As a singer a great way to use this incredible resource is to speed it up so it lasts 30mins and just play it in the car whilst driving and simply vocalise to it and see where your voice wants to go that day. If you combine it with a song like Reet Petite by Jackie Wilson then your working all the basics such as support, trills, open spaces and resonance plus pitch and crafting harmonies. It's all you need really.!!

@@balthasarte5649 Yes. If you want to get real involved in the math, each half step interval's frequency increases by a factor of 2 to the one twelfth or 2^(1/12). This means every time you go up 12 half steps, the frequency has doubled. 2^(12/12) = 2^1 = 2 I almost continued with the frequency math, but I'll spare you. It's interesting stuff if you like both music and math though. Enjoy!

Hello. When you have a single note drone, you can play everything that has this note. The most common way to use those drones is the following one. Over the C drone, you can play: All the C scales/modes you know, all the C arpeggios/chords, all the degrees of any C scale. They all work over the drone. And you can do the same all over the other drones. :)
