At 3:20, you use Aeolian b5. I have a sort of silly question. This mode is also described as Locrian natural 2. My silly question is: what is the difference between the locrian and the aeolian viewpoint? I guess in aeolian, you would put some more emphasis on the minor 3 to drive the minor feeling home?
@TheProgSchool Жыл бұрын
I went with Aeolian as that's the much more commonly used mode. Locrian is fairly rare in actually use. But you could definitely go with either.
@tonekilltech9 ай бұрын
It's a reasonable question. Locrian natural 2, Locrian #2, Locrian 2, Aeolian b5, or semi Locrian are all just different ways of referring to the sixth mode of the melodic minor scale in the context of the more familiar modes of the major scale. The naming convention shouldn't change the approach to playing it though.
@SamBrockmann3 ай бұрын
The actual difference is **context**. Just like why a lot of chords have different names, because those chords can have different names in certain contexts.

Good stuff, I love prog nerd shit like this haha. That really does sound like exivious, reminds me of Entrust. Has a similar feel with the lead guitar running over a complex progression. Love exivious.

Which processor,amp and drum software etc should we own to play progressive metal ???? Pls suggest....
@TheProgSchool5 ай бұрын
There are a lot of good options. Any modern processor will work well, Kemper, Axe Fx, Helix etc. or any Neural DSP plugin. For amps, mesa boogie, 5150, Engl, Friedman, almost any good high gain amp will do. For drums I use Getgood drums, they have a lot of options. But superior drummer is great as well. Even stock plugins and amps can get you by in a pinch, no shortage of good gear out there!

@@Kaisiilerite Strats are a great all around guitar, but probably not my first choice for prog. You can't go wrong with an Ernie Ball JP or Majesty. Any sort of super Strat, Ibanez, Jackson etc. would work well. That or something more modern like a Strandberg or Kiesel.

@@TheProgSchool I dig it, always wanted to play this kind of style, and with the help of theory it makes a bit more sense now. I'm still a little new with the counts though, I still get mixed up between tempo/beat/rythm even though it's it's own thing.
