Christine Posted April 10 Share Posted April 10 Hello: Within each lesson, there is text/readable info. with samples inbetween, for example (see below). Is there are way that this can be downloaded to review later? Currently, I am copying and pasting in a word doc, which is a pain. This is stuff, I like to review and refer back to in the future. Is there a way to download stuff like this? Thanks. What is the difference between Sus2 and Add2 chords? (section on Mu Major Chords....) Since sus2 chords and add2 chords both depart from the familiar structure of basic triads (root–3rd–5th), many beginner students are unsure what to do with the 2nd when they see either chord symbol. Although sus2 chords and add2 chords are similar, they are not the same. Comparatively speaking, add2 chords sound brighter than sus2 chords (see examples below). When you see the “sus” chord symbol, this is shorthand for suspended. Usually, the “sus” is followed by a number, such as sus2 or sus4. However, when there is not a number present in the chord suffix, then sus4 is assumed. In a suspension, the 3rd of the chord is replaced by an adjacent note—either the 4th or the 2nd. Therefore, C(sus2) is a three-note chord containing the notes C–D–G. Remember, the 2nd (the note D) replaces the 3rd (the note E). On the other hand, when you see an “add” chord suffix, this indicates that you are dealing with a triad plus an added color note. The most common type of add chord is an add2, which can also be called an add9. Therefore, C(add2) is a C major triad with an added 2nd: C–D–E–G.

James F Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Most browsers offer an option to Print as PDF, portable document format, opened by Adobe Acrobat and others. I'll offer a couple of considerations - First, while your current copy & paste into Word method may be more of "a pain," it may provide you more exposure to the content and better help you comprehend and retain the material than the easier and quicker "Print as PDF" and save it option. If you have to handle, review, and organize the notes, the content may stick better. Second, and perhaps more importantly, it appears you're referring to Quick Tips and calling these Lessons. While Quick Tips are informative, they do, as the name suggests, provide a quick and necessarily superficial treatment of the topic. I view the Quick Tips as introductory, even teaser content, like those food samples offered to passers by outside the restaurant, i.e., just a taste to whet your appetite and, hopefully, get you in the door. Now that you're a fully-fledged subscriber, as opposed to them non- and partially-fledged folk, you have access to the deeper dive Courses and Tracks usually listed in the Conclusion section, at the bottom of the Quick Tips. If you're interested in the subject of the Quick Tip, you may enjoy the related Course(s), as well, if not more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
