Hi Scott!! Your lessons have really changed my bass playing. Thank you for sharing all this top level stuff for free here on KZfaq. As soon as I start working I hope to join the academy because it really is incredible. I just wanted to throw this idea out there because I noticed you have a lot of subscribers but I think that there is not enough for how good your stuff actually is and that may be due to a language barrier. For example: I'm originally from Brazil, so I only started watching your videos after I moved to America and learned English. I just think what you are doing is so good that you should have millions of subscribers. Maybe (but I am not sure about this) having translations on a couple of main languages could double if not triple the number of subscriptions! God bless, man!!

Mathematically the answer is 4! x 12 keys (ignoring the double naming of some keys) = 288. However, as with triads, standard music theory only recognises the Root inversion (e.g. Cmaj7/C - root note in bass); 1st inversion (e.g. Cmaj7/E - major 3rd in bass); 2nd inversion (e.g. Cmaj7/G - perfect 5th in bass); 3rd inversion (e.g. Cmaj7/B - major 7th in bass) the order of the notes stacked above the bass note is ignored. So "standard" chord theory only give 4 inversions of a major 7th chord in 12 keys, so 48 in total. In other words there are two answers, either 288 (maths based answer) or 48 (standard chord construction theory answer).

Zon Brookes you totally beat me to this. When they were mentioning permutations - my brain went straight to factorial. 4! * 12 keys * 4 inversions. 24 * 12 * 4 = 288 * 4 = 1152

using the four notes in any order, there are 288 combinations possible. Using the standard inversions, the number of permutations in all 12 keys is 48.

There are six permutations for the arpeggio without inversiones (1357, 1375, 1537, 1573, 1735, 1753), then 3 inversions, so 6+6+6+6=24 permutations in just one key. For 12 keys, 12 times 24 equals 288.

@szamtartozsolt-attila4866 7 жыл бұрын

well, if we don't count the root in an octave higher and stay within one octave then my answer is 288 possibilities. 6 permutations per inversion and no permutation is repeated. if we should use elements in octave positions the numbers multiply exponentially depending on how many elements we use within the range of multiple octaves.

Isn't it 4x3x2x1 for permutations of one position of a maj7, multiplied by 4 for all the inversions, multiplied by 12 for all the keys. So, 1152?

you can do 48 different permutations in all 12 keys if you don't allow repetition of the permutations during the inversions

permutations of a 7th chord in a single position, 4 notes available, is 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 (aka 4!) is 24, there are actually 15 -written- major keys, you mention 12 actual major keys. so, it's 12 * 24, and the way I can keep it in my head, is if I turn it into 12 * 2 * 12, and I know 12 * 12 is 144, times 2 is 288

@samuelgreen7248 7 жыл бұрын

There are 6 possible permutations, and 4 possible inversions. Times these two together = 24 (and that's just one chord!) Translate this to all 12 keys and you have 288. Wow, time to get in the shed! ;)

There are 1152 permutations. I thought it was 288, but that's always playing the lowest note first. Taking root position as an example, we can play any of the four notes first. So it becomes 4x3x2x1=24. 24 permutations per position, 96 per tone and 1152 total.

It's a shame that two different names are given for what the subject is here, namely 'chord tones' and 'arpeggios'. Beginners are likely to take some time to realise that they are one and the same thing.

@eleventhletter2418 6 жыл бұрын

arthurmee I can vouch for that lol. When I was just beginning, it took me a while to realize there wasn't much of a difference between the two.

@TundrahSounds 6 жыл бұрын

To different parts of the same thing. The actual chosen notes that make a chord , and when they are played. Chord tones describes what tones are played. The arpeggio tells us when they are played.

Well not really, arpeggios are made of chord tones, they're not exactly the same thing.

Phil's from London, so it's a version of the classic "cockney" accent. It's still English, but not "The Queen's BBC English" (otherwise known as "Received Pronunciation"). You have to have lived in Essex, London, or the South East of England to understand it, and having met Phil and had a chat with him, he's a Diamond Geezer....
