Karleb:


Just ask one of your trainee to do that, or find a stand or something that can/will support it till you're done.


Do you really know that that is not a genuine excuse?

.
Okay. I'll try.
But do you know any video editing software?

Karleb:


But what? You don't have data abi?

it's not easy. Especially to place the camcorder at the right angle,

Karleb:


Gameboi, shey you dey read this?

Yea, I read it. But...

Largas:

Leave the intruder and attention-seeker. To your question, I have not. Trust me I don't know anything more than what's been posted on this thread.
Registration holds in February and acceptance fee reciepts are due for collection.

okay.
Thank You.

Pennyways:
get mad if you like, all I don't care, all I know is that I have spoken the truth and I can't swallow it back.

dude, it's your own headache. I did my calculations and I know what made you this way.
Just get a Job and stop watching people's grammar .

Karleb:
Guys, can we talk about blues pentatonic minors?

As in, why is it hexatonic?

How do I form my chords?

...and how do I play it sef?

to be sincere, you don't really need to learn how to play blues pentatonic minor especially as a keyboardist. I only use them when I'm playing worship on the bass guitar 'cos the shape is pretty simple.

Largas:

I am not. Except that most men who are bent on making serious achievements especially academically don't woo literally every woman they meet, online or offline.
You know, you just generalized and that is another thing smart folks don't do. For all we know you are yet to come across every student of uniuyo so because you have met the average ones amongst them doesn't dispute the fact there are still brilliantly awesome ones. I also know some students from the "supposed" elite universities who can't always make grammatically coherent sentences when they speak or write. Let it slide, no university breeds perfect students in every set of graduands.

Dude, I admire your ability to offer homilies to fools. He claims to be Mr, I-Am-Smart. Yet he doesn't know that a University only gives students the platform to be Useful not to detect bad use of English and use it to become Promiscuous.
Afterall, Action and Reaction are equal and opposite in direction, innit?. I was only giving him a dose of his own medicine.

By the way, have you been able to garner any information from UniUyo?

Pennyways:
watch a grammar from a post graduate student of the university of Uyo, then tell me what the university of Uyo is made of

Mr. I-Can-Speak-Good-English, there's no need to watch his grammar. I can hear your typing

Pennyways:
you are a post graduate, yet you couldn't make a simple correct English. all I see from you is a broken blunder.
only God knows numbers of student you have scammed before the admission ended.

You need to be shot in the head, buried and shot again for this. Even if he typed a collection of alarm-bells, how does it affect your already hopeless situation ? Stop being Pathetic. At least we understood the information he's trying to pass across.

By the way, You need Jesus in your life for quoting what was posted some time ago.

mcfarlin:


Am here whatssup?

hmm. Money has seperated you from us, uhn. You just exited the group. I couldn't find you when I returned from my Jaunt.
Any explanation for that? We miss you oh.

Karleb:


G# F#- - - - - B D F#

I'm not too sure sha.

wrong. I'll tell you the chord that resolves it later. I'm not with a keyboard now.

Where's Mcfarlin ?

@greatomotoy
I'll try to do that

@karleb
KeyA
Left Hand |Right Hand
A E | A B E
F# C# | A C# E
G D | F# G D
------- | -------
what chord would be next?

I just did a video on a basic worship session in the key of A and Bb with my camcorder.
And the file size is 72mb for just 5mins .
Who has an Idea of what software would be suitable for converting it and making the file size much smaller ?

zbone:

I'm not sure he used perfect fourth chords on dat song

are you not referring to circle of fourths ?

zbone:
guys, do any of you use perfect fourths in your playing? if you do, how do you use them? I'll like us to discuss abt dis thanks.

I'd advise you to download steve wonder's Happy Birthday. I think he did what you're looking for.

@karleb
that's the just the basic one I use. I'll give you the others when I'm with a keyboard.


I'm not done yet with it. I'll post it here before the end of today.

Karleb:


B------B Eb F#

BTW, what is a C finding in the scale of F#?

you're right. It seems I've given this one before. By the way, the C should have been B.

Karleb:


What's up with all those "it involves ear and brain works"?

the idea behind forming them is using tension and relief. You need to play a chord that sounds wicked to the ear and then move on to another chord that will appease the ear. If not, all eyes would be on you. Most times I do them instinctively
Let's do it this way. I'll give some chords with a passing chord(in bold leters)in between, then you'll play it and tell me the chord that eases the tension.
KeyF#
Left Hand | Right Hand
G# | G# C Eb
Bb | Bb C# F
D | Bb D F
------- | -----------
Fill in the ------- with a suitable chord.

zbone:


I remember when I was learning how to pick the key of a song, there was dis tym the singer finished singing the song, I still had not found the key, speak of embarrassing.....

hahaha! Lolz.
when I found myself in such cases, I used to reduce the volume of the keyboard to the level where only I can hear it and then move my fingers over the keys. You need to see my face, I'd be seriousiy playing anything at that time . God knows I wasn't playing anything that relates at all, but It helped in avoiding the embarrassment

zbone:

lol@ quarrelled with singers after service.. guy you wicked o, C and Fmajor, ur singers don't suffer sha. BTW your church keyboard no get transpose function?

Lol
do you know that awkward moment when the chorister changes to an unknown key and you're like ''which kind winchi be this one?'' then other choristers would be lost and you'd get exposed. The keyboard had a transpose function but most times, it would be tough to change keys in seconds. And as a good keyboardist the proper thing to do is to modulate.

@Estarkeys
You're right but In My Opinion, the theorical aspect makes one more creative and gives the confidence to try out something new.
I remember when I used to play only on keyC and keyF. Hmm! I quarrelled a Lot with the singers after service especially if they couldn't hold on to a particular key. Was it their fault?
I had to stay-off playing the keyboard for 3months just to download E-books on playing the keyboard and learn the theorical aspect. When I returned? The rest is history.

Karleb:

What is it?

The Passing chord that is used when Moving to the fifth of any scale is derived from the 2-5-1 progression.
In the key of F( F G A Bb C D E F), the second note(which is always a Minor) is G while the Fifth note is C. Hence the movement is Gminor - Cmajor- Fmajor. But when a passing chord should is added, it becomes 2-2maj-5-1. i.e, the Minor is changed to a major before moving to the fifth.
Gminor- Gmaj-Cmaj-Fmaj.
I've heard this passing chord being used in various songs and trust me, It doesn't sound bad .

The other methods of moving to the fifth using passing chords are beyond the scope of this post 'cos it involves ear and brain work.

@karleb
I'll fix it. The low volume of the keyboard was 'cos of the combo I used. About the drummer ? That's my Junior brother.

Karleb:


Ok. Why don't you upload it on YouTube then? Because from there, everyone can download it with any format using http://en.savefrom.net


My phone supports avi format anyways.

okay. But making a video is a huge task.
Were you still able to download the praise audio?

Karleb:



Why don't you make a video?

not all phones support avi format.

The second way of moving to the fourth with a passing chord is to play the fifth note of the scale in a Minor.
In the key of B(B C# Eb E F# G# G# Bb B'). The fifth note is the F#. Therefore to move to E(which is the fourth note), F#minor( F# A C#) would be played.

The other method of moving to the fourth of a scale is beyond the scope of this post. It is a bit difficult to explain because it involves ear and brain work .

Karleb:



Is this by accident or what? Because the 7b is also the dominant seven, it all seem connected to me.

Something like that

zbone:

moving to the fourth, fifth? explain

when using a passing chord to move to the fourth note of any scale, you'll need to play around a circle of fourths.
In the Key of C#, the notes in the scale are: C# Eb F F# G# Bb C . C#. The fourth note in the scale is F#. Hence, the passing chord when moving to the F# would be the fourth note of the scale of F#(F# G# Bb B C# Eb F F#) which is B. Please note that the fourth of any key is always a Major. Therefore, Bmajor would be played.
The easiest way to remember this method is just to use the 7b of the present key you're playing. (The 7b of C# is B).

I'll explain The other method of moving to the fourth And how to move to a fifth tomorrow.

Passing chords are illegally legitimate chords.
The rules involving the creation of passing chords are based on:
1. Moving in half-steps.
2. Moving to the fourth
3. Moving to the fifth
4. Other Movements

what I posted above might not always work. But they always work
Sorry for the late reply.
You guys are not trying oh, a simple mention might just be enough to remind me. Won't it ?

@dramiddy and zbone
In other words, they both differ by an Octave. Well, that's what I was telling him.

@karleb
which Passing chords again ?
Anyway, there's a particular way of forming passing chords. I'll post it here tomorrow.
