I wonder how many people realize how much work you put into all your videos - not only the in-depth content but all the graphics and animations that are so professional crafted. Best guitar tutorials on the web imo.
Hi Devon. Thanks for mentioning this. It's true that this is an an enormous amount of work...but I'll do it for the love of the guitar (and a small fee from youtube adds :) )
As others have said, your videos are top-notch. You break things down very clearly, provide plenty of musical examples, and clear visuals which it easy to follow along.
Wow from NZ, first time I've seen your posts, very cool. Your careful and thoughtful breakdown of this stuff is something else and will take me a while to get my head 'round. We're so lucky to have people like yourself, humble and generous in your capacity to share your wisdom and skill with us. Best regards, Bart.
Rob you are an amazing gift of light to this world! I just subscribed a few days ago. Your content is top tier on the whole internet! Thank you for your music educational gifts brother!
Great video, Rob. I'm going to learn this and put it in one of my background instrumental videos. I'll try share it with you when it's done. For now, just learning.
thank you for the lesson. I understood about 90% of the lesson so I will study it hard to grasp it. I am still learning some of this jazz stuff so its new to me,
Probably my favorite video to date!! There's a lot in there to digest. Question: Can one use the tritone substitution of the secondary dominate (example: Dominate V = E7, so secondary dominate = B7 but replace B7 with its tritone substitution = F7. Progression: A minor, F7, E7; where F7 is the tritone substitution for B7 which is the secondary dominate of E7. [Sorry if this is confusing]
make a video on the tritone substitutions available for tritones found in fully extended Major and Minor chords….such as D Dorian minor 13 (has F + B) and E phrygian minor 11 b13 b9 (has F + B) and A Aeolian minor 11 b13 (has F + B)…..F Lydian had Major 13 #11 (F + B) obviously G 7 mixolydian and B diminished have a tritone of F + B while C Ionian Maj 13 has a F + B tritone in it’s harmonic structure
So is it safe to say that a tritone chord is commonly a seventh chord half step ahead from the root. The application is to play the tritone first then slide down to your root. ( C#7 down to C where c# is the tritone) as far the video runs it really shows this easy hack is maybe true. Adding extensions to your tritone is inevitable. Memorize your Major scale first then use the major scale of the tritone chord when tritone chord is played
Rob, again a great video. Since i found your channel i have so much to work on. Also i have question to the sound: is it just me or can somebody also hear the high pitch background noise when you play the guitar? That was really distracting, but it could just be me - I'm a little sensitive to high frequencies. (Yes, i also play bass guitar 😉)
Great to hear that the videos work for you!. I never heard this problem from others, but if you are sensitive it could be annoying indeed. Maybe I forgot to cut the 20+KHz spectrum in this video.
So, in your progression: Abm7 Db7 Cmaj7, Abm7 acts: 1. Kinda Like an Aug6 chord (subV of subV) ?? 2. Kinda like the tonicizer for subV ?? Thnx brother ❤
I use a Axe FXII and BIAS FX2 for my sound. So I use no real amps, only virtual. I do use some EQ and compression in the mix (fabfilter) per instrument and on the mix bus too. After that the whole thing goes through Adobe Audition for the final (light) mastering. So it's not only the effect, but all the things together that make up the sound.
Uploading is not just making your videos up in the air you got to make it sure that you have enough speed to broadcast it, because if you upload it slow then the result is a much slower viewing . Which as a matter of fact made the viewers angry.
