How to use music theory to actually write music!

What software/overlay do you use for showing the notes and scales?

Big thx

Great content, I learned a lot thanks!

Best hour I've ever spent on the internet, thank you!

Yeah, thanks for not bursting into your videos with a, “HEY, what’s up guys!?!?” It’s frightening.

The cool thing with music theory is that once you learn about it, you can learn how to break it. You can do so many different things and still make it have fun, even if the traditional music theory wouldn't think the same

This is awesome information, extremely helpful. You're a good teacher. Cheers

For PC, Cakewalk is good, and free… SoundLab… it’s one of the oldest software pkgs out, and is well supported and updated regularly… a lot like Ableton

Sometimes the 3rd accents whether it’s minor, major, etc… on bass that is…

Within 3 minutes this man taught me something.. holy smokes.. I really like your teaching style.

i wrote a bunch of lyrics but didn't know how to add music to them and it's videos like this and other theory/practice videos and definitely lots and lots of tinkering that helped me add some! still working on others but i think i've got like half of them down which is exciting!

"here's where things get cool..."
"here's where things get cool.."

they just keep getting cool :) no matter where we are

I got the idea, scott, thanks for your teaching to how to write music...

The quality of your videos is truly mesmerizing! It’s so appreciated by all the viewers thanks for creating at such a high level🎉🎉🎉

this was crazy helpful! you have great way of teaching in the perfect pace.

Hi, Scott! You are just a pleasure to watch, listen to and learn from!!! You have a terrific and eloquent personality and pass on your love of music and guitar effortlessly and wittily. In my vocabulary, you are a 'Mensch' - kudos to your parents, as well!. Thanks so much, and all the best in 2024!!!

Incredible and time well spent. Thanks for putting this together.

You're amazing! This lesson is amazing! Thank you so much.

I need to say thankyou. Been 15 yrs and u finally got me back in my studio

Man, watched and hour straight didnt even realize till you pointed it out, this was so good!! I learned so much, I'll definitely be hitting up the Patreon course!! Thank YOU!!!

I honestly thought Jeff Tweedy was teaching me music theory.

I had it on 1.5 speed and its crazy how a little tempo can completely change the feeling of a song.

I am TOTALLY impressed by your teaching meathod. Very non-threatening! Very much full of information spoon fed in a simple form and very easy to digest! I m kninda blown away. I plan to subscribe and follow you! Laxidasical teaching with a KNOCK Out punch! 🥊🥊👍🏻😉👏❤
Thanks!!

Hi I've read the comments people have written , I'm definitely going to look forward to becoming a paitriat. I've not played my guitar for a long time , And you my frend made me go clean and tune up and play along . THANK YOU SO MUCH THE BEST THING IVE DONE FOR DECADES. 😂

i'm a keyboardist but watching this was very useful. You're a great human! Really enjoyed learning from you.

Very informative ❤

Hey! I just seen you today. I been playing guitar for some time I really understand the way you expand it, may we do one on one. I'd be very happy to learn more in the guitar world. 🤘

never seen anything like this my whole life. like the quality of this channel is unmatched in so many different levels… not just in music theory category; never in my online presence, being connected to internet, I felt an online platform being used this efficiently and professionally. This guy made me comment for the first time in ages and really take a patreon promotion seriously. I am so in awe

I’ve played for 18 years and I would say I can play along with some pretty difficult stuff. I never learned theory and always just kind of copied what others did. This video just made so many things make sense that I somehow missed along the way. Thanks man, I would buy you a beer if I could!

Your technical setup is really impressive! 🎉

This is actually so awesome

I have lost the point for years. However, it's okay to stop and tune😂

No hype.. less than a minute in and pressed like.

Hey thanks brother for making this video. I've played for like 28 or so years but I never understood theory and only had two lessons. I just taught myself and never knew why things worked but after watching this it makes sense now. And now it opens up a whole new realm of possibilities for me. Thanks a million

You have a gift and talent to teach the language of music that is fun and exciting! Thank you!

Scott, I just need you to know. Youre an incredible teacher and very well spoken. I appreciate how much you take time to simply explain things in depth. Happy New Year when it comes!

damn very well done

You explained scale so well I dont think ill forget what it is again, thanks!

bob ross of music theory training

Scott! It's Paul Matheson. Great lesson!! And the new set up looks amazing. Looks like it's really helping create some great content. Hope all is well!

SUPER HELPFULL

I randomly skipped to a part later in the video. Subbed within seconds. That's talent my friend

5 minutes in and i can tell that this is gonna be awesome.

Hey Scott loving this pls keep creating more

anyone know what guitar software he is using that highlights the guitar notes???

Holy shit this is great
