    Default Chord req: minor 13

    Although not as common as its other siblings in the minor chord family, this chord is still used in several tunes
    Just as an example, G-13 is the starting chord of Blue in Green, by Bill Evans
    G-13 could also be notated as Bbmaj7#11/G, but in IRP, the bass stays on the G (the most it does is just changes what octave the G is being played in), and doesn't walk anymore
    the minor 13 chord would be a great chord to add to the selection.

    I think you meant BbMaj7#11/G or BbMaj9/G.
    But I agree. Minor 13 chords are used in many jazz tunes. It's even more important than the Maj 13.

    Yup, I did mean Bbmaj7#11/G, just edited it right now, thanks. I agree that the minor 13 chord is more important than a major thirteen as well

    The tune "Maiden voyage" also have a minor 13 chord (second chord of the B section): C#m13

    It certainly would be a great addition to the chords, and would allow more accurate charts in the future

    Direct question… direct answer?

    Will this be resolved? The program needs the chords. When?
