dear pg.
a couple of little biab 2022 wishes.
1. user defined chords for use in the biab chord sheet.
ive noticed over the years , sometimes a user wants a chord possibly not in the list of chords in the biab chord builder set. it might be a dissonant or oddball chord or whatever.
thus i propose the user be allowed in biab to define in prefs up to 5 such chords.
lets call them X chords for user defined chords. the user would , useing a dialog, define the notes in each chord and save the dialog. THEN in the biab chord sheet...eg
c,X1 or X3, d or whatever as per currently or by itself eg X5 could even have a hold or a push/whatever.
ie X chords are treated similarly to normal chords and can have the same properties.
of course this would only be doable in midi. i dont know bout RT's cos i dont know biab internals.
the above feature might save some time by users in notation view or piano roll view entering special chords ?
2. another idea that might be usefull. sometimes i have to spend too much time in the chord builder trying to find the right chord for a certain time slot in a song. most times i know the notes i want in my head, and identify them on the guitar. then i'm left figuring ..what oddball chord is this in the chord builder ?
(i'm not talking simple chords , but extensions etc)
mario was kind enough to point out a site on the net where one enters notes and the chord is displayed.
would it be too much trouble to do this in biab ?
i'm thinking some people might be on holiday somewhere
with no net availability.
best
