@AlexSmithMusic excuse the really newb question but what exactly is modulating? Is it just transposing what your playing up a 3rd?

[AlexSmithMusic]

@DillonB1234 lol, it's spelled "noob" or "n00b," by the way. But yes, modulation is changing from one key to another (just like transposing, as you put it)

@AlexSmithMusic haha thanks. I tried modulating a minor third and it totally worked in extending an idea much longer without it sounding repetitve.
