- Modulate to no less than 8 keys with just one full diminished 7 chord. This called: The diminished portal chord. Changing keys was never so easy. In this music theory guitar lesson you learn that the diminished portal chord relies on the symmetrical structure of diminished 7 chord. This typical structure of a full diminished chord results in some awesome modulation techniques. One of the properties of the diminished chord is that it can be used to modulate very easy to 8 different major and minor keys and even to different modes of the major scale. In this guitar tutorial you’ll find practical examples with tablature. This modulation technique is used in many style like Jazz, Fusion, Rock, Metal, Pop and Blues.

This channel is the highest possible evolutionary point of the Internet 🔥
😅 great comment 👍
Agreed
Nah man, check out Robbie Barnby's channel, specifically his video on Barry Haris diminished 6th method. Goes wayyy deeper than this! Lol
what an incredible break down of the diminished chord
Man I am often resistant to go over something I think I know, but every time I pick up a little golden nugget here and there.
Always 100% quality lessons, always surprise for clarity of explanations, thanks so much for this channel Rob!
Thanks Rafa!
I shall be using this a lot tomorrow. Fascinating.
Brilliant as always Rob. There's so much packing into this video. Many thanks as always.
I highly appreciate the clearness of the explanation and the presentation and the sample melody for the proof of concept. It's rare that all the 3 is together.
The best tutorials of 2023! Muchas gracias desde Argentina!
Thanks Jo!
This one of the best lessons I ever seen on the internet. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Me: all good so far. Rob: the nerdy chapter. Me: mind blown! Brilliant video, Rob. Loving the humour and the oom-pa music 🙂
This is just I needed to find! Top notch stuff, thank you!
Another clear and concise video. Fantastic, thank you!
Marvelous video and explanations! Thank you!
Thank you - great job ! Well done. I have a lot to learn and practice.
Fantastic Video, great explanations and lots to work with
Thank you, your Channel is just "brilliant" and so helpful.
A Gift to all.
❤
The content quality and the effort you put out there for us is incredible brother thank you for sharing with us your guitar wisdom and courses they've helped me improve a lot as a self taught amateur guitarist. 🙏
Thank you!
Thanks for another fantastic video - the graphics looks great in this one!
Great explanation ! Thank you.
Awesome.... Thank you!
A proper nerd out!
1000K of Thanks
What A great Video I love it came at the right time into my life. I love it. The diminished sound is what I’ve bn looking for, Thank you sir.
fantastic content. thanks
thanks so much for this insight. i use dim chords in blues. mainly to substitute boring dom7 triads in V I. this lesson is so important, showing the power of dim chords. everybody should know it. Finally I can listen more relaxed to music theory people, making important gestures when they spell out the word TRITONE SUBSTITUTION. YEAH😊😊😊😊
very,very cool and superbly explained and PLAYED.
Great stuff!-
I enjoy your tutorials thank you
Diminished is the door to EVERYWHERE. Heck, just HALF of it is the entire workhorse of the Dom7.
perfect🤘, thank you🙏
Now that was a true master class thank you teacher
Genius teacher!
Thanks!
That Rick&Morty ref. totally earned clicking the like button XD
Brilliant
Useful.
Thanks 🎉 Sir, you solved my mystery for the concept of those complex modulation. 😅
Cool. Key mods should come with a government warning...but this dim chord method of changing key is wicked. Thanks for the knowhow very much appreciated.
Thank you for this video Rob! I remember that at some point i was obsessed with modulations and I’ve been trying my own ways to modulate from one key to another. I wanted to become the master of modulations. I came up with the idea „Can i modulate in modes?” In my opinion „yes” . Take E F Phrygian dominant and as long as it fits the riff think of E or F as dominant (V) to E - A lydian (example) or F - c (minor ) it will take the music experience to another level . Waiting for another videos !!!
Yes modulating between modes can create awesome sounds!
Excellent video about one of my favorite chords! FyI the chord labeled Db7 around 13:12 should be labeled E7. Otherwise amazing!
I never see videos talking about which passing chords can be used in a diatonic scale. Like chords you can use in bebop. Sure this awesome video talks about using diminished chords which can be used as passing chords but there must be some rules whether you are in a minor or major tonality. Have you ever done a video like that?
I didn't do a video on that, but I'll put it on my list!
sir, can you make a useful video guitar licks in major or minor key? thanks in advance sir🙏🙏
So if I was to sum it in a nutshell, a diminished chord can resolve to a minor one tone below or a major one semitone above relative to any of it's 4 notes? Would this be correct?
Your presentation and level of understanding is unprecedented kind sir!
Thanks! and yes...you are right :)
Huge
Great Great lesson.This channel has the best lessons on YT. I have a question though: 17:42 can someone please explain the numbering of the chords in the progression? if Fmaj7 is ii, and E7 is bII, how come C is I ?
it's a typo... the E7 is III7 (chromatic mediant)
Yes that's quite a typo there... Excuse me for that. Fmaj7 - E7 - C should be designated as IVmaj7 - III7 - I.
E7 is the major 3rd and is called a chromatic mediant.
I'd like to purchase some lessons (similar to TrueFire) but I only see the option for subscription. Can you purchase instead?
This guy was teaching fugue to JS Bach. It's like a Mercedes with strings
I have a wonderful idea for you :D
I'm curious what you think about it :)
how about making a video with different chord progressions
(for practicing)
BUUUT
each of them will be Chopinian :) from some of Chopin's works
for example, his Funeral March (3rd movement of the Sonata) and other :>
what You think?
Fusion Chopin vamp :>
or post-bop Chopin
bluegrass Chopin :D
flamenco Chopin
You know , progressions from Chopin
but in few genres :) ...and black metal Chopin vamp!! YESSsss :D
..or maybe Liszt will be better option? ;D
Yes...but how about Gaspar Sanz, Fernando Sor or Heitor Villa Lobos? ;)
@@QJamTracks hmmmm...no :D
How come in the part about the diminished chord in the minor scale when it’s written out in seventh chords, the G7 should be a G minor seven shouldn’t it be? Was that a typo and in the major scale the fifth chord is definitely going to be a dominant seven but in the minor mode, shouldn’t that be a minor seven? 🤔And the 7th degree should be the dominant 7, right? What am I not understanding? This crystal seems a bit cloudy. 😂 Because if the seventh degree is raised to a major 7 wouldn’t the tonic be a minMaj7 chord? And the EbMaj7 should be an EbMaj7#5? I’m relatively new to music theory so I just want to make sure I understand correctly what is happening. Thanks
I understand the confusion. The point is that in many cases the minor 7th degree in a minor scale becomes a major 7th degree, only to create a dominant (major) chord on the 5th degree. All other chords are often unchanged. The first degree is stays most of the time a min7 chord. So chords in "A minor" with a major 7ht degree (=A harmonic minor) would often be:
Am7, Bm7b5, Cmaj7(and not Cmaj7#5), Dm7, E7, Fmaj7 and G7(or G#dim7).
I hope this clarifies it...
@@QJamTracks Thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to respond.
Was wondering the same thing- thanks for clarifying!
Thank you. Very interesting perspective. I consider myself to be an advanced musician who graduated from GIT. While I completely understand your relating these diminished chords to their respective dominant chords and their functions, I'm surprised that you never mention secondary dominant and 7th diminished 7 chords. This perspective yields different chord analysis, but the end result is the same. I'm curious about your thoughts on this.
Hi Robert. I left that out, because I want the lesson to be confined to one subject in order to keep it clear for every level of understanding. This video is about the diminished chord as a modulation tool and not about secondary dominants. Like you said the result is the same, but its another subject (although it is strongly related).
Maybe I could heave touched secondary dominants briefly...
Your first chord diagram is wrong at 0:25. The note marked as minor seventh (b7) is actually the diminished seventh (bb7). Didn't watch the rest.
1:42
You are right, it is wrong.
That last interval at 2:15 from Bbb to C is actually a #2 (enharmonic to b3)
For clarity, it's labeled wrong, but the fingering is correct.
& if you watch the rest of the video he clearly shows the correct degrees resolving every which way.
What happened to the shameless self promotion?
Too shameful? Trying to keep the video pure & timeless?
It was only 10 seconds, but... I hate begging for attention :) So that scene was cut!
