QUOTE (Nimrandir @ Dec 7 2009, 09:02 PM)  Thanks Emir!  I think I got it. So, if I've got a minor chord, and I use borrowed dominant, I play phrygian dominant over the dominant, and then go back to my original scale, or stay in harmonic minor. If the chord is major, I go for mixolydian. So, if I've got progression Am-G-F-G#dim7-Am I can play A aeolian over 1st 3 chords, then switch to E phrygian dominant for dim7 and go back to A aeolian/stay in A harmonic minor?Exactly Or just throw a diminished 7 arpeggio over that (only chord notes) and you simply can't go wrong.

Cool stuff man. I would like to see that program that you've made
This song is in B minor. I guess you want to borrow secondary dominant from B minor harmonic scale which is F#7 or F# phrygian dominant mode. Your chords and the bass line were wrong in that bar - BAR 4. I fixed it the way I though it would be logical. I threw G dim7 and F# in that bar and changed the solo notes. Gdim7 is also related to that scale. That's coming from the last harmonic minor mode and it tends to resolve somewhere which is in this case resolving to F# and that F# is resolving back to B minor. I could have just put an F# without the dim7 and it would still work. Mute the solo and hear the chords only you will understand. Check the fixed bar 4 in this file. I didn't fix the rest but there is the same problem on 1 more bar, I think bar 8. You can just copy my bar 4 in there on all tracks as they were all wrong in that bar. In bar 13 you have C major which resolves to G major on bar 14. So those 2 bars are in the key of G major. IV and the I chord. Bar 15 and 16 are in the key of D major but you are playing A major there (or A sus4) which is V chord or mixolydian. This was supposed to be resolved to D major after this but you got back to B minor in the end which is fine. So you have 3 keys in this piece. Nice work btw

Why are you thinking of B7 dominant when your song is in B minor? F#7 is your secondary dominant in this case. You did all right apart from that one bar which I fixed.
The last A chord is ok. It's a bit unusual resolving to B minor but doesn't always have to be by the rules. You can sometimes make it your way, that's an art A minor wouldn't work there, keep it this way

Well, I'm thinking not of secondary dominant of the root, but secondary dominant of the fourth - of E, so that I can resolve this dominant to the original Em chord. I don't know, maybe there is a different name for this kind of thing? Because from what I know this is hoe it is supposed to work. It's like in wiki, maybe you know it under different name?

In the bar 4 there was no place for B7 as you were resolving to B minor. I am getting confused about your question Also I am sure you can recognise if something just doesn't fit in the progression. Try it and see if it sounds right. Things doesn't always have to be like in theory but the theory helps you arrange things easier.

Haha! Now I'm confused
 You said that you don't have 5- and 7-tuples so I thought you are using some other software.

Hi Emir.
So.. after 2 hours of trying to get the CAGED assignment, I finally played it almost perfectly.. and found out that camera's batteries died halfway through the run. Then, additionally, I've accidentally deleted my sweeping video  . So, I upload audio, and will try to do a new video now. As you can hear, there are some timing problems, especially when changing shapes (transition to second to last shape in 3-string version is the hardest). I also found out that I almost can play 3-string sweeps at 180bpm, and that it feels quite easy, unlike 2-string.

Number of downloads: 123Edit : so here it is : 
emir_mtp2_2wmv.wmv ( 7.96MB )
Number of downloads: 87It's best I can get now, my eyes are already closing (ofcourse, it's 5 am here). But I'll do proper videos tomorrow I promise .Edit 2 : just one more thing : you wrote in the other guys' threads QUOTE Over E7 and C#7 chords play only dom7 arpeggio, not the whole scale. Just 1, b3, 5 , b7. Should there be major 3rd instead?

Hi Emir.
Ok.. I give up! I cannot play the caged assignment cleanly. In every take, one of 3 things happen : 1) I lose where I am in the chart (the further down I go, the more frequently it happens) 2) I get to the last row and become kinda like nervous (something like Maharzan described) 3) I lose concentretion and not think fast enough to form the next shape in my head. I don't remember the chord and position sequence (I've intended not to remember them), so I'm reading from the chart and playing at the same time. Playing and thinking ahead is something I've never done before, and it's very difficult for me. Needless to say, the timing is awfull. Here's an attempt:

Please upload this to youtube and link it to the assignment thread. We need to show those threads to GMC supervisors as they need to see the assignments.edit: if you follow other guys you probably know what's next. I'll post it in your thread as well This post has been edited by Emir Hot: Dec 16 2009, 05:26 AM -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

Read that Nimrandir?
I don't know if maharzan saw your take but the take was perfect. Forget that little slip in the end, that doesn't tell me that you didn't learn it all. -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>
