Hello,

This is kind of related to another thread but to save confusion I'm starting a new thread for this question. Ok, all the other half steps as far as I know are referred to as flats, eg. Ab, Bb, Db, Eb... and then we get to Gb and it's called F#. Just wondering why that is, anyone cleverer than me know the answer ?

Thanks, Gordon.
