Oh you totally misunderstood me. I said num val is the cut off point, and forgot to say "when applied" :-) C triad doesn't have num val notation, and is out side of this debate. And yes, C2 means C and D only. If you want C-D-G, it's a G sus4 on C. >(chuckle!) You don't believe in a Cadd4 chord? That is, C,E,F,G, with >no 7th? I certainly do not deny any chord. My objection is what to call it. C- E-F-G is a FMaj9(Omit 3) chord, because when you play it, F is what you hear as the gravity center. As soon as you destroy E with added F, you no longer hear C as the gravity center. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list Finale@shsu.edu http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
