This is a genuine error that BiaB makes, especially with Sus2 chords. By definition a Sus2 chord contains only the root, the 2nd, and the 5th. That's it. There is never a 3rd in a Sus2 chord. Yet, when I type in a sus2 chord, the chords are, more often than not, jam-packed with 3rds. If I wanted 3rds, I'd type, for example, Cadd2 or Cadd9. And when I type in these examples, that is, in fact, what BiaB generates. So, why this incorrect duplicity?

I've also noted that, when it comes to Sus4 chords, things are different. Usually, I don't find 3rds being displayed with Sus4 chords. But often I do find b7's all over the place, even when I did not indicate a 7sus4. I mean, if I'm in the key of C, for example, it is very presumptive of BiaB to suddenly throw in a bunch of Bb's just because I wanted a Sus4. What makes BiaB think I wanted a dominant harmony there, especially when I'm in the key of C, where the 7th is a B and not a Bb?

BiaB is brilliant in many ways, but in a few others, it just seems to have missed the bus.

Yes, some chords have a mind of their own.

+1 for more accurate notation structures for Sustained chords.

My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.
