Hi

When i write a new progression, when i write C7sus2 or Abmaj7sus2 Synfire answer me don,t recognize?

How can i write 7sus2 and maj7sus2 chords in Synfire?

I know that i can create them in the chords list but is strange they are not there?

Best

"c-d-g-bb" would be a recognized way to have Synfire play a C7sus2 chord, "ab-bb-eb-g" for Abmaj7sus2.

Just type that (without the quotes) where the chord name belongs. Synfire will then tell you how it names that chord.

The sus2 chords are hidden from palettes by default, but you can make them visible by including them with your palette layout ("Layout" menu).

Thanks Hi Energy and Andre for your answers.

I am trying to upload a png,jpg and pdf file but is impossible.

In the Palette Layout Settings window when i write 7sus2 or C7sus2 in Add Chord in Enter By Function says Invalid and in Enter By Chord the Ok button is inactive

Looks broken. Will check.

As an alternative, you can drag the chord structure "sus2" from the Catalog to a palette.

Hi Andre

In my catalogue of chords there is not 7Sus2 chord as you can see in the picture.

Must i create it?

You could play the chord using Live Chord Detection in the arrangement palette window to see how Synfire writes it.

Sure, you can add the interval structure 7sus2 to the Catalog. That's what it is made for.
