Here's a seemingly simple question. When practicing scales /boxes which is the best method:-
1. Play from the lowest note of the box to the highest and back; or
2. Play from the lowest ROOT note of the box to the highest note then to the lowest note of the box and then back up to the lowest root.
Maybe it depends on whether you view the practice as a finger training exercise or an ear training exercise. Plus the roots would vary depending on whether you are positioning the box in its major or minor position.
Maybe I'm overthinking this.
