Preferred flat or sharp

orgazmojedi

Is there a way to override the preferred flat or sharp on transpose within the lyric editor or other?

For whatever reason my brain has a wobble with Db and Gb and I’d prefer C# and F#.

Everything other flat transposition is great and quite happy to input on a per song basis
Thanks

When transposing, Stage Traxx will prefer an existing flat or sharp modifier. So for example if you transpose 2 half steps up, a G# will become a A# and a Ab will become a Bb.

The preferred symbol setting is only used when you have an original chord without a modifier, then the new transposed chord will use the preferred symbol you set.

Hi Peter,

Yes, fully understand that but is there a way (I can feel the answer coming 😂) override the preferred?
I definitely prefer flat notation so that’s what my preferred is set to but it’s just those 2 pesky chords

Example;
Original Chord progression Bm D Em G
transposed +2 = Dbm E Gbm A

I mean just look at those horrible chords 😂

Can I change or override, anywhere, the preferred flat if there is no modifier?
not globally but in the editor?

I know it sounds and looks ridiculous but this is a workaround in the editor to have a modifier at the end
Bb#m D Eb#m G 🤪

Interesting workaround. Did not know that works. But no, there is no intended workaround for that. I would suggest to just write the chords in the correct pitch 😉

😂
But then what would be the point of not using the transpose feature you spent ages coding? 😋

Thanks for the reply
Workaround it is 👍
