Re: Brendan's tuning questions/helps
"Dunovska Horo" is pure PowerChromatic, but "Jig Jazz" and "Sweet Bulgarity" are variations on PC.
If you think of PowerChromatic in C, starting on D, the pattern is (blow note to the left, draw at right):
DE FG AB CD | DE FG AB CD | DE FG AB CD |
In "Jig Jazz" I lower the higher doubled Ds down to C, like this:
DE FG AB CD | CE FG AB CD | CE FG AB CD |
In "Sweet Bulgarity" I lower the A down to Ab, like this:
DE FG AbB CD | DE FG AbB CD | DE FG AbB CD |
Slider notes go up a semitone.

Hi Brendan
Me again..
I custom a c normal chrom on a power chrom like you said !
But when I play donoska horo! In the 3rd part you play a big draw bend to rich the E! But there is no draw E on the c chrom!
Is it a power chromatic in the key of D on the song or you modified the C one? Thanks!

Re: Brendan's tuning questions/helps
Sorry, I was just using the C chrom as an illustration of the generic tuning used in "Sweet Bulgarity", relating it to PowerChromatic in C. This could be used for the tune in a different key if you start on the G draw note. Try that 
For the video of "Sweet Bulgarity" I retuned a G chrom and started in a different place in the scale:
GA BbC# DE EF# | GA BbC# DE EF# | GA BbC# DE EF# |
It is still PowerChromatic (in D) with one note altered (B down to Bb), but instead of starting on the EF# notes it starts on GA.
Hope that makes sense
