Trying to enter a"Abadd2 (no3)" in BIAB. I attempted writing as Ebsus/ab but the instruments seem to be confused by that. Any ideas.

Try Absus2.


Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.
Cop, that's not how field sobriety tests work.

Absus2 did the trick. I would have never thought of that because it puts a Db in the voicing but it works.

That's because it's not a true sus2; it's really an add9 (which is the same as the 2, but an octave up). So you may (depending on the style or the RealTrack artist) end up with the 3 there anyway (the Db), but you still get the tension of the 9 (or the 2, if you will).

Here's how BIAB treats these. I've included some of the built-in shortcuts, as shown in the file, /BB/Data/pgshortc.txt

Note these are already defined in BB, and you can't over-ride these shortcuts
;sus2@2 add2@2 m+@m#5 dim7@dim 7aug@7+ sus4@sus 11@9sus 9sus4@9sus
;13sus4@13sus add9@2 7sus4@7sus s@7sus h@m7b5 d@dim J@MAJ7


Note: sus2 means 2, add2 means 2 and add9 means 2. They all map to the same chord.

Using "sus" will add a Db to your chord. Type in your original chord without "(no 3rd)". Abadd2
