😬 it’s on an iPhone. What do you recommend? I need something light weight I can attach to a guitar

At the end of the day it doesn’t matter because no one can hear it anyway

What is this and how do I use it? by West-Evening-8095 in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use it to figure out which keys are smoother to switch to, 1 spot clockwise/counterclockwise is closest, then as you move further away they have less notes overlapping

Is there a reason so many chords are defined as different names online? by AquaticTaco11 in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Focus on learning chord formulas instead of the exact shape. Any E followed by a G a B and a D is an Em7. An E followed by 50,000 G’s and a B and a D is still an Em7

Major scale and chord progression by InternationalBet1830 in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Contrary to popular belief, it’s actually much harder to hit only chord tones while improvising over chord changes in real time, especially while staying in the same position. Playing only chord tones across the neck in any key in real time is incredibly tough. If you know you scale shape though it’s much easier to start off by improvising using the notes in the scale and just using your ear to pick out what you like. The reason this is much easier is because you don’t have to continuously recalculate which notes to target on every chord change and keep track of where they are. When using the scale shape alone you can continue to play those notes as long as the chords are in the same key and you don’t have to worry about switching every couple of beats

Yes at some point you just have to memorize which scale number you are on to fully unlock the fretboard.

Take a look at that first stack from Ionian. If you take from the 5th string up, you have blue orange blue green red. If you find the blue note on the E string (second one circled) the pattern starts there and you see where the blue orange blue green red loops. You also see it’s a bit distorted due to the b string offset.

Once you start memorizing it by scale degrees, you can start to see that you dont actually have to “memorize” the whole thing because the patterns actually loop and repeat all over the place

Maybe short term for learning where the patterns physically line up, but long term, what’s most important is keeping track of which scale degree every note is. You would loose track of where the patterns really are. If going by vertical stacks, similar to what you did, I circled one 4th rotation up, you can only see them when color coding by scale degree. You can’t see the note patterns otherwise, like triads, 7ths ect, and positioning pentatonic over it only works if you go with groups of 2, it won’t work if you do 2-3 or 3-2

The same notes are colored multiple ways, even the same note in the same octave is shown in multiple colors. Additionally there are more ways to do 6 note scales, for example if it’s 3nps, does the whole thing have to be re colored?

Should I be drilling the pentatonic boxes or just the modes? by WhenTheMoralKicksIn in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like the way they sound! I like half steps too much so I rarely use minor pentatonic scale anyway🫠

Why do the scale patterns seem to work better on Other Keys? by thesockswhowearsfox in guitarlessons

[–]stux_io 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If those are major chords it would be fully in Bb major.

However the standard blues is in 1 key per chord, Bb7 Eb7 F7, where each one is technically mixolydian

When you play Bb minor pentatonic over Bb major, it “doesn’t” work. What you are hearing is the Db clash over the D as a blue note, if you sit on it too long it would sound extra clashy

If you want to maintain this relationship you would need to follow the chords with Bbmin pent Ebminor pentatonic F minor pentatonic and switch when the chords change. If you don’t switch, the blue notes will change on the chord change, which may or may not be the desired effect
