Characteristics

  • Hexatonality matrix: There are two common and two exceptional interval distributions within the octave of hexatonalities in the catalogue. The two common distributions are: 1) one Reach step, four whole steps, and one single half step (or semitone); and 2) two Reach steps, two whole steps, and two half steps. The two exceptional interval distributions include: 1) three Reach steps, no whole step, and three half steps; and 2) one augmented Reach step (spanning four half steps), three whole steps, and two half steps.
  • HexaCorMix: The name indicates that this is a Core and hexatonality with the top being DorMixolydian. As Core tonality it is cross-anchored and includes all four corners of the sound temple.
  • Step pattern: Ascending from the fundamental (tonic or Do), two consecutive Reach steps lead to a half step. Then comes a whole and another half step. Finally a whole step leads up to the octave.
  • Scale intervals: Minor third, tritone, quint, major sixth, and minor seventh.
  • Tetrachords: The lower tetrachord is PentaBlue and upper is DorMixolydian.
  • Harmonic axes: There are two axes, which are vertical and horizontal, N-S and E-W.
  • Primary harmonic anchors: All four primary anchors are present with their heads. In addition, the fundamental or North anchor and the East anchor, besides their head, each also have their right leg.
  • Secondary harmonic anchors: There are no secondary anchors.
  • All four corners of the sound temple. The quint strengthens the fundamental and the minor seventh provides a minor touch. These two bridge to and anchor in a more common sense of harmony.
  • Moduation potential: Hexatonalities can facilitate modulations. HexaCorMix is closely related to other cross-anchored tonalities, especially ReachUpMix, LoReachUpMix, BlueMix, and PentaCor.
