The first note of the upper jins is the dominant note in the maqam. Beginning note is the tonic, note before tonic is leading tone. Leading tone means the note you play before the first note of the scale, lying below it in pitch.

· Green marking like this: 10 shows a note that is flat by ¼ and can be interpreted as you like.

· Blue marking like this: 110011 shows the existence of a Hijaz tetrachord, where the 2^nd and 3^rd notes are attracted.

· Yellow marking like this: 01 shows the presence of an alternate possibility for use of that note in Ascending and Desending variations.

Nawahand C (Buselik)	Nahawand-Hijaz Asc. 1011010110011	Harm. Minor	C Nawahand Eb Ajam G Hijaz	Two versions are generaly alternated up and down, but not necessarily. The secondary Ajam trichord on the 3rd note is often used when modulation. Called Sultani Yakah in G. Called Buselik in Turkish Sytem and is in G. A Turkish Nikriz Pentachord can also be used in the descending part of the scale, starting on the 7^th note (Bb). Asc.-Desc. Sayir. Called Sehnaz when it has only Desc. Sayir.
	Nahawand-Kurd Desc. 1011010110101	Natural Minor	C Nawahand Eb Ajam G Kurd
Sultani Yegah D	Turkish System, two octave makam. This is essentially an ascending Buselik scale on D (Yegah). If the scale is extended to two octaves a Buselik Pentachord and a Kurdi tetrachord are used, which gives a descending. Buselik scale. Descending Sayir.
Turkish Nihavend	This is like the Descending Buselik scale, in G. If you play the second octave above you play a Buselik Pentachord again, but below you play a Hicaz Tetrachord.
Farahfaza G	1011010110101	Natural Minor	G Nawahand Bb Ajam D Kurd	Same intervals as Nawahand-Kurd, but different melodic development making much use of Ajam trichord.
Nahawand-Murassah C (Sunbulah)	1011011001101	Desc. Houseini (Nikopolpoulos Kartsigyar)	C Nawahand F Hijaz	Differs from normal Nawahand as starting point of the Hijaz tetrachord (which is also the dominant) is a different note.
Ushaq-Masri D	1011010101101	Dorian-Like	D Busalik G Ajam A Bayati	2^nd Bayati note, 6^th scale (B)note is flat by ¼. In the Busalik tetrachord, the tuning of the third note (F) is lower than the similar Nahawand tetrachord. The difference in tuning is about 1/9th of a tone (called koma in Turkish msuic).

D Hijaz G Rast B Sikah

Two versions are generaly alternated up and down, but not necessarily. 6^th (B)note is flat by ¼ in Hijaz Rast. The Sikah trichord on the 6th note (in the first form) and the Ajam trichord on the 6th note (in the second form) are seconday ajnas, often used in modulation. A very important peculiarity of the Hijaz tetrachord is a microtonal variation from the Western even-tempered scale, where the 2nd note (E) is tuned slightly higher, and the 3rd note (F#) is tuned slightly lower, so as to narrow down the 1 1/2 tone interval. In Turkish System, If the scale is extended beyond the octave, you use Buselik above and Rast below. Asc.-Desc. Sayir. Called Humayun if you use only ascending form up and down. A.k.a. Usbaein in Tunis and Libya, Zedan in Algeria and Alhijaz al-Kabeer in Morocco.
