Kelso thanx for replying. I am not hung up on the order just confused about the individual notes.

Having a flatted third, Eb in this case, would make it a minor. Are there other notes prior to or after that chord that would make it a transition chord as Dan has suggested? Just curious that’s all.

Have you regenerated the chord? If so does it always yield an Eb? If so it may be a bug and should be reported.




The Eb is the sharp nine of C.

It does not indicate a C minor chord in this case, as the 9 is outside the base octave.

The Sharp 9 will hit home to you when I tell you this: It is the "Jimi Hendrix" chord that Jimi used to good advantage when writing "Purple Haze" (Although I'd much prefer to call it the Bill Evans transition chord...).
