Run To You Solo Harmonies

[PSea]

In Bakerman’s other thread the whole thing is notated, and is consistent with what I had come up with (and which I think is also consistent with what you’re saying).

might you have a link? thanks!

thanks! not sure how i missed that!

Hmmm? I'm not hearing that. I hear harmonies on all four notes. Minor 3rd, major 3rd, 4th, minor 3rd. Or using a major scale, 2/4, 1/3, 5/1, 3/5

I hear them on all the notes too.

The run is based on three Sus4 chords, each a whole tone apart.
Doing this with a harmoniser is tricky. So I wouldn't make it so complicated and just play it this way.

And that's more than Keith Scott does live

Not really IMO, with Custom Shifter type. One global scale can cover 2 instances of this figure a whole step apart (without requiring a key change) if you play the higher part, so you only need to activate the block set to the appropriate key for the F# & E chords, then lower the key a whole step anytime during the 3rd-4th measure.

Also you have the first lower (main non-grace) note of each triplet group wrong there. Here's my notation from the other thread. (Ignore accents and scene change indications if not trying to import/recreate the ADSR-based key switching approach.)

You're right about the first lower note. But I don't like the sound of the resulting minor third .
I prefer the perfect fourth to emphasise the tension of the sus4 character.

Could you use a looper and just build? Doesn't that solo just repeat and build until the end?

Totally possible. But might be tough for the band and the loop to stay in time? Unless you are using click tracks.

Not if you do it the way I did it in the video I posted above - there are only 3 intervals, and they are adjacent chromatic intervals (m3, M3, P4) - easy to do with the chromatic shifter and an expression pedal. I didn’t even have to adjust the modifier parameters other than to set the range to cover the 3 semitones. Everything else is default settings.

A bit late to the party. A pretty simple solution - not too technical but sounds ok to me.
Custom scale (Gb) - set all at plus 3 except for C, F, G which are plus 4
If you play it in E (like me) just change the custom scale to E
For the solo riff start on G-string 13th fret (11th for key of E)
