Nice sounding piano. What are you using?

[@PianoGroove]

Logic Pro with Steinway Grand Piano sound - pull the db slider to around -10 to avoid distortion with the higher notes

[@dry509]

PianoGroove Thank you.

Excellent video. Beautiful sounds using diminished scale chords over it. You are using full step half step scale. Does it work on the half step full step scale also? Thank you. ,liked.

Looked for the shortest video. In turn I found the most amount of content.

Excelente explicación. Se agradecería la cortesía de interpretar un poco más lento ... Sobre todo para los que no hablamos la lengua extranjera y necesitamos manejarnos con lo visual, ya que SÍ tenemos todos accesos a You Tube, a pesar de nuestras diferencias idiomáticas. Nuevamente muchas gracias y felicitaciones por el entusiasmo de emprender este tipo de videos.

Can you explain the "every diminish chord has a shadow" part. I dont understand. That sounds really interesting and I want to learn it properly

[@PianoGroove]

When you think of the C Diminished scale, you will naturally think of the Cdim7 chord. The 'shadow' is the other diminished chord (a whole step up) in the scale that is not immediately obvious. And when you combine the Cdim7 chord, with its 'harmonic shadow', that then opens up the full melodic possibilities of the scale where you can access the triads outlined at 2:24 - so instead of just running up a Cdim7 arpeggio - as many musicians do - when you also incorporate the notes from 'shadow' you can achieve more interesting colours and flavours over diminished harmony. Does that help answer your question? Cheers! PianoGroove

It isn't also called the whole half scale as it is. W,H,W,H,W,H,W,H.
