AZ FREQ'S CD Will have a Special Thanks to Signals Music Listed on the CD Insert 💿 🎶🎸🎶 The Pandemic and Lockdowns have given me more time to View your videos !! I use both your new videos and the historic Back log of your Lessons on RUclips !! Thanks for the App introduction .. I'll be using it often 🎸🎶
Jake! Just wanted to chime in to say I bought your poster and it arrived last week and I love it! A big thanks to you and the fellow artists that put the work in to make it happen!
Thanks for the FRETASTIC link. I recognized all of the online fretboard clips you showed because I have also been searching for fretboard training charts. I've even written a few of my own fretboard tools. I took a quick look at this one and it does seem nice. One small thing, the pentatonic box numbers are not the same as the standard ones. Something worth checking out is the POW Music videos. He uses some great fretboard animations for illustrating licks.
Forgot to mention- You don't have to download fretastic, and it's usuable on damn near every device you can imagine. NEAT! If you have technical questions or issues, send them to the contact on the site please :)
This guy literally has a mode sheet/poster in his store and is advertising something that essentially provides his poster's information for free. That's how you know he isn't just here for fame, views, money, anything like that. He's here to teach, and a damn good job he does at it.
It's just a g7 but the harmonies hit the natural 7th... wtf? I wrote it without much planning but going back now I think that is kinda weird... The next chord is a f#7 with a #5, lovely altered dominant
This took a shitload of time and effort. Very well done. Point taken, and it is appreciated. Excellent work, especially considering the tech nightmares. When people get together and expand a simple concept, the results can be legendary.
Great video. Curious if you have been taking vocal lessons. Missed the usual apology for not being a vocalist and the singing seemed better in a somewhat ineffable way (maybe more confident?)
The site is NOT FREE btw. It charges 49 USD for all the features you have talked about in this video. I assume it was free for some time, but now this video feels like a scam and its really not pleasant to listen about smth good and "FREE" for 15 minutes only to find out the thing costs money.
Another amazing video Jake! You are one of the few people bringing me back to posting on RUclips again...I owe a LOT to you...nothing but respect and admiration my friend!
While I have nothing against reaper, I think this time it could have been solved by just using stem or wav files, without needing of cross compatibility
It's a combination of things. Use Reaper. Don't install updates. Ask for stems if you have incompatible software. And most importantly, take backups! I've got all my projects backed up in three places and I've had to dig into them more than once.
Sadly the tool, which looks very nice, is no longer free and has the monetization model I dislike the most - vampiric subscription. Looks nice, but no way. I'd pay like $14.99 on steam for a containerized desktop version tho.
But fretastic isnt free....if you try to use all of the functions that are mentioned in this video you have to 'GO PREMIUM'!....so it is just an advert,like all the rest.
Me and a friend of mine have an inside joke that you and and a couple other guitar teachers in RUclips are G O D S of music theory. And truth be told it's not untrue the stuff you teach is incredibly worded and truly helps to break down not only music theory and the song writing aspects but it's truly an inspiration and gets me in the mood to try and write stuff with the stuff I've learned. Thanks man, keep it up 💜💜💜
Damn, beat me to it. I was trying to make an app pretty much exactly like this but i didnt have enough coding knowledge! Got it partially but cant make it look as good, have the ideas in my head! Looks awesome, will go check it out!
Funny how small a world it is. As a musician and also a dev I am subscribed to Gary's design guide channel, but also see him sometimes posting Malmsteen play throughs and stuff on Facebook in guitar forums :D
One of the best scale applications video ever! That song is so catchy it reminds me of The Beatles, Frank Zappa and Ben Levin for sure 😄 Would still love to know how you made the scale sound musical. I have another question Jake and would love your help: I get lots of delay from my focusrite 2i2 3rd ed interface and I hear from different sources that I have to create 2 tracks in ableton 1audio in auto so the sound can be heard and a 2nd audio on off and to copy&paste the first audio onto the second track so there is no delays (still getting some so I will try lowering the buffer size too) What interface are you using to track your guitars and also how you deal with delays (settings), would love your help Jake. Also thanks for persevering through that whole Daw ordeal, great lesson and without your will we wouldn't get this awesome song that I didn't even know I would cherish so much. I LOVE EVERYTHING HERE and your vocals are so awesome because they create a sense of familiarity and also they're well done! thanks for the scale recommendation 😀 best ever 👍!!!
Very nice!! I was able to remove a couple of strings on the fretboard and it automatically changes it to a bass guitar! 4-string OR 5-string!! Very nice layout and ease of use!! Thanks dude!!
I've gone back to listen to this song 15 times now (as of posting this comment). I seriously LOOOVE IT!! And it's got me so excited to write again. Thanks so much, Jake. :D
app doesn't work no confirmation email was sent to me at this point this thing is a steaming turd will update if anything changes, dk if you want your name attached to this app
Ben Levin is the fookin' man! I love it when my favorite RUclipsrs shout out each other (well, when they don't actually know each other.) Great video, great scale, great electric static metallic hair and great to have you out there. The scales are free, do with them what you will.
You’re a wonderful teacher. Looking for sweep picking lessons allowed me to find your channel plus this lesson. Thanks for your dedication and I hope you’re making good $ returns on your contributions to the music world.
Man, that fretastic site is really great, really easy to use! I think I'm gonna post their link under my videos from now on... Thx for sharing! And cool video btw.! Cheers
Wow this is all kinds of awesome, just yesterday I decided to start incorporating more scales into my playing and exercise and this comes up in my recommended! This is one of the best musical tool I have ever seen honestly and since I'm a developer as well it kinda inspired me to do a version for piano!
I've been following both you and Ben Levin for years, and to see you take inspiration from his work is so cool. Maybe there's a potential collaboration in the future?

Thanks for sharing this, I've recently begun after years of playing guitar without serious practice, to practice my scales and mess around with composing full tracks on my DAW, while actually knowing what I'm doing instead of just "guessing" and "feeling" it out. And I've been looking for something exactly like this to aide me in playing along with my guitar. Perfect timing.
thank you. I was buying the guitar pro 7.5 version software just for scales and keys and this comes up....I didn't wanna spend so much just for scales under one platform.....thank you so much. Ra5
I don't see a Patreon link in the description. How do I throw money at you if you DON'T GIVE ME A LINK...i know i could just go to another video but then i could not leave this nauseating comment 😁 Thanks for all are doing and have done. Keep being AWESOME!

ngl if guitar doesnt work out I think I could make a lot of money as a WEALTH GURU ripping people off. let's hope it doesn't come to that

I discovered this channel 2 days ago.Now im addicted.Thank u jake for all ur great work.
Jake! Just wanted to chime in to say I bought your poster and it arrived last week and I love it! A big thanks to you and the fellow artists that put the work in to make it happen!
glad you like it! I'll tell the artists :)
That bebop riff is proper sweet. Nice track, really good vibe.
This is the video I needed. That was some real motivational speaking brother. You're awesome man

Nice one i love your videos im a producer and musician for 13 years now but im still open to learn new things
i like the way your videos are made :)
It's so incredible how far technologie has gone. Super amazing video as always, thanks for sharing!
Beautiful lesson. Could you please do a video on how to make melodies/ or makinh jazz songs?
Great video Jake. I always learn allot from you. I appreciate it.
Super convenient! Thanks!
Thank you so much for turning me onto this site. By the way, you’re fucking awesome!!!
Amazing, thanks!!!
Whoa. Things got extra inspirational there leading up to the 11 minute mark. 🤣
Thats the best recommendation ever!
Thank you!
Fun and well done
so great thank you
was that rant about overcoming technical hurdles just what you received from customer support?

Co-creator of Fretastic here. If you have any questions, shoot away!
Sounds great 👍
Absolutely my favorite site right now! Thank you so much.
Its everything i was seeking, thanks for always sharing! Alot of people would try to keep it as their secret
This is an outstanding site! Thank you so much for sharing!!

Jake is a golden god
Another fantastic video! Thanks
@a d wait what
Jake is our music waifu
It's damn expensive poster, that's why
So you're telling me that playing the pentatonic scale up and down isnt good enough to be considered music?
No precious...
You dare mock me!
@@thomasfokas hehe... really?..lol

Well, yes but actually no.

Jake and adam neely in one day? Thank god
Ben Levin too ;)
Just came here from Adam Neely lol
@@heartsthekitteh6239 same tho
yes me too
Paul Davids too
Holy shit what is that amazing chord change when Jake sings “but they don’t know”
It's just a g7 but the harmonies hit the natural 7th... wtf? I wrote it without much planning but going back now I think that is kinda weird... The next chord is a f#7 with a #5, lovely altered dominant
truly one of the best music channel, everything's so clear that I actually like music theory thanks to you !
... Unfortunately the monetization has kicked in now and you can't do, say, 3nps without coughing up.
Meh it’s charging 5/month for premium now. The free version doesn’t even loop scales so it’s basically useless 💩
10:00 true. sometimes I spend 2 or 3 days just solving technical problems. you just have to get used to it
Jake's the kind of guy you want to buy a beer and just pick his brain for hours.
This took a shitload of time and effort. Very well done. Point taken, and it is appreciated. Excellent work, especially considering the tech nightmares. When people get together and expand a simple concept, the results can be legendary.
Great video. Curious if you have been taking vocal lessons. Missed the usual apology for not being a vocalist and the singing seemed better in a somewhat ineffable way (maybe more confident?)
Ah thanks! It just happened to be in a register I can sing comfortably in, as well as a casual style that doesnt need any real technique.
The site is NOT FREE btw. It charges 49 USD for all the features you have talked about in this video. I assume it was free for some time, but now this video feels like a scam and its really not pleasant to listen about smth good and "FREE" for 15 minutes only to find out the thing costs money.
Sadly it is not free anymore... anyting out of the basic cost 50$... which might not be a lot for many, but for most is a hefty sum...
Your voice reminds me of Paul Gilbert 👏 killer work on this
The segment from 9:23 to 11:08 hit way too close to home. Great video as always :)
This guy is so smart and so talented, I’m so happy I found your channel Jake. Thanks for the amazing information that you pack into each video!
Another amazing video Jake! You are one of the few people bringing me back to posting on RUclips again...I owe a LOT to you...nothing but respect and admiration my friend!
10:46 LMAOOOO I shouldn’t be laughing this hard 🤣🤣😭😭😭😭
The problem solving for technical problems is starting to use Reaper
Amen to that. I started off using Adobe audition 1.5 and reaper is the only thing that comes close to the functionality that I used to enjoy.
The problem solving for technical problems is to stop installing updates...
While I have nothing against reaper, I think this time it could have been solved by just using stem or wav files, without needing of cross compatibility
It's a combination of things. Use Reaper. Don't install updates. Ask for stems if you have incompatible software. And most importantly, take backups! I've got all my projects backed up in three places and I've had to dig into them more than once.

When’s the song at the end gonna get a full release?
i really wanna see that song pop up on spotify
I registered for this Fretastic app, but it does not let me do anything without signing up for a $4.99/month subscription.
0:45 "This is completely free..."
Free?! TAKE MY MONEY!!!
its not tho

@@Messmer_the_Impaler you are terrifying
Brings a tear to my eye.
sucks that Fretastic is no longer free
Just signed up for fretastic its really what I was looking for,Thanks!
Unfortunately, fretastic is no longer free, they charge around 5$ per month for unlocking full features.
This isn't free. In fact, to me it's worse than not being free- It's subscription based.
Noticed the same thing. But this video was 1 year ago.. monetization kicked in later maybe
I did kick in later, fretastic was free when this video was made
and now it is not subscription based anymore. One time 50$ payment which is well worth it.
Fantastic !!! Now it s not free at all ...
Learnt a lot through your videos, thanks man🙏🏽god bless you😇
Half of the features are premium only now... How disappointing
Damn, beat me to it. I was trying to make an app pretty much exactly like this but i didnt have enough coding knowledge!
Got it partially but cant make it look as good, have the ideas in my head!
Looks awesome, will go check it out!
I come back to this video to mention that Fretastic is no longer free anymore :(
For real? Damn
@@kevinschmitt5592 i come back to report once again that, while they did lock it behind a premium mode, i believe it’s free again lol
@@TorqueBow hahaha! Right on thanks man!
I like how you used the tape cutting scene from a year and a half in the life of metallica lol
Holy Fuq the music video is so dumb and silly :"D
As someone heavily interested in guitar and programming, this was awesome to see two of my favorite youtubers being joined together like this!
No longer free, you gotta pay for premium to use 3nps...
Funny how small a world it is. As a musician and also a dev I am subscribed to Gary's design guide channel, but also see him sometimes posting Malmsteen play throughs and stuff on Facebook in guitar forums :D
Lol, I try to play Malmsteem, at least.
Jake how did you do the rock video of you singing and playing that’s great what software did you use. .?
Hell yeah Ben Levin, he's an inspiring and uplifting dude!
Guess what, you are also an inspiring and uplifting dude!

Yeah, I was thinking "Ben Levin" through the whole track. Pretty cool.
