Strummed Acoustic 2: How can I play an F-Ab-D chord?
I'm trying to play a strummed chord that only consists of these notes: F, Ab, & D.
I don't care if some of them will appear more than once in the chord, as long as it's just these notes.
On Strummed Acoustic 2 I'm selecting the "3-4 Patterns 12-String" instrument
Then on my midi keyboard I'm pressing down on F3, Ab3, & D4 and then I hit Bb3 that produces the strumming. But Strummed Acoustic interprets that as an Fm6 chord which is not correct because an Fm6 chord apparently consists of F, Ab, C, Eb and D which is not what I want.
Is it possible to get what I want ? Granted it's not easy to play a chord that consists solely of notes F, Ab, & D on a real guitar either..
Thank you

Well, in case anyone is interested, I realised that if I instead play the chord D4-F4-Ab4 on the keyboard, I get the right notes. It's just that the root is not F anymore but it's much better. ✔️

Seems like you're trying to play a Bb7 but I guess it depends on what key you're in.
Have you looked at section 2.2 'Playing Chords and Separate Bass Lines'
It says: The instrument tries to play top lines, as well as thirds and options in the very register you play them. This leads to an enormous number of available chords and voicings.

Thtat was going to be my first suggestion, but I assumed you had already tried all inversions.

Thank you I will try it out ! I'm on the A Major key by the way. I'm playing the E chord and then before moving on to the F#m chord I'm playing the chord I mention on the original post.

Just for info an Fm6 chord isn't F Ab C Eb D. The notes would be F Ab C D

Yeah well, guitar is a funny thing. If you play it as a bar chord at the 1st or 8th fret theoretically it's 7 + 13. Easier to call it a 6.
But you're right.
