C
Harmonic Minor starting on D = D, Eb, F, G, Ab, B, C, D, Eb, F, G, Ab, B, C, D
D Lydian #6 scale numbers = 1, b2, b3, 4, b5, #6, b7, 8, b9, b10, 11, b12, #13, b14, 15
Notice
that b2/b9, b3/b10 b5/b10 #6/#13 b7/b14 are the same notes.
Get
use to them being referred to both ways. This one number
system applies to all keys!
Now
lets take every other note in a group of three, four, five, six, and seven
notes.
3
notes = D, F, Ab = D diminished (Do)
4
notes = D, F, Ab, C = D minor seventh flat five (Dm7b5)
5
notes = D, F, Ab, C, Eb = D minor seventh flat five flat nine (Dm7b5/b9)
6
notes = D, F, Ab, C, Eb, G = D minor seventh flat five/flat nine/eleven (Dm7b5/b9/11)
7
notes = D, F, Ab, C, Eb, G, B = D minor seventh flat five/flat nine/eleventh/sharp thirteenth (Dm7b5/b9/11/#13)

chords from D Locrian #6 scale:
D dim7 = D, F, Ab, B
Do/b9 = D, F, Ab, Eb
Do/11 = D, F, Ab, G
Do/b9/11 = D, F, Ab, Eb, G
Do/b9/11/#13 = D, F, Ab, Eb, G, B
Dm7b5/11 = D, F, Ab, C, G
Dm7b5/#13 = D, F, Ab, C, B
Dm7b5/b9/#13 = D, F, Ab, C, Eb, B,
Dm7b5/11/#13 = D, F, Ab, C, G, B
Do/#6 = D, F, Ab, B
Do/#6/b9 = D, F, Ab, B, Eb
Do/#6/11 = D, F, Ab, B, G
Do/#6/b9/11 = D, F, Ab, B, Eb, G
Dont
be afraid to work out these chords there are some incredible sound possibilities
that normally you would never discover without putting in the time and effort.
So
here is your assignment that you will do with all keys using the Locrian #6 Mode.
Locrian #6 chord progression key of C harmonic minor:
Original
progression - Do //// Cm //// Fm //// G //// (io, vii, iii, IV)
Now
with sub chords - Do/#6 //// Cm/9 //// Fm7/11 //// G7/b9 ////
(io#6,vii/9, iii7/11, IV7/b9)
You
can use any of the 4 note chords to replace the 3 note chords.
You
can use any of the D Locrian #6 chords in this lesson to sub for the i of the D Locrian #6 Scale.
I
will expand on this in greater detail later but for now go back to all the
Locrian #6 chord progressions previously given (Harmonic Minor Modes - Locrian #6 - Mode 2) and sub the 4 note chords for the 3 note chords and sub
the io chord with the new io chords from this lesson.
You
can also sub any of the chords already covered, example F minor becomes F minor seventh add sharp eleven.
Also
take these chord formulas and a note name chart and start to create these
chords in all possible octaves and positions. When creating chords on the
guitar or bass the root, third, fifth or seventh are often omitted because of just
having four or six strings.
You
can use all notes when multi-tracking.
