How to find a scale from notes
A scale finder works backwards from the usual lesson. Instead of choosing a key and learning its notes, you give it the notes you already have — from a riff you wrote, a solo you transcribed, or a chord progression you are trying to play over — and it tells you which scales they belong to.
Select at least three notes above. Umaro compares them against every scale in its library and returns only the ones that contain all of your notes. The match percentage tells you how much of each candidate you have actually covered: three notes will match many scales loosely, while five or six narrows it to one or two convincing answers. If nothing matches, you have probably selected a note from outside the key — a chromatic passing tone or a bend.
For example, E–G–A–B–D returns E minor pentatonic and G major pentatonic, both at 100% — they are the same five notes heard from a different home note — followed by E blues, then E natural minor and G major at lower percentages, because those larger scales contain all five notes plus more. Every answer is correct; the question is which note the music treats as home.
Once you have a match, explore all guitar scales, map it across the neck on the fretboard, see which chords belong to that key, or work the other direction and name a chord from its notes.
