Advice on learning progression and what to do 'next'

My attitude to theory is more curiosity that anything else TBH.

I don't think it's necessary to know it all, but there's always the old cliché "no one ever became a worse player by learning some theory".

But from my POV I just enjoy knowing why things work.  It's the same for everything in my life not just music, I just like knowing thy WHY of everything.

Scaler is like a real-time music theory encyclopaedia and it's getting quite smart, and it's also fun to play around with. Once you have settled on some chords and melody notes, you can move over to your favourite instruments and start working on an arrangement. You can find it at Plugin Boutique for £35 if you ever need to expand on your theoretical knowledge.

I just found Scaler 2 for £29 on their site, they also offer a bundle with 3 courses on how to use it and some other stuff for £59 all in.

I cam back to theFB to search for opinions on it, and found your post

Do you think it's worth paying for the extra coursess?
