    Someone asked for numerals so here they are for everyone:
    1. i bVI
    2. i7 iv7sus2 iv
    3. I V/iii iii V
    4. i iv
    5. i bVII bVI (add a V to get one of the most common “sad” chord progressions ever)
    6. i viio iio i (the diminished chords that are a third apart share two common tones, if you add another minor third you get a fully diminished seventh chord which is actually 4 different chords at the same time. E.g. C Eb Gb A is Co7, Ebo7, Gbo7, and Ao7 all in one go, so if you start at any point in the chord you can move up and down freely and play any of the four chords while mostly retaining the same harmonic function).
    7. i i6/4* i
    8. i bII (The nu metal chord. Or Flamenco depending on your background)
    9. i bVI IV
    10. isus2 bVI iv viio7 (The F#o7 is a iio but it is also an Ebo7 (see above) which is a the leading tone of E. For this reason I’ve called it Eb since it has a dominant function in this progression, whereas strictly speaking the two chord is a pre-dominant function).
    *6/4 as in second inversion, ic for those of you who learned that way.

    I'm confused as to what key signature this chord progression would be?
    No matter what signature I set my FL Studio up with, it shows the B note
    is not in key. Every other note makes sense. I'm still learning theory 🤔

    • @damousx6860
      @damousx6860 9 месяцев назад

      There is probably a scale for that but it’ll be niche.
      Just know that going from a Major down a half step to another Major works well.
      If I had to pick a scale for it, it would be the chord you decided to go half a step down to, once you do that, everything is relatively normal until you loop from the start again

    This comment will probably be deleted because of it's clarity but, can't help it - these are fact. I'm sure this individual is an awesome producer but, the amount if comic relief was absolutely OVERKILL. The number of false starts caused me to avoid this video content all together. I will say, I feel the creator has an iconic idea towards building followers, and the free MIDI pack (which I did not -go down load) is absolutely generous. It's my hope that the producers will take heed to this comment - in the fine hops of improving video content for the future.

There's some good info, but god I wish these RUclipsrs would stop trying to be entertaining in this way. It's not entertaining, ... it's cringe worthy.

    Please tell me when making a song why the instrumental melody and the vocal melody and different like in K-pop?🤔I mean is it important that they should be different from each other? If not then why I hear in every song that the instrumental melody is different from vocal melody please clarify that and how to make beats when I already made the vocal melody. Sorry I don't know the technical terms so that's why I'm asking...

    Learn open chord voicing and tri-tones, suspended/diminished chords. Also, you want a downward progression to create dark feelings. Scales dont have happy or sad, the creativity is what creates the emotions. That's how you create darkness.
