Modal Shift

the Modal Shift object is an addon for my Modal Change object which controls modality. When a bang is sent to the modal_shift object, it finds a related mode by changing just once scale degree from the original mode.


The modal shift object is similar to the modal_shiftlist object, but it is optimized to randomly choose one of the related modes when a bang is sent to its left inlet.

Related modes are defined as the object takes the pitches of the scale and moves each scale degree up or down one at a time to see if a new diatonic mode can be formed. This process will list 42 related modes for any of the major scale modes, 28 related modes for any of the melodic minor scale modes, 21 related modes for any of the harmonic minor scale modes, and 21 related modes for any of the harmonic major scale modes.
