I envisioned the ap to be a visual aid to the guy with a guitar in his lap for navigating the fret board. Oh, and a tonic (or root) note is the first note in a scale and the note for which the scale is named (i.e. C is the tonic of the C major scale). In my ap, the tonic is indicated by the solid color mark with the SIN gradient. The others are flat colored and pie sliced by their position in the scale progression.
You can play polyphonic voices (up to 4 I think?) in the latest versions of QB64PE:
From wiki: SOUND keyword documentation.
Quote:Optional parameter voice& can be a numeric expression ranging from 0 to 3. It specifies the voice channel that will be used to play the sound.
Multi-voice support was inspired by Amiga Basic and Advanced BASIC (for the IBM PCjr and Tandy 1000).
@OldMoses so you could play a chord with up to 4 notes at once
@a740g is it possible somehow to play more than 4 notes at once as a guitar has 6 strings? etc.

Yes, you can play 4 notes at once with QB64PE's SOUND command, but what about MIDI?
Is polyphony supported? Weren't you wizards working on some new MIDI support?

You can technically play more than 4 waveforms using PLAY's comma command. In fact, the number of sounds you can play simultaneously this way is unlimited. PLAY and SOUND can play basic waveforms (square, sawtooth, triangle, sine, white noise, pink noise, Brownian noise, LFSR noise and pulse wave). You can play user defined waveforms defined using _WAVE.
If you are looking for MIDI-based player, then take a look at the excellent MidiNotes player / library by @Dav - https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3016

Here's a little visual aid I came up with to help with scales, modes, chords, etc. Capo positions can be set with left mouse and upper fretboard masks set with right mouse in the capo track. Center mouse on the fretboard will display notes on staff and keyboard. If sound is chosen it will also sound the tone. I'm sure I've gotten some stuff wrong...ignorance is bliss.

I've never played guitar, but this has caught my interest. Incredibly detailed music theory! I'll be experimenting - not that I expect to learn to play from it, but maybe expand my limited knowledge base.
Just curious: With my OCD, I notice there are five semitones between each string, except the 2nd and third, which only has four. There must be a reason: do you know what it is?

@PhilOfPerth I don't know for certain why the transition between the second and third string is tuned a major third rather than the perfect fourth of the other strings. I suspect the reason is to make sure the pattern keeps the "cowboy chords" easier to play, but I wouldn't presume that to be the case. I programmed in the tuners to make it easy to investigate various alternate tunings and how they might change chord phrasings. I know that a lot of pro musicians use alternate tunings in various songs. Jimmy Page springs immediately to mind as one who does a lot of alternate tunings in his music.

Thanks for the reply. It's not important, in the big scheme of things, Just struck me as a bit odd, that's all. 
I'm enjoying learning a bit more about the intricacies of music, and there are plenty of those here.
Great work!

I used to play guitar as a kid. I was given the choice to either give it up or keep it up and look for someplace else to live. I liked it so much that I tried moving out, but it's harder than hell to find someone to rent to you when you're 10 years old... especially when you can't play the guitar worth a .......

It's never too late to start again! Get a cheap electric (Squiers and Epiphones are pretty good) and a headphone amp, that way you won't drive anyone crazy but yourself!

Nope. It's just as hard to rent when you're pushing 70, too!
Pete, if you get one more damn hobby!!!!!!!
Actually the wife is great. I got an electric drum set, but then realized' why not get more out of it by converting it to a gas powered version? So I did and it didn't go well. They literally BEAT the _ _ _ _ out of me.

My wife is great too. She hears the same gimped up attempts at songs over and over and yet doesn't beat the hell out of me.
