Strong match

Who this is for

  • Beginner keyboardists learning chord shapes past basic triads
  • Players working out scales for improvising over changes
  • Anyone who wants to hear a voicing before trying it

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Advanced players who already read and voice chords fluently
  • Guitarists or bassists — this is keyboard-specific
  • Anyone wanting song repertoire rather than reference material

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

Chords and scales together

You can connect a scale to the chords built from it instead of learning them as separate topics.

Detail 02

Online audio included

You hear the correct sound of each shape, which catches wrong notes faster than reading alone.

Detail 03

FastTrack series

Written for self-teaching beginners, so explanations assume little prior theory.

Detail 04

Reference format

Built for looking things up rather than working front to back. Useful long after the beginner stage.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Audio is accessed online, so you need an internet connection to use it
  2. 02This is reference material, not a graded lesson course
  3. 03No keyboard included — you need an instrument to practice on

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Do I get a CD or a download?

Audio is online. You access it through the web rather than a disc in the book.

02Do I need to read music already?

No. The FastTrack series is written for beginners with little prior theory.

03Will this work for piano as well as electronic keyboard?

Yes. Chord shapes and scale fingerings are the same on any standard keyboard layout.

04Is this a song book?

No. It is a chord and scale reference, not a collection of songs to play.
