Understanding Asymmetrical Distortion With Half-Sines
Newsletter: https://foxmusicproduction.com/newsletter/ #shorts Dominant chords are naturally unstable due to their tritone interval. This tritone wants to resolve either inward or outward to become part of the tonic chord. #musictheory #chords #harmony #guitar ------ Gear Used In This Video: ►Jackson Dinky: https://foxmusicproduction.com/Jackson-Dinky ------ More From Me: ►Blog: https://foxmusicproduction.com ►Courses & Ebooks: https://courses.foxmusicproduction.com ►Music: https://linktr.ee/arthurfox ►Instagram: https://instagram.com/arthurfoxmusic ►X: https://x.com/arthurfoxmusic ►My Gear: https://foxmusicproduction.com/recommendations/#my-gear
Why Do Dominant Chords Want To Resolve A Fifth Down?
Newsletter: https://foxmusicproduction.com/newsletter/ #shorts Symmetrical scales, and the chords that make them up, divide an octave into a set number of equal parts. Since we have 12 notes in an octave, this means we can divide it into 2, 3, 4, 6 or 12 equal parts. #musictheory #scales #intervals #chords #symmetry #guitar ------ Gear Used In This Video: ►Jackson Dinky: https://foxmusicproduction.com/Jackson-Dinky ------ More From Me: ►Blog: https://foxmusicproduction.com ►Courses & Ebooks: https://courses.foxmusicproduction.com ►Music: https://linktr.ee/arthurfox ►Instagram: https://instagram.com/arthurfoxmusic ►X: https://x.com/arthurfoxmusic ►My Gear: https://foxmusicproduction.com/recommendations/#my-gear
Symmetrical Scales & Chords
Newsletter: https://foxmusicproduction.com/newsletter/ #shorts If we take the major scale and harmonize it by stacking thirds based on each scale degree, we get our diatonic chords or the chords that make up a given key. #musictheory #chords #keys #intervals #harmony #arturia ------ Gear Used In This Video: ►Arturia KeyLab49 Essential: https://foxmusicproduction.com/Arturia-KeyLab-49 ------ More From Me: ►Blog: https://foxmusicproduction.com ►Courses & Ebooks: https://courses.foxmusicproduction.com ►Music: https://linktr.ee/arthurfox ►Instagram: https://instagram.com/arthurfoxmusic ►X: https://x.com/arthurfoxmusic ►My Gear: https://foxmusicproduction.com/recommendations/#my-gear
Diatonic Chords (Chords Of Major Keys)
Newsletter: https://foxmusicproduction.com/newsletter/ #shorts Most chords are built using “tertiary harmony” or stacking third intervals. Beyond the seventh chords, we have our extensions. Here's how they work! #musictheory #chords #intervals #harmony #logicprox #arturia ------ Gear Used In This Video: ►Arturia KeyLab49 Essential: https://foxmusicproduction.com/Arturia-KeyLab-49 ------ More From Me: ►Blog: https://foxmusicproduction.com ►Courses & Ebooks: https://courses.foxmusicproduction.com ►Music: https://linktr.ee/arthurfox ►Instagram: https://instagram.com/arthurfoxmusic ►X: https://x.com/arthurfoxmusic ►My Gear: https://foxmusicproduction.com/recommendations/#my-gear
What Are Chord Extensions?
Newsletter: https://foxmusicproduction.com/newsletter/ #shorts Here’s an interesting thought: A chord is a scale in which all notes are played simultaneously. A scale is a chord in which all notes are played one at a time. #musictheory #chords #scales #intervals #harmony #logicprox #arturia ------ Gear Used In This Video: ►Arturia KeyLab49 Essential: https://foxmusicproduction.com/Arturia-KeyLab-49 ------ More From Me: ►Blog: https://foxmusicproduction.com ►Courses & Ebooks: https://courses.foxmusicproduction.com ►Music: https://linktr.ee/arthurfox ►Instagram: https://instagram.com/arthurfoxmusic ►X: https://x.com/arthurfoxmusic ►My Gear: https://foxmusicproduction.com/recommendations/#my-gear
