Liner notes: common questions
Is LandChords a free songwriting app?
Yes. LandChords is a free online songwriting app. Sign up and you can build chord progressions, write lyrics, record vocal takes, and save two full songs to your library with no credit card. Pro removes the limits when you need more.
Do I need to know music theory to write a song here?
No. The chord maker works in Roman-numeral degrees and shows you which chords belong in your key, so beginners can build progressions that sound right by ear. If you do know theory, borrowed chords, inversions, and Nashville numbers are all there too.
Does LandChords include a chord maker or progression generator?
Yes. The built-in ChordMaker lets you build chord progressions in any key and hear them with 15 sampled instruments, and the AI can generate a progression in your key and genre when you are stuck.
Is LandChords an online DAW?
It is a simple browser DAW for the writing and demo stage: a multi-track vocal recorder, a 16-step drum machine, baked backing tracks, and WAV export (Pro), without the mixing and effects depth of a full DAW. Nothing to install.
Can I organize songs into albums and share them?
Yes. Your songs live in one library, grouped into albums with cover art. Hit Preview to share a public link; listeners hear your backing track and vocals mixed together, no account needed.
