Hi Clay,

Welcome to JPF and thanks for posting.

I like the idea of using "dom" for the dominant seven or nine or whatever when typing. It sure does help in that case.

I checked out the article. It is perfectly sound music theory, the only thing I would point out is about the harmonized scale. We don't assume the 2, 3 and 6 are minor or the 7 is diminished. The only thing we assume is that a number with no other instruction is a major chord. We build the chord based on the degree of the scale. In A, for example, 1 2 5 5 would be Amaj, Bmaj, Emaj, Emaj. To write out Amaj, Bmin, Emaj, Emaj, we would write 1 2- 5 5. Either way is "right," that's just the way, for whatever reason, that we do it here.

All the Best,
Mike
