there's one thing i noticed about this musicians subforum, there isnt a topic on music theory!! or maybe i just didnt notice.or maybe there isnt any coz of our big ego. i do admit sometimes i feel very shy or scared to ask music theory questions.

so here's a thread just to ask questions on music theory, for all musicians!!  biggrin.gif

i wana ask if anyone has the scanned copy of a lesson by satriani on visualizing different modes on the entire guitar neck. saw it somewhere before but forgot where. isnt the usual box shaped things. he uses a different approach. feel like reading it again.

If the book ure looking is Joe Satriani - Guitar secrets, then heres the link for it http://rapidshare.de/files/12357787/Joe_Sa...ecrets.pdf.html


i got a little problem about harmonization here.. as for major scale the chords are I ii iii IV V vi vii(dim) ... can someone tell me chords for other scale(major & minor pentatonic, etc) ?

semibreve = 4 beats
minims = 2 beats
crochets = 1 beat
quavers = 1/2 beats
semiquavers = 1/4 beats
demiquavers = 1/8 beats

so...the site says tat 2/1 time signature = a semibreve which is 2 beats...how can it be 2 beats when its semibreve..the example he game in the bottom is not supporting his point...im not sure if its a mistake or not but its really confusing me
*
Dont use british name, instead use american name... it make so much easier for u to see the time signiture...

crotchets - quarter note
quavers - eighth note
semiquavers - sixteenth note
demiquavers - thirtysecond note

and so on...

can someone explaing to me what jaco pastorius (in one of his 1000 videos) is talking about when he says practicing in 3rds, 5ths, 6ths, etc....does it mean the intervals of scales?
*
its interval ( i think)
if he say go up in minor 3rd , u go up 3 frets
major 3rd , 4 frets
perfect fourth , 5 frets
perfect fifth, 7 frets

and so on

i might be wrong (and i think i am, haha)

playing all 7 scales on a key up and down the frets what is the different when they all have same notes? anyone can explain?
*
ur question is not very clear, but if ur talkin about modes, then there are 7 modes in every diatonic scale(8 note sale)

This is C major scale(hopefully u know this one)
C..D..E..F..G..A..B..C

if u play the C major scale starting with a diffrent note ull get a diffrent mode

C..D..E..F..G..A..B..C this is C ionian
....D..E..F..G..A..B..C..D this is D dorian
........E..F..G..A..B..C..D..E this is E phrygian
............F..G..A..B..C..D..E..F this is F lydian
................G..A..B..C..D..E..F..G this is G mixolydian
....................A..B..C..D..E..F..G..A this is A aeolian
........................B..C..D..E..F..G..A..B this is B this is B locrian
............................C..D..E..F..G..A..B..C this is C ionian again

U dont have to play all this modes in order... u just have to know tthe unqiue sound of each scale and put emphasis on those notes... every mode has diffrent formula to build it .

hopefully this is clear enough.. if not just askk or u can also download this, "Frank Gambale - Modes, No More Mysteries"
from http://pianosheets.org/details.php?id=4299 This is where i learn my modes happy.gif

i dun get it....regardless of where i start, it's still  A minor pentatonic rite? but the question was changing scales....if i play a C-major scale it is easy to move it around the fretboard. But changing scales is a different thing. eg changing between mixolyd and lyd modes of the C scale at different positions...thats hard....
*
fyi, every scale cover up the whole fretboard... its not that hard to change a scale to another u can even do it without changing ur left hand position..
