Original Wikitext content:

The term **mode** of the modern western understanding of scales is determined by the starting/ending point of a scale based on a given tonal material. 
For example the diatonic material 0 2 4 5 7 9 11 12 14 16 17 ... of [[12edo]] with its 7-tone periodicity (12 equals 0) can be used to build 7 different modes, which are often named as
* Ionian (0...)
* Dorian (2...)
* Phrygian (4...)
* Lydian (5...)
* Mixolydian (7...)
* Aeolian (9...)
* Locrian (11...)
