May 18, 2020 at 6:42 comment added Tim @OldBrixtonian - I usually wonder why something has been downvoted. It's not only polite, but useful to give a valid reason. Sadly, it rarely happens.
May 18, 2020 at 4:46 comment added John Belzaguy @Numpy My pleasure, hope my answer helped you even though some nameless person dinged me with a -1. I experimented a bit with that page and any chord that doesn’t have a 2 3 or 4 in it is generically labeled a “sus”. Other than that it seems to work ok.
May 18, 2020 at 4:32 comment added Numpy Thanks for your comments guys. For reference, here is where I saw the sus notation mentioned in my question. Try setting the notes to A, E, G# to find what their algorithm calls the chord. scales-chords.com/chordid.php
May 18, 2020 at 4:03 comment added John Belzaguy @DonHosek I too have seen sus as shorthand for sus4 on charts many, many times and sus4 is probably used at least 20/1 over sus2 but the fact is the 4 should be there for clarity so that’s why I explained it the way I did.
May 18, 2020 at 2:42 comment added Don Hosek I've seen sus on its own enough as a shorthand for sus4 that I would imagine this is a pretty standardized notation. But sus on its own certainly doesn't mean what the OP thinks it does.
