Creates a wash of sound. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis tuning is F Lydian — the F major scale with a raised fourth. That single altered note, B natural instead of B♭, is what gives the instrument its character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat would be tension in a chord progression becomes a persistent upward lean. It is the reason Lydian shows up so often in film scores under wide landscape shots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe other consequence of a complete scale is roughness, and we mean that as a feature.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlay it as a scale and it is genuinely melodic.
