- There are three types of minor scales - Natural minor, Harmonic minor and Melodic minor.
- Harmonic minor - Raised 7th
- Melodic minor - Raised 6th and 7th
- In the melodic minor, you only raise the 6th and 7th when going up. You use the natural key when going down.
- There are 7 modes in total. The major and minor are just two of the modes that are the most common.
- There seven modes - Ionian(Major), Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Alolian(minor), Locrian.
- A geometry represents a shape. Material represents the texture. You apply a texture to a geometry to create a mesh.
- A geometry just defines the mathematical rules of a shape and hence can be reused.
- A triangle is the smallest building block in the threejs and probably all other 3d modeling tools as well.
