Lydian
OK. Now let's have a look at the fourth mode which is Lydian. So the first one is ion which is starting on the major scale starting on the first note, Dorian starting starting on the second note frig in third Lydian fourth. So if we say F Lydian, we just count back four notes and then we know this is the mode for this major scale. So F Lydian would be all the notes of C major. So an easy way to work this out if we don't want to count back is we just sharpen the four for a major scale. So F major, for example, if you do tone tone, semitone, tone, tone tone semitone, we'll have a B flat or an A sharp. So all we have to do is sharpen this to A B and this will make a lid scale. You can play the major scale and start on the fourth. Now, of course, that's the easiest way of doing it or you can just sharpen the fourth. So let's have a look in Ableton live. All we have to do is just sharpen the fourth note and this will give us Lydian's scale So if we have a F major scale, we have this B flat ...
or a sharp. So if you're Sharpe in the fourth, we'll have this B and now just listen to this semi to movement between B and C, just gives a different flavor to your music. And yeah, that is Lydian.
