What do you double in first inversion?
In first inversion triads, double a stable tone. OR: double the soprano. ... In Incomplete triads, triple the root, include the third, and omit the fifth. In Incomplete seventh chords, double the root, include the third and the seventh.
What do you double in a ii6 chord?
The biggest difference is that you are much less likely write parallel fifths when using ii6 because ii shares a common tone with V (whereas IV does not). When ii is in root position, expect to double the root. When it is in first inversion, doubling either the root or the bass (i.e., the third) is very common.
Can you double the bass in a first inversion chord?
here's another way to think of it: the only time you can't double the bass is in first inversion major triads, where you should double the soprano instead. and first inversion triads is that diminished triads are always placed in first inversion.
