You just can’t trust online information

As I’ve shown if 5 of X leads to X it’s a 5of. Otherwise it’s a scale degree.

If you have a 2- 5 of X it’s written (2- 5)ofX. Or you can have a (2° 5)ofX for a minor two five.

That’s really no way to communicate anything.

Yet everyone on a band stand would tainted if you called it in D

Works for me.

What is meant by “woke” and “tainted”. I’m not catching the lingo.

 

[Sascha Franck]

Yes.

Well, each to their own, but for me that'd introduce more issues than it'd solve.

If I wrote out a chart would you be willing to play it. My only caveat is to actual try it without being purposely contrary.

Wow, this thread went way over my head fast.

Auto correct whole and trainwreck. Not woke and tainted sorry

Ah. Autocorrect gets weirder all the time. It’s started capitalizing random words in the middle of sentences for me lately.

I think i may be able to make a good case for using my charting style. If I were the only one using this I’d question myself more. Now I’m just questioning myself a little bit.

 

[HomespunEffects]

Wow, this thread went way over my head fast.

Would you play the same chart that i give @Sascha Franck ?

 

[Sascha Franck]

Really, it's "whatever works". But as I need to communicate about sheets (and sometimes functions) sort of regularly, I rather stick to whatever conventions there are (even if some are just dumb).

Yes. And you’re right, sometimes it would make sense to write 3⁷ instead of 5of6- such as 3ˢᵘˢ⁷ to 3⁷ may be easier than (5ˢᵘˢ 5)of6-.

And fwiw, IMO it actually makes sense to use roman numbers for scale degrees, simply because latin numbers are the common thing to indicate chord extensions. I mean, 66 is pretty unclear whereas VI6 isn't.

You in Europe I guess lol

 

[Sascha Franck]

Also, while we're at it:

3ˢᵘˢ⁷

That IMO doesn't read very well. sus7 is way easier on the eyes than ˢᵘˢ⁷.

I always write it that way. But I also assume I don’t have to explain Funktion.
I mean if someone dient know a bIImaj7 has the the same function as iim7b5 then the conversation needs a few beers and a sit down

I would actually disagree as the bII root is taking one of the important notes away from the IIm7b5, namely it's root.
For me, a bIImaj7 is a more open sounding variation of a bII7 (tritone sub).

No. Near Pittsburgh.

 

[JiveTurkey]

Wow, this thread went way over my head fast.

Probably about 3 posts in for me and we actually covered this song for a hot minute

So now we can say any crazy shit and go, "autocorrect did it" ?
