\nIn this lesson, you will write Major 7ths in music notation, but this time without the aid of an instrument.<\/p>\n![](\"\/files\/tutorials\/theory\/intervals\/11\/major_7th_finale.jpg\")
<\/center>\n<\/div>\n\nThe easiest way to write a Major 7th is to find the octave, then go down a half step.<\/p>\n![](\"\/files\/tutorials\/theory\/intervals\/11\/maj7_octave_notation.jpg\")
<\/center><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\nAlways make sure that you are spelling it as a Major 7th, and not a Diminished Octave.<\/p>\n
A Diminished Octave should stick out like a sore thumb because the top and bottom note use the same letter.<\/p>\n
