I've just published a copedent / fretboard analysis tool in the Google Play app store. You can add and edit as many copedents as you want. A great way to see what you've got going on or to try out 'what if' scenarios when you're thinking about changing some changers.

The price is $4.99. You can find more details here.

Very cool. I just got a Samsung tablet, and the app works great on it.

I edited the pic to reverse the colors - I prefer a white background.

b0b, can you reverse colors on the app itself or did you do that yourself afterwards? I too find it easier to look at the white background.

I don't see a way to do it in the app. I just hit the "negative" button in the Android's image editor.

I'll look into adding a save option that will reverse the colors in the saved image. This would be the way to go if you wanted to print your copedent.

No iOS. Sorry! I don't have any of the equipment for it.

-- Update
The app has been updated with a few new usability options.
- Added configurable light or dark background
- Added save image with inverted background color
- Added 'editing' option to Copedent viewer. Enable editing from the menu
- The top grid in the Analysis viewer is now interactive allowing you to activate or deactivate changers
- Added home button and back button to the title bar for easier navigation

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback on this thread and one other thread I saw!

Michael, can one save more than one copedent on the app, for example an E9 and a C6? It would be a hassle to change it back and forth, so hopefully one can save more than one copedent. (You probably thought of that, right?)

Yes Jim, I have my D-10 & S-10 both in the app, and it looks like there's room for lots more.

Post  Posted 14 Jul 2017 12:51 pm     Mutual Exclusions
Reply with quote

Hi Michael, I just downloaded this and have been tweaking the copedent and have some questions for you:

Is there any way to remove a 'mutual exclusion' from the list? Your program seems to assume that one would never use 2 feet on C6, but some of us do (e.g., pedals 5+7 together, which is pre-listed as an exclusion).

Also, while trying to figure out if I could remove an exclusion, I accidentally added one that shouldn't be there. So, again, it raises the question of whether one can remove any from the list.

Thank you.

Jim

Thanks Michael, pretty handy app. Another suggestion, could you make the open string notes on the copedent window last longer (sustain) for a tuning reference.

Great little app.

Jim, it looks like you can tap and hold to get a delete option on the exclusions section.
