Today it is precisely 500 years ago that Johannes Ockeghem died.
He lived from c. 1425 to 6 February 1497. Today it is the 16th but 10
days were skipped with the beginning of the Gregorian calendar.
Because of the coincidence with the moment of which I have collected
exactly 500 modes in a list, I will post it for the occasion.
Ockeghem was one of the highest regarded musicians of his time.
One of his famous masses, Missa Cuiusvis Toni, which means something
like 'mass in a mode of choice', is a composition that can be
performed in at least three of the four authentic church modes
(Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian and Mixolydian).

Here's the list. The numbers between square brackets indicate another
starting note than degree 0, which makes a difference in modes of an
unequal scale. In this case degree 0 can also be absent.
The numbers are number of steps of each interval, so in twelve notes
per octave they are semitones, in 24/oct. quartertones, and in
unequal scales they have different sizes.

I have a Yamaha DX-21 keyboard too. You can't retune them.
Get a Yamaha TX-81Z (4-operator rack-mount midi module) or
a DX7-II (6-operator keyboard), or a DX7-II fd (6-operator
keyboard with floppy disk to hold extra timbre patches).
There's also a rack-mount version of the DX7-II, but I
forget its model name. Tunable Yamaha instruments offer
a resolution of 1024 steps per octave.

The DX21's bulk dumps are complicated. Call Yamaha, or
find them on the 'net, to get the "midi specification"
document for any of their instruments.
