    Great lesson Anthony. Oddly enough I have been experimenting with different pentatonics in a key, but I couldn't seem to figure out why a particular one sounded good over others. This lesson is truly helpful. Thank you for making it.

    • @AnthonyMuthurajah
      @AnthonyMuthurajah  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The concern would be shedding them enough to allow your ears to take over in a playing context. All the remembering/recollecting is done in the shed and then FORGOTTEN outside of it. That's how I did it and I would encourage anyone to go about implementing anything in their playing.

    Thank for the great soloing tips... you really sound great. I'm trying to learn a solo on "the chicken" do these pentatonic scales from the 3rd, 7th, and 6th work on dominant chords as well?

    • @AnthonyMuthurajah

    • @chrisbassartist4344
      @chrisbassartist4344 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Anthony Muthurajah I also have a midi keyboard and I use cubase what vst are you using and do you need a sustain pedal to have chords constantly play? Been trying with what I have and couldn’t figure it out..thank you for taking time to answer my questions

    • @AnthonyMuthurajah
      @AnthonyMuthurajah  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Chris Bassartist I use the samplers on logic for my keys. Yes, you need a sustain pedal to sustain the chords else they die quick. Alternatively you can extend them by extending the midi notes. Hope that helps. Cheers
