B flat.

I picture it on the piano, one key is one semi-tone or half a tone. Two of these makes one whole tone, or one whole step. One half step down from C would be the note B, another half step would then go to B flat. That is one whole step.

Fourth note of the scale?

Any major scale follows the same pattern. After the first note is a whole step, then another whole step, then a half step, whole step, whole step, whole step, half step; therefore, the fourth note of a scale is two and a half steps away from the first note.


What note is a whole step up from b flat?

The answer is C. Since B is one half step up from B flat, and C is one half step up from B, and two halves make a whole :)


Find a c major scale?

The formula used to construct any major scale is 2 whole steps, 1 half step, 3 whole steps, and 1 half step. To find a C Major Scale, begin on note C and use the formula. One whole step from C leads to D. Another whole step from D leads to E. Then, move up one half step to F. One whole step from F is G. From G, move another whole step to A. The last whole step leads to B. Take one last half step to C. The notes of the C Major Scale in order are C, D, E, F, G, A, B, C.


What is the scale for major?

The scale goes like this: Do, Re, Mi, Fa, Sol, La, Ti, Do Starting from C, play 8 white note in a row, C, D, E, F, G, A, B, and C. That is a major scale. It is also known as the Ionian mode. Starting from any note, play 8 notes in a row, first note, whole step, whole step, half step, whole step, whole step, whole step and half step. (For example, starting with E - E, F#, G#, A, B, C#, D#, E. If you are looking at the key signature, in the case of sharps, the major key is one half step above the last sharp and, in the cast of flats, the major key is five half steps below the last flat.


How do you properly tune a guitar down a whole step?

To properly tune a guitar down a whole step, you need to adjust each string's pitch to be two frets lower than standard tuning. Use a tuner to ensure each string is tuned to the correct note: D-G-C-F-A-D.


One whole step and one half step?

If you are asking about the interval it is a minor third (or an augmented second...) In a Chromatic scale starting on C the tones are: C C#(or Db) D D#(orEb) so the whole step (two semitones) would take you from C to D, and then the half step would get you to D#(or Eb... they are enharmonic equivalents, which means that it's the same pitch with two different names)


What note is a half step above C?

C#/Db is a half step above C.


What is the interval of a scale?

An interval is the distance between two pitches. These intervals are measured in half-steps and whole steps. For example, a half-step is like C to Db. A whole step would be C to D. A major scale is made up of these steps as so: C MAJOR Whole step, Whole step, Half step, Whole step, Whole step, Whole step, Half step. C to D, D to E, E to F, F to G, G to A, A to B, B to C WWHWWWH You may have noticed that from E to F and from B to C it was a half step just as if it were from C to Db. This is because these pitches are simply a half step away from each other.


What sharps or flats does the F major scale have?

There are 3. The scale notes are: A B C# D E F# G# and then back to A so the 3 sharps are C#, F# and G#. All major scales are a pattern of whole steps and half steps so if you know this pattern then even if you are not a musician you can play every major scale on a piano. Just start with the note that begins the scale, in this case 'A'. The pattern is 2 whole steps, then a half step, then 3 whole steps, and another half step back to the beginning note (an octave higher). On a piano, the whole steps (no matter what note you start from) are 2 keys apart. From A to B there is a black note in between, this is a whole step. From B to C is only a half step (there is no black note in between) so you have to jump to C# (the black note to the right of C), then we come to the first half step, from C# to D (the white note immediately to the right)... and so on.


What is the difference between a sharp and a flat on a piano?

A sharp raises a note by half a step, while a flat lowers a note by half a step on the piano. For example, if a note is played as C♯, it is one half step higher than C; if played as C♭, it is one half step lower than C.


What is a whole step above a?

C Natural is a whole step above B flat. If you look at a piano, a half step above B Flat is B Natural, and one more half step above that is C Natural. So it's a whole step from B Flat to C Natural.


What is a whole step above b?

C Natural is a whole step above B flat. If you look at a piano, a half step above B Flat is B Natural, and one more half step above that is C Natural. So it's a whole step from B Flat to C Natural.
