What you will learn
Identify the 12 notes of the chromatic scale using an absolute numbering system from 1 to 12.
Describe the difference between traditional scale-degree-based theory and the mode-centered system taught in this course.
Recognize modal shapes and chord structures using top-string-on-top fretboard diagrams.
Classify chords and intervals based on modal centers rather than traditional major/minor labeling.
Apply the modal whole-step and modal half-step concepts to construct chords and intervals across the fretboard.
Demonstrate how to build chord names using the mode-based naming convention (e.g., dD3, xA4).
Compare traditional chord progressions to modal-centered ones, mapping them accurately in Excel.
Translate between standard notation, guitar tab, and the new system using custom-built Excel sheets.
Analyze the logic behind conventional chord naming systems and articulate their limitations.
Construct personalized fretboard maps and chord charts using Excel’s formulaic capabilities.
Evaluate the efficiency and clarity of the mode-centered system against legacy systems.
Design a custom workflow for songwriting, improvisation, or teaching using the streamlined naming and mapping system.
