Certain dominant 7 (#9) chords have strange note voicing that causes the #9 to be an octave higher.
Compare the E7(#9), which is perfectly fine…
…with the Eb7(#9) where the #9 is 8va for some reason
Is this the result of spacing notes out so there’s not too many clustered together?
its so the g and g-flat don’t clash with each other, but for some reason hookpad thinks it still next the the g so it 8vas it. this also applies to many other chords such as C(#9) chords
Hm, honestly I’m not sure. I don’t think that this happens intentionally though. I’ll investigate. Thanks for sharing this!
