| Can someone in notesland fill me in on intervals ?
for example with E as a root note, what are the 3rd, 5th, 7th
9th and 11th notes ?
3rd = G#
4th = A
5th = B
7th = D
9th = F#
11th = A? (guessing)
somebody help us out here.

Interval is basically the space between two notes in a scale. The
numbers come from their placement in the scale:
E F# G# A B C# D# E F# G# A B C# D# E
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

compound interval = 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
So, a Major 3rd interval is E & G#, or the distance of E to G#,
depening on the context of the term "interval" used.
The interval combination of 1, 3, 5 make up a Major Triad
The interval combination of 1, 3, 5, 7 make up a Major 7th chord
