The Capo Calculator is a simple utility that quickly calculates what key you can transpose to by using a capo.
The capo is a device that can be strapped or clipped across the strings of a guitar to raise the pitch of the strings.

To use the calculator simply select the key you would like to play in from the drop-down list. On the right you will see a list of what key playing in the selected key will transpose to when capoing on a given fret.

For example: If you know all the chords to a song in the key of C but that key is too low for the person singing, you could try capoing to the key of D. By putting your capo on the second fret, you could play the song using all the chord positions nomally used in the key of C, but the pitch of the guitar would be in the key of D.
