Musical note commonly), a double sharp sign on a key signature with a single sharp indicates only a double sharp, not a triple sharp. Assuming enharmonicity, many accidentals will create equivalences between pitches that are written differently. For instance, raising the note B to B is equal to the note C. Assuming all such equivalences, the complete chromatic scale adds five additional pitch classes to the original seven lettered notes for a total of 12 (the 13th note completing the octave), each separated by a half-step. Notes that belong to the diatonic scale relevant in the context are sometimes called "diatonic notes";
Synthetic scale By adding a G to the scale, one would end up with the LydianVII, the fourth degree of the Melodic Minor scale. The pitches of synthetic scales may duplicate pre-existing scales, though their derivation is different and their use is often quite different. Synthetic scale In music, a synthetic scale is a scale that derives from a traditional diatonic major scale by altering of one degree by a semitone in either direction. Composer Ferruccio Busoni originally explored these scales in his "A New Esthetic of Music" and their number and variety were later clarified by J. Murray Barbour, who also
