Scale and mode names with formulas

Every scale and mode with its formula, semitones and the other names it is known by.

Every scale and mode in Fretly, with the other names it goes by. The Scales search accepts every name on this page, the formula (type 1 2 b3 4 5 6 b7) and the mode names.

How to read a formula. Degrees counted from the root against the major scale: b3 is a lowered third, #4 a raised fourth, bb7 a doubly lowered seventh. The semitone list gives the same scale as half steps from the root (0 = root).

A mode is a scale started from another degree of its parent: Dorian is the major scale from its 2nd note. Modes are listed under their parent with the degree they start on.
