This is interesting... good way to recongize the sounds of the different chords... however, I am just starting out on the guitar and I am a little confused to the stuff in the parenthesis... I believe they are fingerings but I don't know how to read them to copy the chords. Otherwise - great job.

[HomeStudioEssentials]

@barbergirl28 that's the tab for the chord fingerings. the numbers represent the fret you place your finger (with the first number being the bass E string, the second the A string, etc... the sixth number is the high E string.)

For example an E minor chord is (022000) which means you place your fingers on the 2nd frest of the A and D strings and leave the other strings open (0 = open.)

An X means you don't play that particular string at all.

Hey there, I think this is great! Ive gone through 3 times now.

Even if you played a simple chord progression like G, am, F,C then have the answers after! That would be a great help!

The more of these the better!

Thanks and cheers!

Great stuff, man. Thanks a ton!

@LeDude @LeDude I'm glad someone is getting some use out of it... I am thinking of putting another video like this together today, maybe using all A chords... should be simpler than this one... that may be a good way of breaking it up. Just sort of experimenting... Any suggestions from anyone on what they think would be a good ear training technique - I'm all ears.

@HomeStudioEssentials When in video after a few times you learn the sequence so it isnt helpful anymore...if there was a software to randomize the chords the it would be somehow useful.The one thing i have gathered from ear training though is that...if you cant sing it first..then you dont know it.You can hear it forever but if you cant sing it...then its not internalized in your brain.
