Does anybody else use these?
These are a nice change to using the same major minor melodies and can add some funky elements to your music.

Ex: Jewish Scale: 1 2b 3 4 5 6b 7b
Very cool Arabian kind of feeling to it.

Hungarian Minor: 1 2 3b 4# 5 6b
Dark evil sounding.

It: visually shows which keys to use, gives you a play button so you can hear it, lists the key info, and lists compatible chords. Result.

Lots of handy exotic scales here.

The 'Jewish Scale' is actually the Phrygian Dominant mode, i use it quite a lot, it's very prodigy-like.

Modes open up a load of possibilities for melodic ideas, the Locrian is good for really dark stuff and the Lydian is good for weird jazzy stuff

these are some of my favorites.

I flat every note I play, that's how exotic I am.

Ok someones gotta do a quick rundown on how to read these. I know notes. CDEFGAB etc. Flats and Minors. But you guys are using numbers. Throws me off. Thanks in advance.

/b/ major..?

The numbers are the degrees of the scale.

Ok, so every scale is derived from the Major Scale. For example, the C Major Scale is C D E F G A B C. The Major Scale's degrees are 1 2 3 4 5 6 7, then back to the 1 which is the root note. So for example in the C Major Scale, the 2 (or the second degree) is a D. the 6 is an A, etc.

So now, if you read the OP where it says "Jewish Scale", it says it is a 1 2b 3 4 5 6b 7b. That means that if you played the Jewish Scale in the key of C, it would be C Db E F G Ab Bb.

Yurrrrr mehhhhh.

Chad you look like Henkka from COB.
Edit: Nevermind no you don't.

COB sucks so good.

I like their first few albums but are you dead yet beyond = poopoo

I really just don't like their vocals. And it's not because I don't like metal or don't understand metal vocals, it's just that their vocals suck. Really bad. I rather listen to Amon Amarth or some shit.

I just listen to the guitar/bass work mostly.
Amon Amarth kills it every time though. seen em twice
