Scale of the Day: B Flat 5-axis, Construct #1 - Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool

The B Flat 5-axis, Construct #1 - Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - Scale. Long name, small number of notes.

Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-1 no 2 - Lydian Mode

The E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-1 no 2 - Lydian Mode - Scale. The all-otonal Lydian mode gives this scale its unique spelling with the augmented second and augmented third.

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode 1% wide

The E Pythagorean Construct No.1 - Lydian Mode 1% wide Scale.

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - in Triative-space

The E Pythagorean Construct #1 - Lydian Mode - in Triative-space Scale. This scale happens to consist of the first three partials of the overtone series. This sequence of intervals then repeats at the triative.

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 2 - Lydian Mode

The E Pythagorean Construct #2, Lydian Mode - Scale. Pythagorean tuning works along a single line of just perfect fifths (in the otonal direction, or just perfect fourths in the reverse/utonal direction). Construct #2 consists of only the tonic and the pitch found two perfect fifths above (when octave-reduced, this becomes a just major second).

Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-2 - Lydian Mode - 1% wide

The E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-2 - Lydian Mode - 1% wide Scale.

Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-2 - Lydian Mode - mapped to the Triative

The E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-2 - Lydian Mode - mapped to the Triative Scale.

Scale of the Day: D Pythagorean Chromatic - Lydian Mode - mapped to the Square-root-of-2

The D Pythagorean Chromatic - Lydian Mode - mapped to the Square-root-of-2 Scale. A Pythagorean refinement of the quarter-tone scale.

Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Chromatic - Lydian Mode

The intervallic content of the E Flat Pythagorean Chromatic - Lydian Mode - Scale.

Scale of the Day: F 7, 5, Square-root-of-2, Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool

The F 7, 5, Square-root-of-2, Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - Scale. The final installment of a short run of 3-note scales.

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - inversion

The E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - inversion - Scale. A long name describing a scale with just three notes.

Scale of the Day: E 3, Square-root-of-2 Construct #1, Lydian Mode - reflected into the firts pool

The E 3, Square-root-of-2 Construct #1, Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - Scale. This particular scale construction is an example of a harmonically impoverished scale with uneven distribution that clumps the few member pitches close to the root.

Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Whole-tone no 2 - Lydian Mode

The Pythagorean Whole-tone no 2 - Lydian Mode - Scale. The otonal version of this pentatonic scale.

Scale of the Day: E 7, Square-root-of-2, Construct #1, Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool

The E 7, Square-root-of-2 Construct #1, Lydian Mode - reflected into the first pool - Scale. The 113.36-cent is the "reflected" interval as its relative proportion to 368.83-cents is the same as 368.83-cents is to 1200.00-cents. This is a technique I explore on these synthetically created scales that have very few notes.

Scale of the Day: E Square-root-of-2-axis, Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - 1% wide

The E Square-root-of-2-axis, Construct #1 - Lydian Mode - 1% wide - Scale.

Scale of the Day: E Square-root-of-2-axis, Construct No. 2, Lydian Mode

The E Square-root-of-2-axis, Construct No. 2, Lydian Mode Scale as one would find it on any conventionally tuned, equal tempered instrument. A harmonic space that draws upon the square-root-of-2-axis within an octave-space is essentially binary. Construct number 2 produces the same scale as construct number 1, and each is self-inverting. This scale introduces the concept of the second construct into the "Scale of the Day" cycle - which will appear with more frequency in the days ahead.

Scale of the Day: A Flat Pythagorean Construct #1, Lydian Mode - in Square-root-of-2-space

The A Flat Pythagorean Construct No. 1, Lydian Mode - in Square-root-of-2-space Scale. The 3 (Pythagorean systems are 3-limit just) is divided by the square-root-of-2 until one arrives at an interval between the root and the square-root-of-2 "tritone."

Scale of the Day: E Pythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode

The intervallic content of the E Phythagorean Construct No. 1 - Lydian Mode - Scale. As there are only two notes (and a harmonically equivalent octave), this scale has a small set of intervals.

Scale of the Day: A 3, Square-root-of-2, Construct #1 - Lydian Mode

The A 3, Square-root-of-2, Construct #1 - Lydian Mode - Scale. Taking an all otonal approach toward tuning with 3 and the square-root-of-2, 3 yeilds a perfect fifth +1.96-cents (relative to the equal tempered perfect fifth and adjusted to fit within an octave) and the square-root-of-2 adjusts this interval by a 600-cent "tritone" - resulting in the 101.96-cent minor second.

Scale of the Day: E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-1 - Lydian Mode - mapped to the Triative

The E Flat Pythagorean Octotonic-1 - Lydian Mode - mapped to the Triative Scale.
