\o/z on last two.

Yah, you guys pretty much spelled it out for me there as well.


But I want to challenge you guys to figure out the chord progressions on your best melodies.

I will bet you they follow a widely used progression.

Whatever key I feel like. Although, I typically make a bass sound first, and then see which notes it sounds the best on the tonic and dominant.

I could say the same thing.. thing is I always start with A, D, E or G so I choose my key at the same time now.

It's kindof strange actually, I hear a song in my head, and it's always in the same four keys.

for no particular reasons i like playing in F#m, Am, and Dm. of course, if i'm doing a remix of a vocal track than i don't really have a choice. but yea.

Actually you do!

check out Gsnap!
Use midi to change the pitch, or if you have an effective granulizer/transposer/multiplicator, you need only select what notes are supposed to be in the track and Gsnap will note snap it for you!

I live by this plug. It's bloody awesome. http://homepages.tesco.net/~graham..../gvst/gsnap.htm

OMG. THANK GOD. I was going to post this like a few days ago, but was scared of the negative feedback... IVE BEEN DYING TO KNOW. I feel like i stay in one key in every song i create. Its getting on my nerves because the sound is very dark and deep. I am happy to see some opinions to help me

Hmm me I'm usually a Dm, Eb m,Fm guy. Like most of you guys..minor keys kick ass! But umm some majors are alright to. I figure G major is the best. But yeah G and A are mostly like...like of epic keys...right?

Ive been trying to pick a key that i like and i dont know..

My biggest problem is making Pads in the backround that give it the movement... Just really cant put chords together i guess in a nice fashion

Right now i believe i am in Emaj
