diminished scale is symmetric. it has 4 major chords within itself and 4 minor chords. use those minors or majors as u like. :)

The trick part of the diminished cycling, is that the lines can be used interchangeably for any of the dominant chords in the cycle. You could try it over other applications involving dominants or altered dominants ( minor ii V or major ii V static jams ) etc but all the lines discussed would work for A7, C7, Eb7 or Gb7. Keys to play would be D/Bm, F/Dm, Ab/Fm, and B/G#m however you want, in any combo or order ( Pat used the dorian or "minor material" nomenclature. It could have been any mode from those keys) You could calculate the sub keys from any dominant set, there are only a couple due to the symmetrical nature of the idea. Bb7, Db7, E7, G7 would be played over by Eb/Cm, Gb/Ebm, A/F#m, C/Am in any combo you want. The last set is B7, D7, F7 and Ab7, their sub keys would be E/C#m, G/Em, Bb/Gm, and Db/Bbm in any order or combo you want. One other note, using this stuff over regular dominants is a bit "outside" as you are insinuating a huge bevy of alterations and interesting chords, but can be harnessed to produce some hilarious Blues, Funk and country lines outside of a jazz conttext.

I think it's his diminished cycle stuff. He views the altered or regular 7 in the same light as a diminished then applies the cycle. It gives you substitutes. You can attempt to substitute any chord triad or arp in the base key as well and get the same results. Heres the idea (ignore the alteration Pat uses it could be anything or none) .... A7 is from the key of D ( II Dorian Em7 lines ) diminished cycle (plus 3 frets) = C7. It's from from the Key F ( II Dorian Gm7 lines ) diminished cycle (plus 3) = Eb7 is from the Key Ab ( II Dorian Bbm7) diminished cycle(plus 3 ) = Gb7 Key B ( II Dorian = Dbm7).

Em (natural minor of course) = A Dorian. Gm = A Locrian. Dm = A Phrygian. Bbm I'm not sure about.... it sounds good though. There are tons of other things you could play over A7#5, Phrygian dominant is one I'm partial to. Thing is, you don't want to have to think about this stuff while improvising over chord changes. Study it, but don't limit yourself with it. ALWAYS trust your ear

I listen to Mr. Martino all the time, yet never learned a lick of his.To me he is all about the concept. Notice when he repeats the exercise it's a different phrase.That's him kinda saying "this is my way to play the concept, now use your own minor chord licks to do your version". I like to resolve the chord as well. In this case I'm thinking A7#5 is the V chord of Dm. So it's fun to try playing Bbm material resolving into Dm stuff then Dbm,Em and Gm going into Dm and so on. That's a lot of stuff! My favorite example of this type of thinking is taking two major triads and stacking one a whole step apart above the other. So let's say a D triad on top of a C triad. The C = C E G , while the D = D F# A. The D is a 9, the F# is #11, and A is 13, in relation to the root ( C ). So just by playing a D triad over a C triad you create a Cmaj9#1113th chord. Keeping it simple is the key. This video proves Pat thinks this way. But his lines and the feel OMG he's special!

It becomes insanity, a pandora's box. use with some degree of moderation, I suppose, still it's so much fun to play...maybe even more fun to listen to, to hear someone play something that just makes you go, "WTF was THAT??" I love it.

yep, dominant chords are related along a diminished hub on the "color wheel", the cycle of youths. Kind of simple in a way, but what a colorful way to play on anything, especially a ii-V. So now imagine incorporating half-step above and below keys with those four we already have, you get...ALL TWELVE KEYS. Another trick i got from Liebman is that you can do "chord quality substitutions" where a Gm7 becomes ANY other mode form any other type of scale but still built on G...sideslip a half step-up
