Or, alternatively, that > recognizes a Gsus. Serious, is there a command line tool or a GUI based tool that "calculates" cords? OT: At least I should fire up Qtractor now, but I'm still short in time. FWIW I don't care, I only know that the OP is mistaken, because I teach music and the pupils wished to know about theory. For "God's sake", in Germany we also have a "theory of harmony" regarding to it's functionality, e.g. c d# f# a is a symmetrical cord. Nobody cares about it's name, but we care a lot about the emotions people listening to this cord. Since I'm a guitarist most of the chords I prefer are named insane. Jimi Hendrix: Eb(no 3rd), Aadd9 and the sharp ninth, E7#9. Set to the situational context I simply name "E7#9" "E major", so a simple blues gets "Voodoo Chile"-quality. However, as long as we don't try to get a certificate from an academy, the names of cords are completely irrelevant. It's bullshit, nobody needs to know. For a gig we need to know what emotion should be transmitted, so we only need scripts that remind us to the basics, such as C or C-. If the cord is a 7, major or minor etc. shouldn't matter. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
