What happens when I think about how the note C functions within Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian and Locrian.
There are 49 functions of the note C when thinking about Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Locrian.
3+2 alone tell you that the note C is
3rd of Phrygian. (you add 1 to the 2)
It adds up to 5 also known as Mixolydian
Apply Mix to C D E F G A B
C D E F G A Bb
and you get
the key of F
F G A Bb C D E F (when you play mix starting on C most people are just playing the key of F as we all know)
So the note C
Is
3rd of A Phrygian
It pretty much tells you what every fuction a note is within the major and it's modes quickly.
Another example
5+1
5th of Dorian
It adds up to 6 also known as Aeolian
Apply Aeo to C D E F G A B
C D Eb F G Ab Bb
and you get
the key of Eb
Eb F G Ab Bb C D
So the note C
Is
5th of F Dorian
