Feature 2: Identification of Compact Versions

The tool enables you to find compact versions like pentatonics, which are useful for simplifying a complex melody or subtly modulating between different keys.

Feature 3: Comparative Visualization

Visually compare the intervals and notes of each related scale against your original scale, helping you understand harmonic differences and similarities.

Feature 4: Comparative Audition

Listen to each related scale to fully grasp the sound nuances and determine which one fits best into your current composition.

Feature 5: Proximity Score

Each related scale is assessed with a proximity score, allowing you to choose the most relevant ones for your musical project.
