Speed Demon — Forming New Playing Patterns and Unlocking Intervallic Logic

For years, contemporary instrumentalists have been trapped by visual geometry. Fingers default to the same predictable scale boxes, familiar arpeggio grips, and step-wise linear runs that look neat on the instrument but sound completely uninspired to the listener. Speed Demon changes that by introducing a rigorous, non-linear mathematical permutation system heavily inspired by the legendary jazz educator Charlie Banacos.

By anchoring an unwavering pivot root note (“1”) and relentlessly scrambling the surrounding scale degrees through wide, angular jumps and directional waves, the visual illusions of your instrument dissolve. This course systematically uncovers your technical blind spots and replaces them with an iron-clad, physical map under your fingers.

Seven Levels of Advanced Harmonic and Structural Density

This course spans seven distinct structural layers, systematically pushing your technique through increasing levels of complexity:

Level 1: Diatonic Major Core. Grounds your technique inside the universal major scale template, establishing the initial physical grid.
Level 2: Melodic Minor Shift. Lowers the 3rd scale step to compress your layout and expand modern jazz options over altered dominants.
Level 3: Augmented Second Stretch. Navigates the wide, irregular three-semitone gap of the Harmonic Minor scale at blistering tempos.
Level 4: Hybrid Dark Layer. Blends a bright major triad with a dark minor sixth, challenging your muscle-memory adaptability.
Level 5: Octatonic Interlock. Symmetrical eight-tone diminished layout that completely shifts traditional numbered scale-degree index assumptions.
Level 6: Floating Grid. Symmetrical six-tone Whole Tone profiles that eliminate perfect fourths and fifths, creating smooth, anchorless terrain.
Level 7: Blues Grid – Another six note scale with incredible potential because it is based by key not by chord.

The Banacos Legacy: Built-In 3-Note Pickups

True to the pedagogical philosophy of Charlie Banacos, these exercises are built for metric flexibility and real-world improvisation. Every key signature utilizes an intentional 3-note pickup structure (consisting of an eighth-note rest followed by the last three notes of the pattern) leading directly into the core pattern. This layout forces you to navigate off-beat phrasing, maintain rock-solid rhythm, and accent smoothly across the bar line at high velocities.

How to Use This Course

The practice routine demands absolute cognitive engagement. Dedicate 15 minutes, twice a day, to these exercises. This tightly focused 30 minutes is enough to make profound progress without physical burnout. Work through every pattern across all 12 keys following the strict Circle of 5ths order, training your ears to achieve perfect key retention against the unwavering root anchor.

Example of a Blues Scale in Bb

This example uses a Bb Blues scale and repeats the 2nd measure four times. There are midifiles included that play the 2nd measure 2X or just the single 2 measure one time. This gives you a lot of flexibility. Because you can use a DAW such as Garage Band you can change the type of instrument playing the midi file and also the feel. i.e. making it a swing or straight eighth rhythm.

Keep in mind this is one page of 6 because the sequence is started on all notes of the scale. This gives you a massive amount of examples to get your blues chops screaming fast! If your reading skills are not great memorize the pattern A-M. Start slow, there are midi files so you can control the tempo at all times.

Frequently Asked Questions

I picked up your speed demon course. I am wondering about daily practice routine. I would think to be systematic and cover the entire instrument for phase 1:

1. play through the exercise at a slow tempo with a drone and play along with the midi file. start with ionian. work out the fingerings and picking. Find gaps and problems and fix those in isolation.
2. cycle through the 7 3NPS positions
3. cycle through the 7 modes of the current key
4. cycle keys

Do I have this correct?

Yes that seems like a good approach. I didn’t mention in the book that articulation can also be applied. Like hammer ons, pulloffs or slides on a guitar or tonguing on a wind instrument etc. That said, many people that play fast have very little articulation unless it allows them to play the line faster. Blues guitarists commonly have hammer ons, pulloffs or slides to make a line easier to play.

So take that into consideration but overall start slow figure out how you want to play the line then start speeding it up. One thing you will probably find is as you speed up some of the ways you play something might not work so you will have to adjust along the way

Your productivity always amazes me! Do you think that this course would work well for bass too?

Yes I think it is important for bass players to read treble clef because if you are asked to play the melody to a piece of music it is often given to you in treble clef. I was thinking about making a bass clef version but just short on time right now. If you get the treble clef version I’ll send you the bass clef for free once I make it and of course that is “IF” I make it. Can’t promise right now :)

Why does this course engrave a repeat sign starting at the second bar instead of the first?

This mirrors Charlie Banacos’ exact layout rules. The first measure functions as a 3-note pickup to establish the tempo and physical trajectory off the downbeat. The second measure contains the core four-note speed demon pattern, which repeats exactly 4 times before the double-sided repeat signs move your hands to the next key signature along the wheel.

I don’t know if I have two 15 minutes slots everyday to practice Speed Demon. Do you have any recommendations for someone in my situation?

One of the best things you can do is mental practice. Charlie Banacos always told me to do as much mental practice as I can. You don’t need your instrument you just need to imagine the instrument in your mind and in this case practice the melodies. You are basically playing your instrument in your mind so here are some specifics:

1. Figure out the fingerings for the melody and as you practice move your fingers in the exact order. If you play an string instrument also figure out the picking, bowing etc… So you need to sync up both hands in your mind.
2.You will get the most out of this type of practice if you can actually hear the melody in your head. This obviously requires ear training ability so you need to develop not only your ability to hear the melody but be able to prove it by singing the melody.
3. 15 minutes of mental practicing will totally tire you out so I’d start with 5 minutes and work up from there.
4. Mental practicing as you go to bed is probably the best way to fall asleep. I do it every night and I’m luckly to get 10 or 15 minutes in before I’m sound asleep.
5. Understanding “Long Line Rhythm” is an important concept when working on your ability to play fast. In the macro sense as an analogy if you now where you are going you will get there quicker. When we apply that to music have a beginning point and an end point in mind helps your mind to not concentrate on every note but on where it is starting and ending.
6. The Physiological aspect of your interface with your instrument is crucial to gaining speed and accuracy. If you are a guitar player I lay out a whole course of study in the “Guitar Physiology and Technique” but for any instrument the overall playing method is the same. Ergonomic movement, no tension anywhere in your body, correct posture and keeping your fingers close to the frets, pads or keyboard. Also the concept that bigger muscles move smaller muscles. If you find that your hand or wrist hurt try incorporating your forearm into your movements. Easier said than done but it can make the difference between quitting music and continuing to play.

So use these directions and you will have amazing progress. But remember, like anything you practice, it takes time to get good at it. But you should find within a week or so you will see progress. I often give this idea to my students where I’d give them a hard melody and have them go home for a week and practice it, but only in their head. Then when they came for their next lesson I’d had them play it for the first time on their instrument. Many reported that they could play the melody faster than anything they had ever played and they could recall it weeks later so it was deeply embedded. Mental practicing is powerful stuff and all the great musicians I know do it everyday!!

I’m a beginner. Can I dive straight into Level 5 Symmetrical Diminished or Level 6 Whole Tone?

It is highly recommended that you master the levels in sequential order. Symmetrical layouts completely alter your finger placement choices because they break away from traditional seven-note major scale spacing. Level 1 Major and Level 2 Melodic Minor build the foundational muscle memory and relative pitch strength required to navigate those advanced grids safely. That said, if you are a more advanced player or let’s say just a blues player and that is all you want to play then by all means jump right to what interests you the most or fits into your style.

Why are there no audio mp3 play-alongs included in this version of the book?

By providing high-fidelity, unfolded Type-1 standard MIDI files instead of static audio tracks, you gain total freedom. You can import these custom MIDI patterns directly into any DAW or software sampler (like Kontakt) to instantly pick your own favorite instrument sounds, apply custom swing adjustments, and scale the playback speed to any tempo that fits your immediate practice needs. I should also mention there are a ton of midi to mp3 conversion programs out there so if you prefer an mp3 then they are pretty easy to make. Just remember it will be at one tempo only so you would have to make multiple mp3s to slowly speed up the lines.

Does this book include guitar tablature staves underneath the standard music notation?

No. This course is strictly note and interval-agnostic, using clean treble-clef notation to ensure it functions perfectly for guitarists, pianists, saxophonists, and violinists alike. Removing specific instrument finger-shapes forces you to learn the actual layout of the pitches across your entire instrument, effectively shattering your reliance on visual geometric box patterns. That said, I certainly can understand if you seldom have to sight read on the guitar you will have difficulty getting started with this course. I would still recommend you get the course and take time to figure out and memorize each melody. They are short so it should take too long to get it into your memory. Then start using the 4x midi files and build from there. It will work it just takes a little extra time for you to memorize each melodic line

Electronic Music Essentials

Electronic Music Essentials is a reference book for students who want to find BASIC information on various types of gear associated with electronic music. It is not meant as a detailed study of any of the equipment listed below. Each topic below is explained in easy to understand language, in many cases settings on gear for live and studio use is given to produce different effects.

A list of current rackmount, software and pedal gear that I recommend is given for each device. Again, if you know all the gear listed below and how it all operates this is NOT the course for you. This course is meant for students who want to find out basic information on the topics below which is presented in easy to understand language with the least amount of “letters” and “numbers” that require higher knowledge on acoustics, electrical engineering etc… The topics covered include:

Delays.
Compressors and Limiters.
Equalizers.
Filter Effects.
Exciter.
Reverbs.
Noise Gate.
Loopers.
Pitch Shifting.
Synthesis.
Reverbs.
Ring Modulator.

Basic Directions for VCVRack and MIRack programs.

VCVRack and MIRack

Many of the topics listed above have audio examples that can be played using two FREE programs that you need to download separately and install on your computer (Mac or Windows) or smart device i.e. iphone/ipad. VCVRack and MIRack are the two programs to use. I’ve included multiple examples of many of the effects listed above so that you can not only hear audio examples but use them in composing, recording or live performance.

VCVRack works with both Mac and Windows and MIRack works with Iphone and Ipad only. Again, I’ve include many “patches” for these two programs that demonstrate the sound of various equipment as well as other patches. Some of the possible uses of these two programs are:

Hearing the sounds generated by various equipment effects and synthesizer gear.
Using MIDI Controllers to play various sounds for your audio productions both in the studio and live performance.
Using your instrument to play sounds found in VCVRack or MIRack via a Digital Audio Interface (you need to buy a Digital Audio Interface in order to do this! But there are many cheap ones nowadays.).
Use VCVRack as a stereo recorder or even multi-track recording. Again requires a Digital Audio Interface.
Create graphic videos of your audio input to post on youtube or use at your live gigs.
Many patches in VCVRack and MIRack include a keyboard so you can play sounds directly.

Additional Resources

I’ve also included in this downloadable package various help files to further educate you on electronic music or provide you with quick access to additional resources. These include:

Thousands of samples to be used with various modules that require samples such a granulators and sample based effects units.
A course on learning subtractive synthesis.
Plug-ins folder for the VCVRack examples which will save you tons of time getting started.
MIRack examples of many effects units, synthesizers, sequencers and other interesting sounds.
Basic directions for installing VCVRack are found on the last few pages of the “Electronic Music Essentials” book.

What people are saying:

I used an earlier edition of this book back when Bruce taught the “Effects Applications in Live Performance Class” at Berklee College of Music.” A really valuable resource for quick basic knowledge on how to use various effects units and understanding the overall picture of the resources that a contemporary musician needs to know to function in contemporary music. J. Ogland

I used this book in the “Electronic Music Ensemble” that professor Arnold used at Montclair State University. I was very “green” on understanding even the fundamentals of electronic music and this book really helped me to get the big picture. It also turned me on the VCVRack and MIRack which has saved me thousands of dollars. I can now create professional sounding recordings with state of the art sounds. Awesome!!. J. Deiter

In my opinion this is a must own book for any contemporary musician. You will be called on to used much of the equipment found in this book and you need basic knowledge on what it does and how to operate it. It will also help you immensely if you are in a studio situation where you are not happy with your sound and through the knowledge contained in this book you can have an intelligent conversation with the engineer on how you might fix your sound.

The Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence Series is a series of books on Pitch Class Set Improvisation more specifically they look at 44 different two triad pairs or two trichord pairs that are great to play as a scale or create other patterns for improvisation.

These Pitch Class Set Improvisation books include treble and bass clef exercises and can be purchased as individual books or as a bundle. These books are great for learning advanced improvisational ideas but they are also excellent for ear training and sight singing to improve your key retention. You do not need to start from the beginning of this series to use it.

Each book looks at an interesting two triad pair or two trichord pair that I have used in my compositions and improvisation. You can hear some of the application of these combinations by exploring the Recordings Section of this website. You can find a detailed list of the three note pairs that I’ve used by checking out the Bruce Arnold Composition Compilation. By following the links below to each book you can hear and see examples from each course. Click on book cover to hear examples or follow the highlighted links for each volume.

Each two triad pair course also includes 12 MetroDrone® MP3s so that you can hear each exercise in the correct key center. There are also multiple exercises that apply the three note pairs to technical and musical situations. Each course has a PDF that gives you background on each combination and shows you how to apply these ideas to various chord types in all keys.

Every combination has its strong points and through the years of using these combinations you find out crucial information that will save you years of research. This series is unique and comprehensive, there is no other series like this currently available.

Many students don’t realize the importance of sight singing the exercises found in the books below. First, these wouldn’t be the first books I would recommend for sight singing because they are incredible difficult but will greatly increase your key retention ability because of the nature of these two triad pairs or two trichord pairs.

All books in this series can be used to tackle specific problems that occur in the development of your ear training ability. Here is an example: Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence V19B covers two major triads a whole step apart.

Because they are major triads it is often hard for a student to hear these two triads in the over key center.They usually have the problem that they want to hear one or both of the triads in their own key centers. By singing through the exercises presented in the over key center you develop the ability to stay in a key center when you are hearing two major triads built on any degree.

Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence Series: A Closer Look

The numbers listed after each title refer to the pitch class set used to form the 2 three note pairs. A number like 037 refers to the intervals found in each 3 note group. These three note combinations are two triad pairs but each three note group is also referred to as a trichord. The two triad pairs in the 037-037 series concentrate on traditional major and minor triads and is an excellent place to start with this series.

You will hear the 037-037 combinations used extensively in all styles of music and can really interject new life into your improvisations. Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence V21A Two Triad Pair is also highly recommended because it looks at a new way of combining a Blues Scale into two trichords. That said, all combinations will give you very intriguing and give you one aspect of Pitch Class Set Improvisation and shouldn’t be overlooked.

Each book in the Harmonic and Melodic Equivalence Series contains over 300 pages of exercises along with extensive information on how each combination works with all chords in all keys as well as lists showing which scales contains the 2 three note pair combinations. A three page section on how to apply these trichord pairs to various practice regimens is also included. If you click on the book cover image for any book or follow the links you will be able to hear and see examples for each course.

A special note for ear training students. All the trichord combinations found in this series are excellent for sight singing and will seriously improve your key retention which is crucial to mastering Two Note Ear Training and ultimately Hearing Chord Progressions.
