Man, why doesn’t hardly anyone teach these with a droning bass note like you said at the opening of the video? I read books, asked questions, studied theory lectures, and modes immediately made sense when someone showed me the bass note trick. Drone the low E, play E Major scale against it. Then drone it, and play A major. You immediately hear the difference between Major, and mixolydian (and so forth). But all this explaining about playing the same scale, but starting on a different note, never reaches anybody that I’ve ever seen. Once you hear it in context, it all makes sense.

A mode is the major scale but starting on a different note.
First W-W-1/2-W-W-W-1/2 is the formula for Ionian or the major scale. Play that and flatten the 7 (b7) is Mixolydian; instead sharpen the 4 (#4) for Lydian.
Now the 3 minor modes: for Dorian, it’s b3 and b7; for Aolian (Natural Minor), it’s b3/b6/b7; for Phrygian, it’s b2/b3/b6/b7.
There’s only one mode for a Diminished triad or a Minor7b5 chord which is Locrian b2/b3/b5/b6/b7. - Now, write out the 7 modes in order with their formulas. Start with one octave of each, all from the same starting note. Never refer back to the scale they are from. Use your ears!
