I'm not sure what you mean by this. For instance: "\majorScale c" is essentially: {c d e f g a b c} whereas "\majorScale es" is that transposed to es: {es f g as bes c d es} "\majorScale" itself actually represents a sequence of intervals but it could equally well be represented by the scale on c. Incidentally I am in the middle of a project to sysematically name all seven-note scales, none of whoes modes contain a sequence of either more than two consecutive semitones or more than two consecutive aumented seconds. /Bernard _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
