Mistake in the minor bebop scale

[salz2411]

There is also the minor bebop scale, which is a dorian scale with an added raised third.

Also known as The bebop Dorian scale. It is derived from the Dorian mode and has a chromatic passing tone between the minor 3rd and the perfect 4th.

In EarMaster, it has a chromatic passing tone between the 7th and the root. There is a mistake, I think.

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.

From what I can see, the one you describe as being a mistake in EarMaster is the dominant bebop scale: C D E F G A Bb B C, which is indeed called Dominant Bebop scale in the program, not minor bebop scale.

The minor bebop scale is as it should in EarMaster: C D Eb E F G A Bb C

Really what is usually called the jazz minor is spelled "1 2 b3 4 5 #5 6 7". The bebop mixo scale or whatever you want to call it can be played over the II but it is not a separate scale. Never ever heard it called the minor bebop scale or whatever.
