On the subject of concertina.net - which we weren't - has anyone tried listening to the MIDI of an ABC which includes "guitar chords". I hadn't realised that the ABC Convert-A-Matic actually plays accompaniment. I've just posted the following ABC to another thread and to my ear the '7ths' with which I lavished it don't sound as if they're 1-3-5-7. Is this my imaginitus?

Feel free to criticise my arrangement as a separate issue - it's the sound of the generated chords that's my current concern.

Regards, John
