  • That's really cool, but I have always heard this THX thing in E and Db...what do I know! :P

  • actually, I think those are the right notes. This is just sort of a silly thing, though, so I guess it's not a big deal. by the way, thanks for commenting on my other videos!

  • @jthrunz its called a perfect fifth. every interval except a fourth, fifth, and octave can be major or minor, but fourths and fifths can only be perfect, augmented (raised a half step) or diminished (lowered a half step). octaves can only be octaves.sorry if it came across douschey that not how i meant it

  • @imbatman1995 Octaves are technically perfect so they can also be augmented and diminished. Also you didn't say this but every interval can be augmented and diminished. Just go one half step up or down from major or minor.

  • Major 5th..... Pshhh..

  • At first I was like "Wait, this doesn't sound anything like "Thanks"!" Then I was like "I'm a dumbass"

  • @mkfan09 ha! lose! lol jk

    i play horn. band rocks.

  • @mkfan09 yep

  • Gliss stands for Glissando right? Sorry, i play the flute. :p

  • @primatekid right. if its the same letter name its an eighth. you are correct, i was kinda correct

  • @imbatman1995 Yeah, but if it's written as C and C#, that's not a 9th. Or C and Cb, that's not a 7th, because it's still C to C. So it's still an 8th

  • @imbatman1995 If the letter name is the same but the accidentals are different, then its still an octave, just diminished or augmented. The number does not change unless the letter interval does. A to A perfect 8th (octave), A to Ab diminished 8th, A to A# augmented 8th. Enharmonically A to G# major 7th, A to A to Bb minor 9th. If it is written with the same letter name and different accidentals, you don't automatically respell in enharmonic pitches.

  • @nivekeryas try listening to a string instrument sometime
