Check that your operating system matches the available build. If SmartScreen, Gatekeeper, antivirus software, or an endpoint policy blocks the app, verify that the installer came from this page and review the release notes before retrying.
A license is not required just to read this page. If the product requires activation after install, use the license page for email, license key, offline use, and machine transfer details.

Fretboard Lab 0.1.10 makes chord entry immediate and accurate while keeping chord and voicing exploration—including the fretboard and alternate tunings—in the free Community Edition.
Purchases and activation stay with the distribution channel you choose: website editions use an emailed license key; a Store build exposes native purchase only when that Store offer is published, and restores entitlements through your Microsoft account.
Use the NSIS setup executable for the Windows desktop build.

Type Cmaj7, Am7, or I-V-vi-IV and explore playable fingerings sorted by position, span, open strings, and difficulty across standard and alternate tunings.
Built for guitarists, teachers, and songwriters who want to move beyond the first-position barre chord and find voicings that fit their hand, their tuning, and their song.
Enter standard chord symbols (Cmaj7, Am7, Dm7b5) or roman numerals (I-V-vi-IV) and generate multiple playable voicings from the guitar-core engine.
View voicings on an SVG fretboard with finger numbers, muted/open markers, and position labels. Sort by position, difficulty, span, or open string count.
Switch between E Standard, Drop D, DADGAD, Open G, and more. Export voicing diagrams as PNG, PDF, Markdown, or JSON.
