Arpèges v6 — release notes
What shipped in Arpèges v6: scales and modes join the arpeggios on one card, a new Type lock, 21 scales and modes, a session split, and an Android APK on request.
Software
One workshop, three tools — the new Webeleon
Webeleon is now a one-person workshop making practice software for musicians — what changed, the three tools I ship, and how I use them every week.
Practice
Scales meet arpeggios: one drill for the whole fretboard
Arpèges now deals scales and modes off the same deck as the arpeggios. Why practising the two together — not in separate sessions — is the thing that actually moves your playing.
Theory
Voice Leading in Four Parts
How to move four independent voices smoothly between chords — common-tone retention, contrary motion, and the small steps that keep a progression singable.
Software
How We Render Chords in MDX
A build note on the Webeleon blog pipeline — how authored MDX turns into brand-styled chord symbols, why we map components instead of raw HTML, and where the safety pass fits.
Practice
Building a Daily Practice Loop
A repeatable daily practice structure — a short warm-up, one focused target, and a quick review — designed to compound small gains instead of chasing marathon sessions.
Theory
The Circle of Fifths, Practically
A working musician’s tour of the circle of fifths — reading key signatures, finding closely related keys, and using the wheel to plan modulations on the fly.
