2) Practice
As well as "understanding", I realised that the other key to learning the fretboard patterns is repetition. But not just repetition of patterns on the guitar as you might be used to - this encourages mindless "practice" that might get a few shapes under your fingers but won't lead to the understanding of the fretboard that is really required to become a great guitarist.
Rather than mindlessly repeating scale patterns, Guitar Notes Master encourages you to get the patterns into your head first before you transfer them to the guitar. It does this through a Practice module that randomly asks you to answer questions based on the lessons that you have completed. The questions require you to think through your answer so you gain real understanding of how the fretboard patterns are built - understanding which you can use to create further patterns and really unlock the fretboard.
I also realised that it's important to be repeating these exercises as often as possible. This is where Guitar Notes Master can really be beneficial since the questions are always answered using a virtual fretboard, so you don't need to be anywhere near a guitar in order to practice. There's no minimum time you have to spend answering questions either, so it's really easy to fire up Guitar Notes Master at any time, answer a few questions and then get back to whatever else you were doing. Imagine how fast your fretboard knowledge could grow if you install Guitar Notes Master on a work laptop and use it to practice fretboard patterns in otherwise wasted time on trains, planes or just in five minute breaks!
3) Guitar
Finally, you do want to transfer the patterns you've learned onto the guitar, so Guitar Notes Master will help you here as well. The Guitar module enables you to select a scale pattern or chord type from those covered in the lessons, choose a root note, and generate your own printable guitar tablature practice sheet that you can refer to as you practice the patterns on your guitar.
For scale patterns, Guitar Notes Master will generate a full set of practice exercises - not only straightforward ascending and descending patterns, but also exercises playing the scales in groups of notes, or jumping notes, so you can really learn them musically, not just as boring scale exercises. For chords, Guitar Notes Master generates a practice sheet of the chords of a similar type.
Features
As well as this, Guitar Notes Master has a wealth of features to tailor the learning experience to your own liking, such as:
- Support for Left-Handed Fretboard Display
- A choice of 11 fretboard color schemes
- Choose to position the notes on the fret, behind the fret or centrally between two frets
- Playback displayed notes through any General MIDI compatible synthesizer/sound card (including built-in Microsoft Wavetable Synth)
- Switch the fretboard display to show the notes or intervals in the current pattern
- Guitar Notes Master can correct your answers for each note you enter, or for more of a challenge set it only to tell you when...
