+We take the Aeolian and the Mixolydian given as default because they can be dechiralized (see below). The adjectives "brightened" and "darkened" are modifications that flatten the default modes by a comma step; these modes have no dechiralized equivalents.
 === Dechiralized modes ===
-By taking the union of the two chiralities for each diatonic mode, we obtain the achiral scale LSCSLMLSLM, where c = L &minus; s. This is a stretched version of the [[blackdye]] scale with the same step ratio (with the L in the "SLS" of blackdye made smaller). There are 8 dechiralized modes that result from changing an occurrence of SL and LS in it to SCS (on the same root as the original chiral modes).
