About this course

Hi, I'm Brad Carlton and welcome to Guitar Lab: Ear Training Vol. 4.

This course will give you a systematic approach for developing your ear and also for knowing where a pitch is located on the fretboard. You'll be presented with principles including intervals, bass notes, and diatonic triads. Each of these topics will apply to a question and answer format where you'll be presented with a pitch or chord, and will then be asked to find it on the sixth string. I'll then give you the correct answer along with any pertinent information about the process involved in finding that pitch or chord.

In the fourth volume of Guitar Lab: Ear Training. I will demonstrate various modes and their respective harmonies. It's your job to guess which ones I'm playing, using only your ear. Ready?

Grab your guitar and let's get started.

What you'll learn

  • Transfer sung intervals to the guitar fretboard
  • Explore upper extensions of mixolydian mode through motif patterns
  • Understand how to target specific scale degrees using intervallic approaches
  • Develop ear-to-hand coordination for modal playing
  • Develop melodic ideas through systematic motif application

Guitar Lab: Ear Training Vol. 4
Hi, I'm Brad Carlton. Welcome to the fourth volume of Guitar Lab: Ear Training. In this chapter of the series, I will demonstrate various modes and their respective harmonies. It's your job to guess which ones I'm playing, using only your ear. Ready? Grab your guitar and let's get started.
Exercise 1a
The Ionian mode adds the 9(2), 11(4), and 13(6) to the maj7 chord formula (1, 3, 5, 7). It's the 1st diatonic mode, and the same as the parent major scale.
Exercise 1b
This is the answer to the previous sonic question.
Exercise 2a
Melodic patterns are a motif which is then played on each successive scale degree. Take a listen to this exercise and try to solve what I'm playing.
Exercise 2b
This is the answer to the previous sonic question.
Exercise 3a
Intervals of thirds are logical frameworks for melodic motifs. Let's take a look at this concept in this question.
Exercise 3b
This is the answer to the previous sonic question.

A complete series

I opted to get the complete ear training series as it did not makes sense to start something and not finish.The courses are the direct and the no nonsense approach that is more to my liking and I have made steady progress.Ear training is thought to be a mundane chore,but it does not have to be ,and this course shows you that.I fully recommend.
