XXX -> Identify that scale! (Dec. 3 2005 23:26:38)

http://www.all-guitar-chords.com/reverse_scales.php

But theres no name for my favorite scale:
starts on E (6)
goes like 0-1-4 until 4th fret d-string

E Oriental (b) 1,b2,3,4,b5,6,b7 is the closest they find hm...

Nevertheless the site is useful.

I figured out something messing around with Flamenco theory, I don't know if i'ts useful but.
I've noticed that E Gypsy and A Gypsy can be mixed in many ways. That scale you've got there is part E part A Gypsy. I don't know if it matters but You can move from A Gypsy tonal center to a E Gypsy tonal center and it's a cool change. Jesse cook does this very well.

Probably the program has a problem with the scale because the 8th note is not identical with the 1st one. So this scale would have more than 8 notes.

Edgar, there are several other names for the same scale:
(Root) A Byzantine
A Double Harmonic
D Hungarian Gipsy
A Hungary Gipsy Persian
D Hungarian Minor
E Oriental (b)

Dont know how to say it diplomatically... Oriental scales just rule man! [:D]
Ive always founded that minor sounds much more interesting than major, but Oriental scales just take the cake.
Course, major is suitable for happiness, but even then there are better happy scales, like mixolydian...
