[@aaroncoleman1199]

@@guitarigmusik197 their approaches to teaching modes and CAGED are so different. I really enjoy seeing both options.

[@briangpoulsen5582]

I always say that! To me modes are invoked, not imposed. Learn the chords that 'broadcast' the sound and nature of the mode, and see that the alterations in the chord, are also in the mode. (At first) One more thing, it's all a major scale. Or Lydian if you're into George Russell (or the Over Tone/Lydian Dominant if you want to get nerdy). Mel Minor is maj b3, Harm Min is Maj #5. All derived modes can be understood by the intervallic changes to the major scale. Plus the order of modes change when you approach them this way, instead of scale fingerings like Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian etc.... Chords (Maj7, Maj#11, Dom 7, min 7. Fmaj/A, min b2, min 7b5.....so now the list of modal order is Ionian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Dorian, Aeolian, Phrygian, Locrian...these all have major scale equivalents, interestingly with the exception of the #4 or Lydian which is a 5th above, the rest all move in 4ths). So learn G major all over the neck. (the guitar is a Gmaj/E min based instrument and the beauty of the guitar is ease of transposition) and then learn how intervals affect that one scale and derivative chords. Hope you dig that! I have cleared up so much confusion with many students who had Mode books that looked like phone books. One scale, how intervals work and affect. Done. Then play some music!

[@Platinum_Jim]

[@milkjug7800]

[@m.vonhollen6673]

C Ionian is the major scale. If you play it with #4 (F#) then it’s C Lydian; with b7 (Bb) then it’s C Mixolydian. With b3/b7, it’s Dorian; with b3/b6/b7, Aolian; with b2/b3/b6/b7, it’s Phrygian. - So 3 modes with a major 3rd, 3 modes with a minor 3rd, and now Locrian (b2/b3/b5/b6/b7) works over a Diminished chord (b5!). - Memorize those 7 formulas! Do the same for all the other “parent” scales. That’s how to learn modes, by formulas and all from the same starting note.

[@MroR3n0]

This is great! The more I learn about tonality the more I see that Schoenberg's music is the real rock and roll

[@danhalen1967]

This is more position memorisation again!! Try this instead..The reason you are confused is because everyone just re-tells the same theoretical manifesto when it comes to modes INSTEAD of explaining it in a more pedestrian way so as to afford the performer the necessary insight to actually be useful. This is where I come in. First just forget (for now) the fact that D Dorian is the same notes as C Major. Forget this because you need to start thinking about modes as either major or minor sounds. Also note that I got this concept from the MI ‘Harmony and Theory’ textbook by Keith Wyatt & Carl Schroeder Page 90. From this perspective, you will be able to use them in the real world of playing stuff. In this case Dorian is actually a minor sound. So first you have to know the D minor scale sound and then apply the skills below to see that D Dorian is an altered minor scale that differs from D minor (aeolian) by one note (it has a #6). So isolate and memorize your aeolian minor scales and Ionian major scales and get to a mode via this way INSTEAD of thinking in terms of a position in a major scale. The breakout of the ‘major vs minor modes’ is below. It is easy to get a modal sound using this mindset.. Let’s consider the E Dorian scale for now.. Why do I not join the masses and explain how Dorian is this entity that is built from the 2nd note of the parent major scale and that you should play D major but start from the ‘E’ note? Because for one that is a tired and just idiotic way to think about modes. Secondly what does this actually do to your thought process as a soloist? Well for one, it knocks your thought process out of e minor tonality (which is where you are at sonically) and puts you into having to do a useless conversion process to d major. Why? It’s not d major anymore: it’s e Dorian. You don’t need to do that because more than likely your already using some form of e minor pentatonic and you just want to flavor up your solo with a new sound by adding a sharp 6. (So that’s a sharp 6 in e minor again!! This means ‘the sharp 6 would be C# because In E minor, the 6th is C). This means you have to know your minor scales!! FYI. For Dorian (since it is a ‘minor’ sound) it’s very closely associated to the minor scale of the same tonic (in this case… E). So playing modes is rather easy once you know your major an minor scales all over the neck because you can keep your mind on using the same scale patterns but altering one note in general; much easier than switching your focus from the tonic your in to a whole different scale. FIRST A FEW REQUIREMENTS ARE NECESSARY you have to memorize or have at your disposal a list of all the major and relative minor scales (ex. C major and A minor are the same scale, so do this for all keys) and know all the accidentals. This is very important You have to know what chords are found in the major scale. Just start with triads. So All major scales have the same chord formula: C Major is:: C major triad, D minor triad, E minor triad, F major triad, G major triad, A minor triad, B half diminished triad Next organize the modes in to two camps (major sounds and minor sounds). Now that you have memorized the major and minor scales, you will recognize all the modes as one of these major or minor scales just ordered differently.. this means for ex. D Dorian (note below that I have listed out the easy formulas to get a mode) has the same notes as C Major; just use the chords from C Major. THIS NEXT COMMENT IS THE MOTHERLOAD OF ALL INFORMATION I PRESENT. so in our D Dorian example, if you want to really hear that mode in context, you use the 4 and 5 chord from the major scale the mode is from (4 and 5 are the only places in the major scale that has back to back major triads and these two triads work in a magical way to really lay out the modal sound when you play these two triads over the mode tonic base note .. in this case for D Dorian it is really C Major (F Major and G major are the 4 and 5 chords. When you play a D base note over F major and G major, you get the D Dorian mode sound. Then you can play the D Dorian scale over those chord vamps. (This method of using 4 and 5 triads over the bass note of the mode works for all modes FYI). Best to try using the ‘A’ style chords from the CAGED chord system and play you bass note on the 5th or 6th string. HOW TO FIGURE OUT A MODE. A mode is effectively more of an “alternate major or minor sound”. This really opened the floodgates for me and is just more intuitive. I think you will likey…. ;). I hope it saves you a bunch of time and from a bunch of confusion MODES MADE EASY Basically you have major and minor sounds. Here is the breakout: Major sounds: Ionian Mixolydian Lydian Ionian major scale ←Again just memorize these.. then to get these other two major sounding mode scales use the formula against the major scale you already know. Basically each of the other two major sounding mode scales has one note that is different when compared to the major scale so you can apply your knowledge of the major scales on the fretboard and just change one note to play modal Lydian scale ← ionian scale with a #4 So if you have memorized the Dmajor scale, then to play D Lydian you raise the 4th scale note like this: D major: D E F# G A B C# D lydian: D E F# G# A B C# (So from the points above, you should be able to see that D Lydian is really the A major scale, so the 4 and 5 chords in A Major are D major and E major. Play these chords with a D in the bass to hear D Lydian and of course play D Lydian notes) Mixolydian scale ← ionian scale with flat7 D major: D E F# G A B C# D mixolydian: D E F# G A B C (D mixolydian is really G major and the 4 and 5 chords in G Major are C Major and D major, so play these chords over a D bass note to hear D mixolydian and of course play D mixolydian. Do this kind of analysis for any mode and it should become 2 nature after awhile). Now for minor sounds you have four basic scales: Aeolian Dorian Phrygian Locrian Aeolian / minor scale ← just memorize these as they are just all the major scales starting on the 6th scale degree so if you know the major scales just be able to recite what the 6th degree is and that is your minor scale plus you will have memorized another interval. So from the Dmajor example above, B is the 6th scale degree B aeolian ← also known as the ‘minor scale’ there is one minor scale for each major scale (look at a circle of 5ths diagram) B aeolian: B C# D E F# G A Dorian ← same as aeolian scale with #6 B Dorian: B C# D E F# G# A. ← you may notice that B Dorian and D Lydian have the same notes but just realize this fact: Dionian Edorian F#phrygian Glydian Amixolydian Baeolian C#locrian are all the same scales just starting from a different note in the Dmajor scale. So you should be able to work out that B Dorian and D Lydian are also from a same scale which is the A major scale. This will all make sense in time. The best thing to do right now is to memorize all the major scales and then know which minor scales come from each major scale and memorize them Phrygian ← same as aeolian scale with b2 B Phrygian: B C D E F# G A (So from the points above, you should be able to see that B Phrygian is G major so the 4 and 5 chords in G Major are C major and D major. Play these chords with a B in the bass to hear B Phrygian and of course play B Phrygian notes) Locrian ← same as aeolian scale with b2 and b5 B Locrian: B C D E F G A So assimilate the modes by what is different from what you already know about major and minor scales is the best way as once you can recall the major and minor scales (all 12), you should be able to use the known scale patterns and adjust for the one note difference rather easily (two for locrian). As well by far the most useful chord vamp is the 4 and 5 chord from the major scale that the mode is from. All these other chord/mode explanations I have seen are serious overkill in my opinion and hardly of use in a musical context. Start easy and then as you build your base up of modal knowledge, you can dive back in to some more complex chord/mode possibilities.. or most Likely… NOT. ;) Finally why do the 4 and 5 triads/chord work so well? Thru investigation you should see that the accidentals found on the 4 and 5 chords in any major scale really lay out the notes that make the mode(s) pop out (when you swap in different bass notes). So B Dorian, the note that makes that mode pop is the G#. The 4 chord from A Major is D major (D F# A). The 5 chord is E major (E G# A) so you can see hopefully that basically your implying B Dorian by vamping these two chords (when playing these chords over a B bass note) And this is why you will hear pop or rock songs using the 4 and 5 chords when you run across a modal song or section of a song.

Modes of the harmonic minor are common, for example in Klezmer music, so the “whole step/half step” only rule is not really true. Unless you really don’t have any Klezmer music in the US, in which case that sucks. Also, modes of blues and pentatonic scales are used widely in improvisation, especially on guitar.

[@profsauce.jaaj22]

This channel is really amazing, perfect mix of valuable information directly put into musical context and humour !

[@TimBoykinGuitar]

What he’s teaching is correct, and he explains it well. The modes, that is, the European “church modes,” are an application of a single seven note scale against seven different tonics or tonic cords. You play a C major scale against an F major chord, you *hear* F Lydian mode. It’s not a new “scale.” You’re still in C. It’s about perception of what is audible. I feel somewhat vindicated whenever I see a video of a teacher teaching what I’ve struggled to bring to students. They’ll have flashes where they *hear* the mode, but often they’re resistant to going into that wold of perception.

[@orionvassi]

This could be an entire guitar book. Great video.

[@picksalot1]

When practicing Scales/Modes over multiple octaves, an issue arises that makes hearing the "character" of the Mode problematic. For example: Cdefgabc, Defgabcd, Efgabcde. Notice that each octave switched to the next higher Mode: Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian. To avoid the problem this causes, start each new octave on the Root of the Mode: Cdefgabc, Cdefgabc, etc.

[@AyeBigB]

Great video man! You explained it perfectly.

[@alvinthuo5487]

Hey Marbin. I like how you presented a different approach to the modes by looking at the chords within C major and the CAGED system. Do you think it would help to highlight certain notes when playing modally to clearly grasp the sound? So when playing over F you can emphasize B to get that Lydian sound. Let me know your thoughts, thank you!

[@waynegram8907]

MARBIN, A mode is a scale or groups of notes in a KEY against a tonal center from a certain scale degree. You should do a lesson about Pentatonic Modes like Dorian Pentatonic, Lydian Pentatonic, Phrygian dominant pentatonic, Lydian Dominant Pentatonic and which VAMPS chord changes will work for each mode. This is used in Fusion Blues guitarist which is more useful in rock music.

The problem is people not being able to distinguish between scales and modes. If Dorian or Ionian or Lydian were scales, they would have modes themselves, which would be paradoxical. The fact that they are 'shaped' like the scales you know doesn't mean they are scales. The scale is the 'thing' and the modes are the sounds the 'thing' takes when you hear it. Next time you hear someone talking about 'Mixolydian' or any other mode as a 'scale' run for your life

Everyone teaches Modes "INCORRECTLY", except me!.

[@icarusi]

I just look at the top and bottom of each diatonic mode, and IIRC there are 3 pairs with identical top and bottom 3 intervals, not the same pairs for each end, but if you know them, you have 3 options where you can flip a mode on the fly. It only works if you start on the mode root note ascending or descending. Once you've played 6 notes of a diatonic mode, the octave notes and the 4 halftone notes, you've made the decision on which mode it is (or 5 notes for the modes where a root note is also a semitone note). AFAIK I was probably playing Ionian and Mixolydian and also Aeolian and Dorian interchangeably for years, thinking I was play just major and minor. It was more whatever fit, or sounded right at the time. Those 3 intervals also set the 'flavour' for the mode. Is it major, minor or 7th?

[@josdurkstraful]

That's exactly the same as I teach the modes! NOT. Thinking Ionian > Lydian > Myxolydian in a C major progression is useless, it's all C major, not modes. Your explanation is typical for guitarplayers, it's too visually oriented. Combining Caged with modes is very illogical. Also: there are no "Wrong notes" and they are not old ladys. Bad lesson. Have a nice day. P.s. I find it stunning that so many different guitarteachers on YT have such different views of what modes really are and all think they are the one who is right. Problem is the viewers who will watch the video because they didn'tunderstand modes in the first place will mostly believe anything any teacher tells them (and left even more confused than before). What then is a mode one might ask... It is just a parent scale like C major not just starting on a different scale degree but with that scale degree being the ROOT of the mode. D dorian is only that when D is root, otherwise it's just C major. Same for all other modes. Essentially the place of the two half steps in the set defines the sound of the mode: Major as 1234567 or 123#4567 or 123456b7. Minor as 12b345b6b7 or 12b345#67 or 1b2b34567 or 1b2b34b56b7.
