Without always knowing the alternative Chord Name, **Is there a way to make searching Chords for Guitar more consistent? How can Scaler 3 be setup to find “Bm6” instead of “G#dim “?**  
**1)** Using Oomilo to find the Chord Shape, it displays as “ **Bm6** ” and also shows alternative Chord Name: **Bm6** is also known as **G#dim**  
**2)** Using Scaler 3 in Studio One 7 I want to find the same Chord name yet it does not find it by **Bm6** yet does as **G#dim.**

Hi @sadicus, this may simply be due to your specific search query. If you search for bmin6 or b min6 (rather than just bm6) you should find the chord you are looking for.

Thanks for the suggestion, search did not find: “bmin6” “b min6” “bm6”.  
**Request for anyone to show that that chord is actually in the database and working.**

Hi @sadicus are you searching on the Circle of Fifths page? As pictured, I can easily find a variety of b min6 chords using that search term. What chords do you find when searching for b min6?

All kinds of B min 9 / 11 / 7/ EXCEPT the simple B min6..!

**Tech support confirms it’s a chord search bug between macOS and Windows.**  
What to change the topic header to [known bug] ..?
