C Whole Tone — Paraphonic Synth

The C Whole Tone lit key by key — roots pinned, degrees named, audio ready.

C Whole Tone carries 6 notes per octave (symmetric family), drawn here straight onto the Paraphonic Synth's keys with every root pinned — no tablature in between, the keyboard is the map.

Weightless and dreamlike — six equal whole steps with no leading tone, so nothing pulls anywhere. Blurry, floating, and faintly unsettling, like a dream sequence.

Heard in: Impressionist piano (Debussy's "Voiles"), Thelonious Monk's runs, dream-sequence film cues, and the augmented and 7#5 chords it fits in jazz.

On the Paraphonic Synth each note of a line restarts the shared envelope, so scalar playing stays articulate even though chords blur — a fact worth hearing on the maps below.
