Here's a scale I developed called Octonic Altered. This scale is easy to construct. It is the 1-3-5b7 of a dominant 7th chord combined with all the altered tensions of the dominant 7th chord. b9, #9, #11 and b13. This makes for an eight tone scale. In the key of C it’s the notes of C-Db-Eb-E-F#-G-G#-Bb If you look on the web under Octonic Altered and my name you can find my article.
you didnt develop that. thats from the 1800s. i learned about it then searched for more and found this video where you think you invented it? lmfao you boomers are so egotistical
True it is 2 diminished seventh chords, BUT more importantly, it is the related family of dominant chords with their built in diminished 7th chord found a Major 3rd above the dominant root... so now we have 4 related dominant chords with only the notes of their roots being played PLUS the built in diminished 7th chord found on the Major 3rd of every one of those dominant chords
Romain Bornes I see and understand what you mean. The original comment was talking about for example going by whole tone-semi tone-whole tone instead of the order of semi tone- whole tone- so on. That does not work for this scale since all the note spacing are not equal and are cut up into semitones and wholetones unlike the whole tone scale where it is 6 notes and each one whole tone apart. This comment is a year late and I’m sure you know this by now but I had fun typing this.
Giancarlo Binetti it has the same root chords (two diminished chords) so for all intents and purposes it is almost equivalent, the only reason you may use it is to avoid clashes with upper extensions of more complex chords
When I am asked to write an octatonic scale ascending and descending, will both sides be the same, or do I need to continue the pattern on the way down?
That is the Only Octatonic Scale that there is, but there should be a Regular Octatonic Scale here is an example of a Solfege in the Key of C Major: C D E F G H A B C

Great explanation. The harmonic possibilities are intriguing.
I like starting with a half-step first version. Perfect for djent metal.
gwent?
Awesome. Great informative video, thanks!
How about the other type of octatonic scale? Beginning with the whole step. I would love to know more about the usage of this version.
It is the exact same thing - just starting on a different degree of the scale

I call it the MESHUGGAH scale.
And they thrive on its dissonance. 🔥🔥🔥
Is that a jewish metal band..?

Does anyone know the name of the piece at the end?
Its his improv of the scale.
Is it also some kind of altered scale?
What is the tune at the end?
this channel is pretty great
Thank you!
I heard this play in my head alot in my childhood... Thank you for telling me what this is!
Great video
Briliant video!
i wish my parents sent me to a music school
Oooh, I dig it; it's groovy-weird!
Great 👍
love it1
the stravinsky scale
The Predator scale 🤡
That's the auxiliary dim scale
cool
I love this scale. The predator score used it, I think.
yep, it's alllll over Alan Silvestri's work. heavily used in the Back to the Future score as well.

All this music theory language is hard to understand for me, a newbie. Thanks anyway! Looks like a well thought out video!:)
You’ll get there

Professors are great for teaching.. until they offer a style of their own. Which usually falls flat.
