In this video, I explore and compose a song using the Harmonic Major Scale. I discuss what makes it different from Ionian (Normal Major). It's a very versatile and often ignored scale.
I use a 2022 American Original 60s Telecaster Thinline to demonstrate
In the final version I use:
Acoustic Guitar: 2003 Taylor 415 recorded through a Shure SM57
Guitar: 2022 American Original 60s Telecaster Thinline
Bass: 1975 Rickenbacker 4001
Synth: Roland SRX
Electric Keys: Waves Electric 200
Vocals recorded with a Wunder CM7 Fet, a Shure SM7B and a Beyerdynamic M160
I use the Art Pro MPA II and the Art Pro VLA II as outboard gear.
My MIDI controller is a Yamaha DX7
Everything is recorded using a Universal Audio Apollo Twin USB.
Mixed and recorded with Cubase 12 Pro.
Song: My Embrace
