Synthetic Scales (Pitch Sets)

This process is a wonderful way to break free of conventional scales and create a unique palette which is very useful for composing.

Combine two triads of any denomination separated by any interval apart in order to create a unique combination of notes for a scale. (The example here consists of two major triads separated by a half-step.)
