A circle diagram (or scale circle) is a diagram that shows the pitches of a periodic scale on a circle.
Conventions
- Unless specified otherwise, a full turn is assumed to represent an octave, such that 1 ¢ corresponds to 0.3°.
- The tonic (and thus the period) of the scale is generally placed at the top.
- Rotating clockwise corresponds to going up in pitch, and vice versa.
