Chord request: Diminished Major 7th

[raymb1]

Now, if we could control the chord inversion............

[CyrilleB]

Yes, this is another problem. I wish we could have more control over voicings and inversions

[CyrilleB]

You can also try E7/F. That way IRP will play the E note in a higher position than the F note (for F dim Maj7)

Working on adding the diminished major 7th chord now.
C Eb Gb B

[CyrilleB]

Sounds great! Thanks for adding it!
And while we're at it, here's a list that I've compiled a while ago of all the missing chords that would be needed in IRP. Those chords below can't be emulated by using slash chords:

C2(Maj7) or CMaj9(omit 3): 1, 2, 5, 7 (can be used to play a Gsus(add3)
C(#4): 1, 5, 3, #4
C(b5): 1, 3, b5
Cm13: 1, b3, 5, b7, 9, 11, 13
Cm(add9): 1, b3, 5, 9 (for pop/rock/folk)
Cm7(add11): 1, b3, 5, b7, 11
Dim(Maj7): 1, b3, b5, 7
Cm7(add13): 1, b3, 5, b7, 13
C-9(add13): 1, b3, 5, b7, 9, 13
C7(omit 3): 1, 5, b7 (for blues/rock)
C (bass): 1
CMaj13(#11): 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, #11, 13
C(b9): 1, b9, 3, 5 (for flamenco)
C13b9(#11): 1, b7, b9, 3, #11, 13
CMaj7sus: 1, 4, 5, 7

That's a lot of unusual chords.
I will slowly go through the feature request posts and see if there are chord qualities that many people are asking for.
I won't clutter the editor with obscure chords that would only benefit a coupe of people.

[CyrilleB]

Yes, of course, priority should be to the most used ones. This list is just for information. Some of those chords are genre specific (flamenco, blues, fusion,...)
This is the result I came up with after transcribing about 2000 tunes in all styles. Those chords are the ones where I couldn't find any substitute in the library to reproduce the same harmonic sound.

The Diminished Major 7th chord is now available for testing in the iOS beta on TestFlight: https://testflight.apple.com/join/s0ijUrAi

Coming in the next Mac beta soon and to Android sometime early in the new year.
