In my song I have this phrase....
« on: December 03, 2012, 08:12:51 PM »
hi guys back here again with another thread. In my song I have this phrase that goes

E-----------5
B-----------5
G-9-7-----5
D----10-7/7
A---------x
E---------x

Im trying to tell which pentatonic scale this phrase is of? Is it made up of an E minor or C major pentatonic scale. I captured the notes of the phrase and it is E D C A. So basically when I start on the E note I walk down the E minor scale or C major scale and land on the A note and decide to play the an A minor chord.

E minor pentatonic does not have a C note, therefore...
