I just love sticking my tongue in tight pussy.... or what the hell are we talking here anyway.... umm.....aural skills.... listen carefully each note... try to hear the difference... every note has it's own character... not the pitch but character... some notes sound sharper.. some sound softer... some sound brigther... some darker... whatever.... slowly go thru all the notes... try to remember each note's character... then start playing random notes without looking at them and try to guess wich one is right... piano or keyboards are good for that type of stuff... then do singing trills.... try to sing all the different intervals and chords you play... and then do shitloads of transcribing... start with the easier stuff

Shouldn't working with scales help there?... teaching you to listen for the individual notes, not to mention being able to recognize scale usage in songs could help you to keep place.

Endrik is doing what that perfect pitch course wants you to do (you know, the one advertised in every damn magazine... the David Lucas Burge... Berge... Barge?). I never tried the course, but I've heard a lot of people do like it.
It's probably better to gain a sense of relative pitch first through singing scales and then eventually arpeggios.

I never tried the course, but I've heard a lot of people do like it. nah, I'm not doing it because of book.... I've seen the Burge one and it indeed has the similar way... but it's pretty much what most of the people with perfect pitch would tell you to do. it's a good method imo... I wasn't born with the perfect pitch and still don't have the absolute pitch... but I trained that way for some time and I can sing C in any situation without hearing another note.... so I've always got my C and the rest of the notes I can get with my fairly good relative pitch.

Emp also learnt Spanish in just 5 msn sesions... Jejeje...
For aural skills you should begin by singing intervals... That helps a lot... Play a note and then try to sing a determined interval... And then check with a piano or guitar or whatever if you sang it right...
It`s all PPP
See ya... I have to go...

Fretboard mastery + Speed mechanics for lead guitar + metal lead geetar vol. 2 , since I deemed vol. 1 to be for newbs ;D . Vol. 2 has the indepth explanation of modes that I was looking for. And yah, that dude rocks my socks off, really nice literature.

Vol. 2 has the indepth explanation of modes that I was looking for.. for real? i'm trying to learn modal playing, and the only lesson on IG about modes that the link isn't broken is good n00b stuff, but i can't find anything to go beyond or more in-depth on the subject. looks like i'm going to have to decide between some Stetina books or a RAM upgrade for my laptop...hard choice

Go for music books imo... PC's keep getting old no matter how fast you upgrade them, but music is there and will be there forever. Also I've found some modal lessons that might interest you here: www.bmusic.com.au/links/lessons/theory/modes1a.htmlBut ofc, the stuff you get for free cannot be compared to the stuff that you pay at least 10 bucks for... Imho go for books, they have everything you need to become what you want to be
