Nice tip!

Also, archive.org has tons of MIDI files. This pack, for example, has almost 170 thousand files.

is that just chords

beto@lemmy.studio · 1 pts · 3y

It's probably a bit of everything: chords, songs, drums

Does it have diminished chords? Augmented chords? add9 chords? Slash chords? Altered chords?

it has allllll the chords

I dunno, I have always liked making my own progressions. These packs defeat the purpose of that.

i use them as inspiration

favrion@waveform.social · 1 pts · 3y (1 reply)

Okay, that's different then, rather than using prepackaged chord progressions.

jackpot@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 3y

yeah chord progressions are for practicing melodies, inspiration, taking in ideas. i wouldnt make a song with prepacked chords unless i had a really good reason why

Agreed. If you really want to pay money for chords get Scaler 2 or something. Still unnecessary but I do enjoy it for inspiration and studying.
