Capo Shenanigans (Or: How to Fake Your Way Through a Different Key)

Yo, so you stuck a capo on your axe to make it sound all fancy in a different key, right? OnSong's got your back—it'll shuffle your chords around so you're not sittin' there like "uh... what do I play again?" The magic happens automatically. Here's how to make it do weird chord stuff:

Capo Does What Now?

By default, if your song's vibin' in C# & you clamp a capo at fret 1, OnSong's all like "cool, lemme show you C chords instead." But you can flip it to "Up" if you're feelin' extra. Then it'll be like "nah, show 'em D chords." Pick your poison:

• Down — smash those chords DOWN to match your capo'd weirdness. It's the default because we're lazy.
• Up — crank those chords UP like you're actually transposin' like some kind of music theory nerd.

Display Both Chords (For When Your Band Can't Agree on ANYTHING)

Real talk: sometimes you're sharingone chart with like five different people on five different instruments. The guitarist needs the capoed version so her fingers don't explode. The pianist & bassist are like "nah bro, gimme the REAL chords." This setting lets you flex & show BOTH. Behold:

• Off — just pick one, jeez. Either capoed OR not. Default.
• Capo Chord First — show the capoed chord first, then drop the real one in parenthesis like it's a footnote nobody asked for.
• Capo Chord Last — show the real chord first, then surprise 'em with the capoed version in parenthesis. Reverse psychology, baby.
