The rule we should agree on for consistency is that number represents the highest note always, i.e., 6 means no 7th, 13th means it could contain all the available tensions in the voicing. Your example, C-F-Bb can be C7(sus omit 5th) or C-7(sus omit 5th). If it were written as C-11, you can expect to hear 4th voicings like C-F- Bb from most of the players, but you won't get that sound if it were written as dominant sus. -- - 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
