you can be sure when I finish with this my wife WILL DIVORCE ME, my children will hate me, and my dog will have run back to Indiana… (but BRAVO - its just what I was looking for!)
But you'll play the best arpeggios ever! :D
Do you mean the drones or the consequences of your practicing?
@@GregEleftheriouI'm using it to feel the differences between the notes in a key. Lots of out off key humming😂
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.!!
Thank you! Best wishes.
Watch in ×0.5 to double the fun! :D
Wouldn't it change the pitch?
No. In fact all pitches would remain the same as each octave is the unison frequency doubled.
@@Antelope2000 oooooooooohhhh!!!!! Right so as long as it is sped up or slowed down by multiples of 2 the drone will remain in pitch albeit twice/thrice/etc as high/low
@@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!
@@Antelope2000 thanks dude! I'm going to read that two more times and try to get it.
Great idea for a track. Thanks for making it.
This is incredible!! Thank you sir, now practice will be efficient !!! :D
Awesome!! Thank you, this will be fun!😃
OMG .. thank you so much for this valuable resource!!! .. I have been looking for exactly this!!! .. thank you!!!
Thank you for this track Greg.
This is outstanding. Thanks!
This is excellent for really hearing the differences when it comes to modal playing.
Man this is great for practicing my ascending Coltrane diminished pattern in all 12! Thanks!
Thank you so much! I'm practicing frettless bass and this is a godsend.
Hello my fretless brother, I'm doing the same thing lol. How's the fretless treating you these days?
@nathanrogers8460 it's okay! I still don't feel very musical but my intonation is definitely better.
How long have you been at it?
@@JayBrekken about 2 months now. Been playing fretted bass for about 20 years though. It's frustrating to basically start over, but I'm glad for a challenge.
Outstanding Track!
Nice! It keeps my drone practice from getting too sleepy. just worked mode 7 of melodic minor in ascending and descending 6ths all twelve keys
this is one of best videos and techniques I've found for music in a long time. thank you!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this 🙏
Okay wow. This is so great
Thank you Frederic! I'm a big fan of your music!
I was looking for a series of videos for each key and found this.
Its enough time to play each key in every position, 7ths, exotic scales, its endless.
Thank You
Enjoy it, Stephen!
Man this is so helpful!! Thank you
Glad to hear it!
its so hypnotic practice! Love it
Glad you like it!
Perfect for practicing guitar man ...awesome !
Thank you! You can check out the playlist with the drone tracks! ;)
God freaking bless you!
perfect ,,thanks-subbed
thank you. very cool!
Thank you for this. Your drone track has allowed me to improve my ear training while navigating the entire fretboard using major and minor scales in each key.
I'm delighted! Well done! :)
This is a gem and you're amazing for uploading it. Thank you!
Thank you 👏
muchas gracias dope!!
Thanks for this track :D I´m using it to try and sing all intervals within those keys
Lovely exercise!
Excellent idea, I do backing drone tracks as well, but always focused on one key for the most part.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is so fun to sing to
Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed!
Fantastic!
Glad you like it!
Super useful! Thanks :)
Thank you!
Excellent contribution to musicians Greg. I started electric bass a year ago and have been looking for a chord drone machine. Know nothing about DAW's and wanted to be able to capture all keys and all the permutations (minor, dominant, etc) of chords to practice along with.
Thank you for the appreciation!
Hope you enjoy your practice!
Thank you
I use the pomodoro technique when I am working and I like to play violin to this video for my 5 min break! I am getting so much better! Thanks so much
Sounds great! I'm glad!
What’s the pomodoro technique?
Thank you for this! Peace and joy in 2024.
Thank you! You too!
This is such a valuable practice track! Thank you! I would love it if you could make a 24 min one: 2 minutes in each key. I would practice over it every morning.
Thank you! You can check some other drone tracks here: ua-cam.com/play/PLUUmLZ99XUnRkBeANB0e8ey7IgeQz1Zia.html
You can cut it down to 30 min if you 2x speed
Hi David, can you tell me how you practicing this? I’m not a beginner but need a little help on this one. I am just playing a scale for every key that contains whichever note is droning at the time. Some Major, some minor. Is there a better way? Thanks!
@@klx400sr69 Try playing a G major Scale over the C Drone.It will sound C Lydian.If you play F major over the C drone it will sound C Mixolydian.
C major Scale over it, obviously Ionian.
B flat Major Scale played over the C Drone will sound C Dorian.A flat major scale over C drone will sound C Phrygian.And E Flat Major Scale over C Drone will sound C Aeolian.
Adapt for other drones.The drone is like a light that illuminates the C within each scale and the relationships within it morph for each 'mode'..
@@StratsRUs thank you!
Got a lot of mileage from this. Thanks for the track.
Thank you!
This is a really cool track thanks for the upload. I've been playing drums along with this and its nice to have a musical drone without any rhythm features. I play drumset but I got the idea to search for this from a Tabla player
Glad you like it!
practicing cello here ^^ mostly scales
thankyou
You're welcome!
Another one to combine it with is "Take Hold of the Flame" - by Queensryche
Nice ambient eheh
I'm about to practice some vocal techniques to repair my voice from years of bad technique multiplied by smoking, I love you for uploading this! (Unless it cuts into Rick Astley after 26 seconds)
It is really helpful for vocal exercise but I pretty quickly got into the drum n bass beatbox 😂😎🥰
Far and away, my favorite greatest hits compilation of all time.
In all seriousness though, this is a very cool idea. Any thoughts on placing a link over each note?
Check the description! :)
gonna grab my bass and see what i can do !
YEAAAAHh this shit SLAPS
In going to try with guitar

I love you
Thank you … this was soooo fuckin fun!!!!
This is just what I needed to do the pents with my eyes closed
Perfect! Enjoy!
Красиво звучит. Как это использовать с гитарой?
Wow. That's all i have to say about that. All of a sudden the modal playing changes to its mood as opposed to being influenced by the chords in a backing track.
it's helpful to spend enough time on one particular note, so I make my drone tracks for practice always at least 10 minutes long. This one is well done though in concept
Practice intervals scales songs
What did you use to create the drone? Lyra8?
Mainly Massive, If I remember well.

Brian Eno would like this track
can you make a sequel to this that progresses counter-clockwise through the flats first?
Yes, that 's on my schedule! ;)
@@GregEleftheriou Yes, please Sir. I would very much like a version of this drone track for myself, and my students going the other direction on the wheel.
It may be very obvious... But I find it nice to practice intervals to this, because it is generating a lot of repetition by moving in the circle of fifths
I totally agree with you Kristina! 🙂
Yes perfect for a wind instrument. (Sax player here ) Besides tuning there are endless possibilities only restricted by your imagination and technique.
I put a metronome on with this and try to cycle through the modes of each key
Lovely exercise! Keep it up!
watch at 2x to practice for only a half hour
I doesn't change the pitch?
lol trumpets making the most replayed top score 🎺🙌
What do you practice and in which instrument?
Harmony and arpeggios, piano
Soloing on the guitar! Perfect feel for Gilmour style solos.
Pretty fabulous for Tuba.
Its so good for my cello practice scales
Just found this! I use drones for practicing ear training, but I often have to play video after video in a full practice session. This is wildly helpful, thank you for posting!
Thanks for this. I've been a professional musician for 50 years. I'm using it to check the intonation of a new trumpet. I'm not trying to be snarky here, but what do you mean by "in every key"? I hear a single note (octaves, to be sure) on each of the different notes. A note is not a key. A note is a note. What am I missing?
Hello!
Because it's just octaves, over the A drone track you can play in the key of A major, A minor, A dorian etc. The drone track has all notes so you can play in any key you want.
@@GregEleftheriou Got it. Thanks.
Hollooooooooooooooooo
Wait, are these keys in major or minor?
They are just a root note. So you can play anything you want.
Now if you could give me a droning Major or Minor chord, I would be far more interested in that.
I'm practing solfeggio
C#/Db is weirdly oscilating
May I ask, what is the purpose of this, how can this help me ?
what's with the background sound?
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. :)
@@GregEleftheriou hi, I wonder if the approach you mention to use drones is valid for any major or minor scale
@@marco-vn8si it is!
@@GregEleftheriou great! Thanks
This great, but ads disrupt the flow.
Anyone else having a little too much fun using the number keys to play chord progressions? Nope? Just me... That's fine...
Haha i was just thinking that, but for making melodies!
This is terrible! This is not a pure sine wave so that you can tune accurately to the pitch.
