Baritone ukulele chords

[Charlottehenry]

The ukulele chords are all gcea and don't give the option to set for dgbe baritone tuning. I would really like the baritone to be added to the chords option.:y:
Thanks,
Charlotte
btw, I just hooked up with irealpro last night, so #1. I could be wrong and #2. I haven't a clue how it would get done. I bought the android version for my cell phone and the Mac version for my computer.

Hi Charlotte,

As you probably know, the 1st 4 strings of guitar chords may help.
You could also try this trick:

Yes, Me too for baritone uke chords

Thanks, again. If I had experimented a bit first, I wouldn't have had to bug you with the questions.

Doesn't yet work for baritone uke, though. (Root names are off a fourth.) But it's not that hard to re-memorize finger positions after only 50 years. ;-]

STRIKE THAT! I just realized that if I treat my baritone uke as a transposing instrument and select F in iRP's Transposition feature, the uke chords are labeled correctly for baritone uke. (The small chords in the whole chart; not the large chord that pops up for each measure, that one doesn't transpose, but at least the chart chords are right for bari-uke. Nice!)

Brilliant. Transposing to " F" give us the Baritone Uke Chords in the ukulele Font display.
Thanks. Kevin

I play BARITONE Uke. I'd love to have that tuning optional without having to transpose to get the right tuning.

Isn't baritone uke the same as the top four strings of standard guitar tuning? You could just read those 4 strings from the guitar charts.

Do you mean you use global transpose to F but want something better?

Yes you can do this, but sometimes the voicing is not the best because the other 1 or 2 strings (the two low ones) supply what might be 'essential' notes that are used to define (aurally) the quality of the chord. With the uke diagrams, we took care to make sure its (four) notes would reflect the chord quality (meaning the jazz chords). For instance, if it has a 9 and #5, these are in the diagram.

Yes please Baritone Ukulele chords.
(Oi, I just filled out the survey and forgot this most important feature.... with this added I’d use ireal 10x more than I already do!)

Bumping this apparently old & discarded feature request.

Sure seems like it wouldn't be too hard to implement, since you've already done it for the currently-accepted standard tuning for Soprano, Concert & Tenor uke. Deciphering the top 4 strings of a tiny Guitar chord diagram is difficult at the best of times, but it's the fact that it produces way less than desired results, from a voicings perspective. Especially when playing Jazz tunes. I switch back & forth between Tenor uke & Baritone uke on the gig, and take a lot of requests. I would LOVE to not be transposing in my head while also trying to remember lyrics, or read them. Not to mention messing with app settings in front of a live audience, whilst also trying to engage with them in between songs.

Thanks in advance for your consideration!
