I invented the system up the scale in minor, down the scale in reversed minor (Minor-Minor & Major-Major).

Got a new one.

Two Tone - Scale widening.

Base - Tone - Tone - Semi Tone - Tone - Tone - Tone - Semi Tone.

To:

Base - Two Tone - Two Tone - Tone - Two Tone - Two Tone - Two Tone - Tone.

Producing a wider sound.

What do you think? Give it a try, post your results on this page.

Cheers.

Paul G Griffiths.

Just invented something new!

Grab a tune & split & swap the scale.

CDEFGABC to GABC-CDEF.

So to put this into standard music terminology you're saying you have transformed this:

C-D-E-F-G-A-B-C

(also known as the diatonic major scale)

into this:

C-E-G#-Bb-D-F#-Bb-C

(essentially just an augmented triad on C and an augmented triad on Bb)

Is this what you're saying? It's really hard to tell since you don't use standard terminology. "Two Tones" is generally referred to as a "major third." "Base" is also a peculiar term. I assume you mean the first scale degree or "tonic" of the scale?

N.B. - The following may also apply to the previous quote of yours depending on what you meant.

Scales are just ways of organizing pitch collections that make up keys (assuming we're talking tonal music here). Reordering the pitches of a scale has no effect on how each pitch functions as a member of the scale. It's the ordering that happens in the actual music we make that makes the difference.

It's not an "invention" by any stretch. All you've done is taken the two tetrachords of the C major scale and reordered them. You see these kind of claims a lot from people who have not studied music and figure out some aspect of music on their own and believe that they must have invented this thing they have "discovered."

I thought you meant dubstep by 'two tone' ie. boom and squeek.

I'd extend this scale to the pig-tritonal Dubstep scale by adding 'oink'.

I invented the "Backward Masking Scale":

CBAGFEDC

It's especially great for sodnassilg*

* rev. for glissando

So I take it by your decision to insult me that you can't explain what you're talking about using normal musical terms? And that you can't answer my question as to whether I have understood your "new scale system"?

How could someone "pass on the fun" if they can't understand "the fun"?

Riddle me this: the rest of the posters in this thread have been making fun of you. I asked a serious question, and yet you chose to insult me. So who's really the one "making crap up"?

lol

If what I typed is "confusing nonsense" to you then it's clear you lack a basic understanding of music fundamentals!

By your encouraging lol I would say your black, pretending to be white, pretending that your black because the rabbit in the hat bit you.

Ok I get it.

The OP is one of the types who has to have "art" or "whimsy" in everything they do, including how they speak or write to people, even if what they say ends up having no meaning (i.e. no real communication).

Thus there's "no magic" in someone talking about musical concepts using established terminology.

Maybe if I talked about "fizgigs" instead of "diatonic scales" then there would be a more amicable discussion?

New Scale System! Two Tone!
