Notes on Chord Notation

• I use capital letters for Major chords and Augmented chords.
• I use lower case letters for minor and diminished chords.
• I use 0 for diminished and % for half-diminished chords.
• I use + for augmented chords.
• I use a slash when a note other than the root of the chord is at the bottom, so C/G is C major with a G in the bass.
• I use simply 7 for minor sevenths and M7 for major sevenths.
• Where there's a note in the chord that I don't know how to explain in the name, I'll often put in an "add". For an F major triad with a G in it, I might write "Fadd9". I don't want to write F9 because I think a ninth chord has a minor seventh in it by default.
