Thanks for showing us your method man, this is sort of like counterpoint, but mainly focuses on basic harmony lead.

Thanks for the comment, Chardin! I just tried what you asked, but I don't think my result is video-worthy. Even with chords C,G,F or others, the principle remains exactly the same, although sometimes you'll find an urge to add a high C during the F chords. It's as easy as clicking on each note to see if it makes a good melody, then selecting and boosting.

0:05 *turns up volume* 0:55 *has heart attack, turns down volume* 1:15 *turns up volume again* 1:54 *learns to speak French* I like the second method best. I'm not too big on combining melodies to form chords. What I usually do is come up with the chord progression first and center the melody around the tone caused by the chord progression. When I do make the melody first, I concentrate on the notes that give the most power(usually the first note in a continuous series or the highest...

Love your vids! Keep it up man, you keep it interesting!

Thank you, Khrene! I discovered it by myself, these days, on my PC! Very useful procedure.

It's from Reaktor 5. It's called "Guitar" as a "Steampipe" instrument.

Thanks, D, I wasn't sure if it was just my speakers. Will correct for next time.

loving ure tuts

Velocity represents (typically) the strength of a note. However, NOT ALL instruments will be set up to handle velocity in the same way. Velocity could, in some situations control a filter's Freq, or (in most guitars) control the Decay of the signal (so soft notes become palm-mutes) Look for modifiers that say "vel" or "sensitivity" as they typically reflect how much change the velocity will bring to the sound. Values of 0 typically will dismiss velocity and make all notes equal.

Thank you for this great video good sir!

incredibly helpful tut, much appreciated bro :)

Great video, dude

Nice tutorial! Thanks for it, I'll share it!

Very helpful. Thanks!

It's all about velocity! I have been playing guitar for about 13 years now, and it helps to understand the way the variance in strength in an arpeggio will create more interesting rhythmic structures. Hard to explain in text though. I did some really nice work with this "Guitar" patch (The one in Steampipe) in part 1 of "Murphy's Law Symphony".

nice one thank u, teached me some new tricks!

i completely second that!

Sweet, thanks.

awesome

good stuff... i like that

Cracking sound..

good looks

good job

OMG, 10 honors!

hey man wat vst are you using for that guitar.... itsn nice very goo tut 2 !!

Good question.

cool!! ''good''

Ace, what command do you enter to hear just the selected (in red) notes? Nice work!

Ok, but fly me out to come visit when you get famous!

you didn't show us any theory behind it.... you didn't tell us what kinds of chords and how they worked together????

RIP Daniel aka AcePincter

VST called Reaktor 5. Not free though.

hey nice tutorial , thanks . But I was wondering how to get the guitar you're using in the video ? plz

question: whats up with your piano roll? i noticed that the darker note lines are not in line with black notes on the keys. is that some sort of setting within FL? thanks.

how do you get the piano roll to show the dark notes on the grid area?

Hey.... Is there a soundfont which sounds more or less like Reaktor 5???

hey where can I find the guitar you're using in this tutorial ?

@TheEliasMontalvo in the options of the piano roll go to help hit ghost channels

I have reaktor 5 but I can't get it to work with FL Studio... any suggestions?

pads in uplifting trance serve mostly for the feel. in my humble opinion, when you write your melodies, you should have already determined the chord progression, from there is simply deciding how to transit from chord to chord, there are various techniques to do that. why don't you take a look at FLipside?

ok see im trying to make a bridge out of a Bb F C7 and G7 chords but i dont know what i should do to make the bridge like combinations or maybe an rpegio

...note), and I make a chord that starts at each power note and consists of that note at a different octave.

He didn't, he just turned up the volume on the notes he selected to make them stand out from the chord

how did you get the reactor 5 into your fl studio? i'd really appreciate the help...

sadly why he doesn't upload anymore , Don't let people drive drunk and report anyone u think is please

***Hey sphincter***

can I use that melodie for my beat ?

lol. a sphincter u crack me up

Dude, are you a genius? just wondering u must be a very rich guy...

Only because the New Zealand Category has such little activity!

You owe me a hearing aid!

CAN I USE THIS RIFF?

Harmonic minor?

check out my channel for more tips on how to write chords and melodies.

good job, but i think it wud of bn bettif you showd the keys on the left, cause lik im a total begginer. lol

mad confused how u get those different shades in the piano roll

@NsaneNtheNbrane Haha :-D should have read this comment first (regarding to note velocity)

you didn't "come up with that in your head" that's already a song.

dident eminem use this in one of his songs some 1 did

is this a pun?

??

@lethalevi7 lol

Thanks for this helpful vid, but sort ya fuckin volume out man lol

whatever happened to this guy

Fuckin a

Will you marry me?

That 9th chord sounds like shit to begin with, but you make it sound worse with your melody! Congrats ;-) JK, GJ

cant say this enough to you ppl out there making tutorials about sound. How can u put up a video with such a loud daw, and such a low voice. Cant hear you talk, and when i turn up to hear you, i got blated away cause FL was so loud. Its not hard to limit the shit out of your voice before you put up the video. ;)

sucks no help
