Figured Bass
Having trouble remembering the figured bass for the different inversions of V7? The numbers descend: 7, 6-5, 4-3, (4)-2. Check it out:
Root position (root in the bass): 7
1st Inversion (3rd in the bass): 6-5
2nd Inversion (5th in the bass): 4-3
3rd Inversion (7th in the bass): 4-2
Or, you can remember the Music Theory Hotline: (664) 765-4342.
The area code is the inversion numbers for triads in 1st inversion (6) and 2nd inversion respectively (6-4)
The next 7 numbers are the figured bass numbers for the 7th chords.
