Well, I first started with some diatonic modes ear training and intervals. Them moved to triad chords, and now working on 7th's. Maybe thats the way to go, I don't know. See what suits you the best man.

Nice topic to start Ben,cheers
I haven't had any "method" so far since I've used ear from my very beginning. Learning tunes from tapes etc. And you pointed it well,it's not something to upgrade over night, I used to figure out small and easy solos for couple of hours,was really tough Singing might help as well,solfeggio is surely one of my favorite classes in music education. -------------------- Youtube

I believe about 60-70% of my improvisation are some lick and patterns I learned before
and then combined "in a walk" while improvising. But yeah,transcribing is the must for ear training, actually it's the same thing as learning tunes by ear except you're not writing it down,only playing. -------------------- Youtube

Do you know of any free slow-down software out there btw? Have no idea really I know that Media Classic Player can slow things down 1 and 2 times but it affects tuning as well, 1 time means octave lower and 2 times even 2 octaves lower -------------------- Youtube

You can slow down audio in cubase or nuendo with time stretch, but not much of a quality when slowed down too much.

I found very useful to tab jazz solos from other instruments (sax, trumpet, etc...)
As said, patterns can be very useful but at the end they are a kind of limitation if you use patterns only. You can find new patterns from other instruments! I didn't know anything about playing a sax but I'm quite sure that some sequences are easier than others to play, like extended intervals and so on. It's a great challenge to tab a fast solo by Coltrane, Parker and many others. One thing that works for me it's to sing a small lick (also in mind) and imagine the fingering. Then you can play what your are thinking and you can hear if you're playing this lick or not. Have no idea really I know that Media Classic Player can slow things down 1 and 2 times but it affects tuning as well, 1 time means octave lower and 2 times even 2 octaves lower I forget... I use sometimes Windows Media Player. It can slow 50% of the original speed without changing the pitch. Very useful when some student asks for a fast solo you didn't know! -------------------- ::: Main Gear ::: Guitars: Washburn N4 Vintage | Washburn N2 | Washburn WI67Pro | Washburn WG-587 | Washburn EA20B Amps: Laney GH50L (head) | Laney GS410 & GS212IE (cabinets) | Rocktron PROGAP Ultra (rack preamp) | Rocktron Velocity 150 (power amp) | Marshall VS230 (combo) FXs: Rocktron Intellifex + custom pedalboard (check my video demo) Other: Shredneck | Intellitouch PT10 tuner Picks: Esseti Picks Software & Recording Gear: Cubase 4 | Overloud TH1 | Mackie Onyx 400F | EZdrummer | Korg Pandora PX4D ------------------------------------------------------- myspace.com/jerryarcidiacono Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |

It does have small sound lost but pitch is the same. It's normal... some data is missing when music is slowed. -------------------- ::: Main Gear ::: Guitars: Washburn N4 Vintage | Washburn N2 | Washburn WI67Pro | Washburn WG-587 | Washburn EA20B Amps: Laney GH50L (head) | Laney GS410 & GS212IE (cabinets) | Rocktron PROGAP Ultra (rack preamp) | Rocktron Velocity 150 (power amp) | Marshall VS230 (combo) FXs: Rocktron Intellifex + custom pedalboard (check my video demo) Other: Shredneck | Intellitouch PT10 tuner Picks: Esseti Picks Software & Recording Gear: Cubase 4 | Overloud TH1 | Mackie Onyx 400F | EZdrummer | Korg Pandora PX4D ------------------------------------------------------- myspace.com/jerryarcidiacono Check out my video lessons and instructor board! |
