YOU HAVE CREATED A MASTERPIECE GUITAR LESSON! THANKS!!!
That was hands down nothing short of amazing! The triad pairing concept is so insane! Simple and effective! For the first time I managed to understand everything that was explained! Thank you so much, please don't gove any regards to haters, your content is absolutely exceptional :)
I liked the sneaky Vai reference on your Lydian mode example. Very subtle sir!
By far the best lessons on KZread!
Great lesson, Rob. Very useful. Greetings, Gerrit.

Muy buenas sus lecciones, the best teacher !
I watched some of your other videos and now the KZread algorithm is feeding me so much information regarding modes, but your videos have provided me information that is practical and something that I can immediately incorporate into my playing. Thank you for all that you do. Cheers from California.

This approach of adding a note to pentatonic scales and making it hexatonic and then the full mode may work for people who have played only pentatonic scales and then want to incorporate modal playing. However, it is best to learn modes based on Major scale patterns (like you show in the third approach) and absorb sound intervals and thereby grasp the key characteristics of each mode. Also, on a different note, saying Dm pentatonic over D Doran scale is potentially confusing. Perhaps one could say playing Dm pentatonic over D Dorian chord progression.
In the b -major scale the E and F# is at the wrong place 7.25
Hello.In the video pair triads part, D Dorian example, there is triad D/A, mayor triad shape. I don't understand this shape if are two minor triads. Can you explain me please??. Thanks from Spain

I don't understand why you don't have more subscribers I guess high quality video content isn't for everyone

People in general only wish to get the TAB's plus showed how to play a particular song. Not learn how music can be constructed ... why and what could work in this or that situation. In either way you can reach a certain level. But the one who has some knowledge about what he/she is doing might have an advantage 😉✌️
i hear all modes the same
Another one trying to confuse beginners to look knowledgable. All modern discussion of modes is a sham. In the system of keys they are just variations on the scale pattern, not a separate entity to complicate mental assessment of the desired effect. Made up out of thin air ideas to confuse people. Just like the high priests of the Pythagorean church keeping it a secret that the intervals weren't actually perfect ratios when they discovered it later on. All you beginners, ignore all talk of modes and stick solely to the system of keys.

Everyone can have his/her own opinion of course, but for the viewers of this post the following is important (in my opinion): This is not an explanation of modes for beginners and this lesson is not pointed at beginners. Besides that, modal music is another thing than tonal music. It's a different approach and not a "variation on scale patterns" of the major keys. Functional harmony doesn't apply on modes as it does on typical tonal music. This is commonly accepted by musicians all over the world.
