... what I'm trying to do is make a 5 minute one note drone backing track by which I mean I want either an A minor or E minor backing track to practice my scales ...

Can you help him make a 5 minute long 1 note Am backing track. TIA.

Bapu's life has been headed for this exact moment for decades!  ?

After seeing his IUD thread I'm not sure.

If it's just one note....how can it be minor?  Or major!

There really is no one more qualified. Plus he can drone in S1. 

Is it ironic that the answer to a S1 users problem resides in CW land ?

Developing the technique of playing The Am Note is the holy grail of all musical achievement - the pinnacle of centuries of understanding condensed into one short pluck.

First discovered by legendary bass-man 'ThatOrEd'* way back in the late 2000's, this once mythical fretting pattern still proves difficult for others - not only to play - but to simply understand the concept therein.

So powerful a harmonic and melodic tool has The Am Note become, its mere mention in academic circles has become synonymous with those who have reached musical enlightenment and whose company those without 'the knowledge' are not fit to keep.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Either that, or some bit-part bassist with too many basses (and plugins) who possessed an extremely limited understanding of music theory made a boo-boo** in a long forgotten post back in the ol' forum and the rest of us have subsequently never allowed him to forget it ?

@SteveStrummerUK

I think you missed your calling. You should be a novelist ?

Of course it shall be all about A minor which could get you in trouble with the law ?
