// MODES, SCALES, KEYS inside Pbinds

// How to write Pbinds in a specific key, for example G minor
// (using \scale and \degree inside Pbind)

(
Pbind(
	\scale, Scale.minor, // natural minor scale
	\degree, Pseq([0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6s, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11]), // s for sharp, b for flats as needed
	\root, 7, // 0 is C, 1 is C#, etc. For G minor, we put the root at 7 (seven semitones above C)
	\dur, 1/2
).play
)

// \degree considers 0 to be the first scale degree.
// If you prefer to think of 1 as the first scale degree (like in "movable do" solfege), simply add -1 to the end of the line.
// The example below is in Eb Major
(
Pbind(
	\scale, Scale.major,
	\degree, Pseq([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]) - 1,
	\root, 3, // Eb Major
	\dur, 1/2
).play
)

// F Mixolydian #4
(
Pbind(
	\scale, Scale.mixolydian,
	\degree, Pseq([1, 2, 3, 4s, 5, 6, 7, 8], 3) - 1,
	\root, 5, // F mixolydian with #4
	\dur, 1/4
).play
)
