I only want to keep:

  • A minor
    B minor
    C minor
    D minor
    E minor
    F minor
    G minor
    A Major
    B Major
    C Major
    D Major
    E Major
    F Major
    A♭ Major
    B♭ Major
    C♭ Major
    A♭ minor
    B♭ minor
    C♭ minor
    etc.

They need to be preserved on the line they are placed.

How would I do this?

I suppose that we should include the ♯ alteration symbol, as well !

if we assume that chords are the main ones ( Major / Minor ) and with a bit of formatting, in replacement, we get the following regex S/R :

SEARCH (?i-s)^.+([A-G])(♭|♯)?\x20+m(inor|ajor).+

REPLACE \u\1(?2\2:\x20)\x20M\L\3

and we obtain this list :

B  Minor
B♭ Minor
C  Major
D  Major
D♭ Minor
D♭ Major
G  Minor
B  Minor
B  Minor
E  Minor
B♭ Minor
E  Minor
G  Major
D  Major
F  Minor
D♭ Minor
D  Minor
B♭ Minor
E  Major
G  Major
D♭ Major
D♭ Major
G  Major
B  Major
C  Major
D♭ Minor
D♭ Minor
D♭ Major
B♭ Minor
D♭ Major
G  Minor
E♭ Minor
C  Major
C  Major
A♭ Major
B  Minor
F♯ Minor
D♭ Major
C  Major
D♭ Major
E  Minor
F  Minor
A  Minor
B  Minor
F♯ Minor
F  Minor
B  Minor
D♭ Major
G  Major
F  Minor
F♯ Major
F  Minor
F  Major
D♭ Major
A  Major
G  Major
G  Minor

Notes :

  • Whatever the initial case of the chord letter and whatever the case of the tone, there are changed into an uppercase letter, from A to G and the words Major or Minor, with this exact case

  • The replacement results are lined up

Best Regards,

guy038

Find what:(?i)^.+([A-G]♭* (?:minor|major)).+$
replace with: \1
check regular expression
