Oh and, sorry one more thing. About Chromatics Intervals. Can anyone please explain to me?

It says er Minor 2nd Minor 3rd Diminished 5th Minor 6th Minor 7th. Their explaination like so chim =/

"Note: 'Bbb' (B double flat) is enharmonic with "A"... bla bla bla"


=/ someone help me

Bbb is enharmonic with A...

i.e.

the flat of B is Bb (A#).
the flat of Bb is Bbb (A).

ditto for the rest. :wink:

not the best explanation i believe, but this should be sufficient.
