The Lydian scale can be described as a major scale with the fourth scale degree raised a semitone, making it an augmented fourth above the tonic; e.g., an F-major scale with a B ♮ rather than B ♭. That is, the Lydian mode has the following formula:

[citation needed] From that, we can list the scales and the triad qualities and the seventh chord qualities in each scale as degrees of Dorian mode and Aeolian dominant scale (Dorian ♯3 ♭6 scale) and Neapolitan major scale (Dorian ♭2 ♯7 scale) and double harmonic scale (Dorian ♭2 ♯3 ♭6 ♯7 scale) and the two types of Dorian ...
The 4th mode of the Neapolitan major, also known as the Lydian Dominant ♭ 6 scale, is an excellent choice for the 9 ♯ 11 ♭ 13 chord. Said mode contains all the alterations plus the ♮ 5. A whole tone scale is often used but that mode tends to be minus the ♮ 5 that the Lydian Minor contains.
Though it is called a major scale, it is typically played over a C13 (♭ 9) (♯ 11) (also F ♯ major over C) dominant chord. [2] This is an enharmonic mode of B Harmonic Minor (A# & C# in B Harmonic Minor, Bb & Db in C Romanian Major), along with D Harmonic Major (C# in G Harmonic Major, Db in C Romanian Major).
It can be described as a whole tone scale extending from G ♭ to E, with F introduced within the diminished third interval from E to G ♭. The scale therefore shares with the Locrian mode the property of having a diminished fifth above the tonic. It can also be the natural minor scale or Aeolian mode with raised third and lowered fifth ...
3); the numerals 6 4 denotes the second inversion (e.g. I 6 4). Inverted seventh chords are similarly denoted by one or two Arabic numerals describing the most characteristic intervals, namely the interval of a second between the 7th and the root: V 7 is the dominant 7th (e.g. G–B–D–F); V 6 5 is its first inversion (B–D–F–G); V 4
The harmonic major scale has its own set of modes, distinct from the harmonic minor, melodic minor, and major modes, depending on which note serves as the tonic.Below are the mode names, their degrees, and the following seventh chords that can be built using each modal tonic or degree of the parent mode as the root: a major seventh chord, a half-diminished seventh chord, a minor seventh chord ...
