    This is really interesting. In my head, I see the altered scale as a mixolydian scale with everything flatted except the root, third, and dom seventh. And, more than practicing the scale itself, I spend time playing little phrases that come from the scale, still seeing them as variations on a mixolydian, and listen to how they resolve to the tonic. I find those little phrases in context are more memorable and singable than the scale per se, which seems to help my improvising be more melodic.

    I love the harmonic minor and all of its modes. It is like a diminished (half whole) scale meets an augmented (whole tone ) scale. If you play the first four tones half whole and then the next three are whole tone, you've got it. So it is the half half-whole, half whole tone scale. At any rate, i want to learn more about it and just ordered this book. Amazon says it will be here tomorrow.

    Great lesson here! Unfortunately I'm really lazy 😊and for this reason on altered dominant chords I play almost all the time major arpeggios half step from the root or 3 tones from the root of the dominant chord. Somebody say that this is a silly shortcut but it works very good. This is "a trick" that I've learned in an old Les Wise book. Anyway the Mike Stern book is wonderful and I will purchase it ASAP. Another very good books on this subject are MELODIC MINOR REVEALED and HARMONIC MINOR REVEALED by the great Don Mock. Thanks again foy this great video.

    I agree, proper notation is really important. It's not a picky point, when you're looking at minor trying to read it, a weird accidental throws you off. I was thinking of some way to work around this when I get it, maybe re-do the problematic exercises in Finale.

    Thanks for the patreon etude pdf and video. I've had this same book for some time but haven't had a chance to delve into it. That superego you're using sounds interesting. You mentioned it is used for sustain but when I looked it up, it says it has synth capability. I checked some other demos and I haven't heard any of the basic demos make it sound as good as you're getting it to sound. Have you done any review videos on it?

    • @Mikkokosmos
      @Mikkokosmos  ปีที่แล้ว

      I only really use it for sustain I haven't found any other practical use for it (yet)

    Many thanks. I always learn something.

      @@Mikkokosmos (little spoiler) It's just how he categorized the altered scales into type I (b9), II (b9,#5) and III (b9,#9,#5) which include chord forms, arpeggios and scale shapes. I guess those sounds are distinct enough for him to do it.

    I think one of the biggest discerning factors between those who learn efficiently and those who just wander around is, ... do you have a gig. When you have a gig, when there's a believable concrete purpose and goal, things sort of arrange themselves in a priority order, and you can focus efficiently. A lot of "jazz greats" had a gig right from a young age, they played shows in a real band, or in church or whatever, it was real. :)
