[edit] Transposing by an interval
What is the correct term for 'transposing by an interval'? - for example, C4-E4-G4 can be transposed up a major traid yielding E-G#-B, but it could also be transposed up a diminished fourth yielding Fb-Ab-Cb. It's not really chromatic (as the name of the notes are relevant), but it's not really scalar either, since the difference in pitch is constant and not relative to some scale.
