```

### Use H instead of B

[](#use-h-instead-of-b)

In some countries note B is written as H, you can easily switch to this format.

```
use JakubTheDeveloper\MusicalScales\MusicalScales;

$musicalScales = MusicalScales::getInstance();

$musicalScales->getNotes('Ionian, Major', 'G');
// Result: ['G', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' ,'E', 'F#']

$musicalScales->useHInsteadOfB();
$musicalScales->getNotes('Ionian, Major', 'G');
// Result: ['G', 'A', 'H', 'C', 'D' ,'E', 'F#']

$musicalScales->useHInsteadOfB(false);
$musicalScales->getNotes('Ionian, Major', 'G');
// Result: ['G', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' ,'E', 'F#']
```

Search method `findScales()` always work for both H and B.
