Use good 'old-fashioned' music theory.You can also determine the notes by calculating the key signatures for each minor scale. Using a formula: By applying a formula to a specific Major Scale, we can determine the notes of a specific Minor Scale. Simply remember that a Whole Step is equivalent to 2 semitones, and a Half Step is equivalent to 1 semitone. We can use this method in the form of Whole and Half Steps OR in the form of semitones. The Step Method: Like the Step Method for determining the notes in a Major Scale, we can use the same principle in determining notes in the various Minor Scales. There are a number of ways you can determine the notes in any Minor Scale. This includes all major and relative minor keys.ĭifferent Methods for Calculating Minor Scales You can also refer to Table-4 below for the key signatures and notes in any given scale. It is a good idea to view them all as they are a valuable tool for calculating key signatures in any major or minor key. These videos can be found towards the bottom of the page.
I have included all the relevant videos on this page including the 'circle of fifths' video, which is a very useful tool for determining key signatures when building Scales. They are extremely well presented and detailed. There are some excellent videos on the net by 'musictheoryguy'.
