  1. Another example. http://i.imgur.com/IlOm8.png
    Solve for Z.
    Choose a core note.
    C
    Choose an equation
    4+5
    4th of Z Aeolian = C Dorian
    The formula for Dorian is 1 2 3b 4 5 6 7b
    Apply to C major
    C D Eb F G A Bb
    What scale from the highlighted arrows have two flats?
    The key of Bb major.
    Bb C D Eb F (G) A
    Z = G.
    The 4rd of G Aeolian = C Dorian
