Sebalius II
Ok, In my music class we have to compose songs. I, being a huge Chinese music fan, want to compose the song in a pentatonic scale. Im not sure if te computer composition program Sebalius is common in schools around the contry, but do any of you know how to fix it so the scales are pentatonic?

Re: Sebalius II
Um... just don't use notes that aren't in the pentatonic scale you choose.

Re: Sebalius II
Scott is right. If you want it to stay within the pentatonic scale, then just don't use notes that arent in it. If you don't know the pentatonic scale, I suggest you google it. There are tons of websites about scales and such.

It's Sibelius by the way. o-o And yes, stay within the pentatonic scale and use the harmonic minor. Also, keep the fifth of the scale out. That should make it should Asian. It's kinda like playing all black keys on a piano.

Just use the intervals listed on this site. Root - 2 - 3 - 5 - 6 There are no settings in Sibelius to do this, you just center the music around those notes.
