Tritone substitution with German 6 - SOLVED.

Posted

I tried using Tritone Substitution (German 6) on a Dom7 chord, resulting in a runtime error. (Bug report submitted)

What is this feature supposed to do? Replace a G7 chord by a C#6 chord?

Way to reproduce the problem:

  • Start a new arrangement
  • Snapshot Harmony (makes a bunch of C Major chords appear)
  • Change one of those chords to a C7 chord
  • Select, then right-click the changed chord (pops up a context menu)
  • Select "Tritone Substitution (German 6)" from that menu (results in a runtime error)

The chord may be missing from your Catalog. File / New / Extended resets the Catalog.

Rebuilding the catalog indeed fixed it.

Thanks!

In my humble opinion, the program shouldn't crash like that when a chord is missing, though...
