Math on Stage is a Bad Idea: Using a Capo Without Confusing Your Chords

The song is in Eb. You want to play open G shapes with a capo on the 8th fret. Or is it the 7th? Wait, if I play a G shape, that's actually an Eb... but the chart says Eb... so do I play a C shape? Your brain freezes. You play the wrong chord. Everyone looks at you.

The Old Way: Writing "CAPO 3" in huge red letters and trying to mentally translate "Em" to "C#m" in real-time. It's a recipe for disaster.

The Bandfix Way: Capo Feature.

1. Tell Bandfix: "I want to play in G."
2. Tell Bandfix: "The song is in Eb."
3. Bandfix says: "Capo 8".
4. It displays G chords on the screen.

You read G. You play G. It sounds like Eb. No math required.

Pro Tip: You can set capo positions per song, so you never have to remember which fret to use.
