Notice the 4ths and 7ths - this is where the notes flatten/sharpen when shifting keys up/down a fifth (or down/up a fourth).

== Fifths and equivalents ==
All columns are equivalent pitches. Each cell is a perfect fifth above the cell to its left.

== Rules and Guidelines ==
The 1.____ scale a perfect fifth 2.____ the current scale contains the same notes but the 3.___ in the current scale is 4.____ to become the 5.____ of the new scale.

{| class = "wikitable"
|-
! 1 !! 2 !! 3 !! 4 !! 5
|-
| major || above || P4 || sharped || M7
|-
| minor || above || M6 || sharped || M2
|-
| major || below || M7 || flattened || P4
|-
| minor || below || M2 || flattened || m6
|}

== Equivalent Pitches for Scales Below/Above by Interval ==
Modulating from any major scale to a new major scale that is ___ interval above/below the original key has ___ same pitches and #/b per note:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|Example Key || C || C# || D || D# || E || F || F# || G || G# || A || A# || B
|-
| Interval Above Root || Uni || m2 || M2 || m3 || M3 || P4 || d5 || P5 || m6 || M6 || D7 || M7
|-
| Interval Below Root || Uni || M7 || D7 || M6 || m6 || P5 || d5 || P4 || M3 || m3 || M2 || m2
|-
|Number of Common Pitches || 7 || 2 || 5 || 4 || 3 || 6 || 2 || 6 || 3 || 4 || 5 || 2
|}


Which means the most harmonic key changes are:
{| class = "wikitable"
|-
!Common Notes !! Diatonic Keys !! Non-Diatonic Keys
|-
|6 || P4, P5 ||
|-
|5 || M2 || D7
|-
|4 || M6 || m3
|-
|3 || M3 || m6
|-
|2 || M7 || m2, d5
