D Dorian Bebop — Paraphonic Synth
The D Dorian Bebop lit key by key — roots pinned, degrees named, audio ready.
D Dorian Bebop carries 8 notes per octave (bebop family), drawn here straight onto the Paraphonic Synth's keys with every root pinned — no tablature in between, the keyboard is the map.
Dorian with a chromatic passing tone slipped between the b3 and the 4 — eight notes, so chord tones keep landing on the strong beats in a run of eighth notes. Cool, flowing, and swinging.
Heard in: Bebop and straight-ahead jazz lines over minor seventh chords — Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and the Barry Harris approach.
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.
