📚 How It Works:
1. A chord is 3 or more notes played together 2. Type any notes (like "GBD" or "C E G") in the box above 3. Watch the circle light up showing exactly which notes you typed 4. See the chord name appear in the center 5. Click Play to hear - notes ascend smoothly through octaves!
🎵 Octave Magic: When you type "GBD", you hear G→B→D going UP smoothly!
The tool automatically adjusts octaves so notes never jump down - just like playing a scale!
🎯 Educational Value: This teaches you that chords are just combinations of notes!
Every chord you know (G Major, C Major, Am, etc.) is simply 3+ specific notes played together.
