Hi, recently i decided to make some hard copys of some of our bands tunes however when writing down i came across a chord i was unfamilar with the name of.
The chord is (x977xx)
I was just using it as i thought it sounded good and the notes fit into the scale i was using so i figured there was nothing wrong, but i never took the time to find out the name.
The notes are F#, A, D
Now noticed that its the same notes as a D major triad i was thinking that this may be an inversion of some sort? If so how would it be notated? Or is it a simple D/F# or something like that?
Any help would be appreciated.
D, F# and A make up a Dmaj chord.

yep, just an inverted D major chord. I supose it could be called D/F#, since F# is the lowest note. At least, that's how i'd write it.
Don't forget, there are many names for a chord, and many ways to name a chord.
Hmm, so how would you name/notate an interval... say
(x54xxx)
Thats D and F# again, this is just the 3rd how would it be written?
Yeh I made a post but it was wrong(need to read better). I would say it would be D3.

That would seem the obvious however for example, a major 6th interval couldn't be written D6 or something as that would imply 1,3,5,6. So does anyone know how you would write just an interval other than 5th e.g 1,6?
