Improved Chord Detection Engine

We have almost finished work on an improved Chord Detection Engine that will improve the accuracy of chord detection and increase the number of detectable chords. The current engine is only capable of detecting the Major, Minor, Major7 and Minor7 chord types. However the new engine will detect those plus Augmented, Diminished, Dominant7 and Minor/Major7 chord types. The new engine also has improved smoothing of the detected chords so there will be less fast flipping between very similar sounding chords.

The plan is to release the improved engine as part of an update to our Chord Tutor app, increasing the number of unique chords to practice from 24 up to 96. Once we are happy the engine is a success in Chord Tutor it will be fitted into Chord Detector v2.0.
