I have some questions about the chord tool, I am unable to write chords as I'm used to and I wonder if anybody else have the same issue?
for instance I'm used to write Cmaj9 instead of Cmaj7 9, also used to use the "add" for like C add9, meaning the tones c,e g and d,
I would like to be able to use these kind of chord spellings since they are common, at least here in Sweden. Now it's impossible to write them.

Re: using chord tool
I almost got repproved today because I used G2 instead of Gadd9. I had to put together some documentation to prove I wasn't making up these chords. I love to argue, but I prefer to be able to write Gadd9 or Cadd9 as chord symbols.
Where do I sign?

Re: using chord tool
oh dear - I just posted a topic about this issue. And now I realise that it hasn't been fixed since 2010? What a shame ... I was hoping for better
