Re: Lucky 13 in Diminished Tuning - Just Released
Edvin Wedin has created a tool that can generate Phrase Maps from code. He prefers a version with blow note on top, but it can be flipped to have blow on bottom (as I prefer) instantly. Nice! Here are the two versions for Hijaz scale on Diminished: BLOW NOTE AT BOTTOM Lucky 13 Diminished Tuning - Hi...

Re: Lucky 13 in Diminished Tuning - Just Released
Here is Alfred's way to draw Diminished Tuning Phrase Maps (from the link in the previous post). Instead of scale degrees in numbers, he uses note names, and adds hole numbers. He also has the grid in a different order. These Minor Pentatonic scales are the same as the Blues Pentatonic ones in my ea...

Re: Lucky 13 in Diminished Tuning - Just Released

Re: Balkan tunes and tuning
Thanks Edvin! I saved your flipped version of the Dimi Hijaz Phrase Maps (attached). Great your new tool allows players to select which version they like. Blow note at the bottom feels more logical in musical terms to me, so that's what I'll choose. Though I haven't used them in the past, I'm findin...

Re: Balkan tunes and tuning
