yet. But it appears very well designed. As others have commented already, having just a Major selection seems like a good idea.
Very cool! Thanks again.

When I ran it before, I didn't have options for Major/Minor chords. Now, running it again it looks like I do. Something to look into, that it works one time and not another.

Jack, thank you for your patience and suggestions. I would like to provide the best tool available using feedback from the community. This application will continue to be developed and expanded upon to meet the community's needs.Jack Stoner wrote:When I ran it before, I didn't have options for Major/Minor chords.

Hi Jim, thanks for trying it out. I intend on making an update to allow users to edit the built-in tunings to support such variations. Once that feature is supported, you will be able to accurately input your guitar's copedent. Hopefully I will be able to get that done over the holidays.Jim Palenscar wrote:Thanks for this Paul. I downloaded it and had no problems. Is there a way to edit the built in copedent? I use a variation of the uni w a B on the bottom instead of a C#. Thanks for your work .
Best,
Paul

Hi Jim, thanks for your interest. I plan on implementing that in the near future as it seems that is the preference of the players on the board.Jim Cohen wrote:Hi Paul,
That looks really good. Have you considered starting with Fret 0 (i.e., open) instead of at F1? Just a thought...
I look forward to a closer look when I get more time.
Best,
Jim
