The Scales and Chords plugin allows users to capture and visualize guitar and piano tabs within Obsidian using fenced code blocks. When previewed, the plugin converts chord lines into clickable links that display visual renditions of the chords, sourced from ScalesChords. Users can specify chords within their tabs, and these chords are displayed in bold in preview mode, with the full set of chords rendered below the tab block for quick reference. The plugin supports multiple instruments, including guitar, piano, ukulele, mandolin, and banjo, configurable through settings. This feature is particularly helpful for musicians and learners who want an integrated and interactive way to manage and reference their musical notes.
