having way too much fun with re-converting myself. thanks for sponsoring.
this video but without me talking: • basic harmony.. syntho...
important disclaimer to all my perfect pitch fellows:
After making the song and video I realized the Master pitch wheel was turned up 2 semi-tones. Meaning that the song is in D major, but the notes shown are in C major... Everything in the video is correct interval-wise. But if you say, wanted to play along, you would have to transpose it.
I just figured it would be even more confusing if I said "D major" while the notes shown were not.
all the best!

"Trial and error
And have a nice day"
this hit so hard wtf
The "it's alright" part hit even harder IMHO.
But not nearly as much as "if you're new to this, it can be nice to start"
"Me on the root note"
wait you're here too???

It's true, I'm just rocking to the beat😂
A good number of them are applicable in any Daw or notation software, especially ones like this about basic concepts of harmony. Which I why I follow because I’m not paying for something like FL Studio
0:50 "if you're new to this it can be nice to start" was so rhythmically on point it had me thinking you were gonna rap the rest of the tutorial :D
SAME BRO
It just makes me mad that he constantly switches from rhythmic to just normal talking
i had to rewatch this part multiple times cuz it sounds so awesome
Omg i literally had to delete my comment saying the same thing because I found this comment 😭

“Without going Jacob Collier” 😂😂😂😂
bro did not have to do my boy jacob like that :(
bro do be using 30 different harmonies

The shades crazy lol
0:50 "If you're new to this, it can be nice to start-"
It sounds so perfectly in sync with the music it's beautiful
I thought he was gonna start rapping to the melody while explaining it
sounded like something straight out of a dhmis song
Also the "Me on the root notes" at 0:56

there was a sponsor?

@@dyslexicsoap7605late stage capitalism moment
Yeah I completly agree
Oh no@@ripadblock
tutorial rap is getting into a whole new level
I’ve never seen someone make learning technical production skills SO ENTERTAINING
0:51 that's some bars right there
ain’t no way i found you again 💀
I love when things are synced to a song even when they really don't have to be. It makes it so much more pleasant to listen to.
1:31 Love the hidden message ‘Collier is talented but his music is hard to listen to’ so true!
A bit of theory, The Third interval is the most important note in any chord. It is literally the note that brings out the quality of the chord I.E making it a Major or Minor chord! In some Jazz chord voicings, some remove the 5th and opt for other notes instead.
That's why in classical Harmony, Parallel 5ths (two 5th intervals played side by side) is usually frowned upon, because it gives out a more ambiguous and unclear quality compared to others using other intervals.
voicing is also a concern
5th harmonies, after all, are "perfect intervals" so they tend to blend in more with everything else
and on the other hand we have power chords being played on Electric Guitars which always have a fifth lol
tell it to Nirvana 😅
Goat comment
The problem is not they are ambiguous, is that they "blend" so you lose the two (or more) voices singing together effect. They can be use as final stable chord, just not in counterpoint melodies.
parallel fifths n such are only important when you write counterpoint, i.e. 2 or more melodies at the same time. parallel fifths and octaves make the two melodies sound too similar and homogenous, thereby losing their individuality. :D
im clueless on this topic yet i still clicked on this video and watched to the end because somehow u are able to draw in a lot of ppl like me easily.. so whatever ur doing dont stop and please continue making more videos in this format because these are really fun to watch for anyone
thank you!!!

For anyone who is learning about this for the first time, congrats, you just took your first step out of "production" and into "music."
wtf does that mean
@@shadowchasernqli think they're tryna hate but im not sure
@@shadowchasernqlit's that elitist "music production is not real music-making" mindset that every musician forced to play piano for 14 years by their rich parents has
@@Stilwuf well ya production by definition isn't music-making, you're helping someone else make music (unless you're writing the song for them), so his point stands.
@@shadowchasernql what? Production is short for "music production" in these cases. If i produce an EDM song on my laptop, i dont help anyone make a song but me.
how do you fit a sponsor into a 1:40 video and still have it be good?
Theres a sponsor?

@@lumi7610 Yea…
Sorta, it’s at 0:51, I think.
drives me mad that you display this entire video as if the song was in C major but it's in D major
After making the song+vid I realized the master pitch wheel was turned up two semi-tones. But the recorded ones still display a C Major song.. so figured it as a lil easter egg for the ones with great ears rather than re-recording
@@synthet7😱
I was about to comment this LOL
How did you figure it out mate? You must have perfect pitch? Or can you train yourself to this degree that you can tell the scale by listening to the audio?
@@kamra702 i have absolute pitch
No, really, what the actual heck. This guy speaks in 🎶 .
I love it so much.
thx for making all these amazing vids
Why hello there! Coincidence seeing you here
1:13 NOT THE BABY LUIGI TRACK LMAOOOO😭😭💀
Your ears will definitely take you a long way. Just did my first-ever Celtic lullaby for an editing client and those harmonies went way beyond your natural minor scale-which was also a first for me. It's RIDICULOUSLY fun and awesome to see what experimentation will get you.
nice new way to teach people about your topics with "in-time talking". Keep it going my man, youre helping me and everyone else alot ❤
This video made me so happy! It’s a joy that I haven’t felt in a long time. Thank you! I’ll be sure to check out more of them.
I didn't know it was possible to have background music in a video that teaches you how to make music
Absolutely my favourite of these videos so far! Such a banger, such nice chords, even a mention of Jacob Collier! Love it!
your flow is immaculate
Listening and watching your videos is always such a bop! Thank you for making these tutorials!
0:27 that "awful" has a name - they are notes on the whole tone scale. the way you create it is by essentially stacking major thirds on top of one another, then split each third into two halves... until you get yourself 6 equally spaced notes. whole tone scale feels eerie but that's one good thing to know! it's all about what kind of feeling you want to create.
as to why that major third + minor third sounded so good? it all comes down to the harmonic series. frequencies that are a fifth apart vibrate nicely with each other, and so do major thirds, because they appear early on in the harmonic series (perfect fifth being the 3rd harmonic and major third being the 5th). major third + minor third approximates the perfect fifth (equivalent under twelve tone equal temperament), and so you hear the five harmonics at once - THAT'S the work of a major triad, and that's surely going to sound nice ;)
TLDR fifths are awesome and major triad is divine and did i mention i f**king love circle of fifths
I think that the harmonic series is not a universal ideal of aesthetic. It's more about cultural conditioning. I actually think just intonation sounds out of tune.
@@lordlouckster2315 didn't know the term "just intonation" -- but yes, i do think equal temperament conditions our ears to perceive harmonic series as off-tune. i don't deny the role of culture in our judgment, though i suppose it is fair to say that harmonic series is one theory of why we like certain intervals worth mentioning ^^
(i don't go to a conservatory or study music very seriously so my comment might have been grossly wrong, sorry. i just wanted to explain why i personally liked circle of fifths so much and the theory may have come off as overgeneralizing)
You are a genius and it's such a pleasure to see you grow!
This is easily best music tutorial channel, i always get excited to try all of ur tips, I don’t often feel excited after a tutorial. Your editing is nice and clean. The music is perfect for this kind of video. They’re entertaining too, I can see myself rewatching this.
"The minor third however, is three steps up." 0:15
"It’s alright." 0:31
"Chord change!" 0:50
"If you’re new to this, it can be nice to start" 0:51
"Me on the root notes:" 0:56
"Just singing the exact same ones." 1:16
"Now theory is great, but your ears will really get you a long way here." 1:33
"Just playing around. What note gives what feel?" 1:36
"Trial and error, and have a nice day." 1:38
bro this is so calming to watch, everything just flows
your samples you use for your examples always feels so happy and fun fr. So danceable
synthet is if not, one of the best and my favorite producer. teaching us the basics of producing good music.
I loved how the sponsor part goes with the music instead of interrupting the video
Now that is quality.
i dont even do music but i love how you edit your videos blending your speech to the music/tutorial
As someone with the perfect pitch, the sequence at 0:58 made me want to throw myself out my window
Your tutorials are something I needed for a LONG TIME!
0:36 Absolutely hurts me that he says C Major but the song closer to in D Major lol
This video is literally a masterpiece. The production quality is just incredible.
01:12 reminds me of Rayman haha
This was one of your better videos. I mean in the sense of how you're educating us. You're becoming a better teacher! Way to go.
i like this guy editing
this had no reason to go so hard. i wish all tutorials were like this absolute vibe.
i see your lil secret message at 1:31 and agree wholeheartedly ;o)
DUDE I REALLY Love How This Whole Video Is Basically A Song, It's A Musical! And It's In Rhythm! Awesome! It Makes Your Videos More Fun!
I love this 0:30 I keep replaying it
ear candy
Your videos are so smooth and satisfying my god
He knows music theory. Playing D major snippets and explaining fifth. Well done.
HOLYYY! I was struggling to make some harmony and this video popped up just in timeee:000! Thank you so much for this!
Babe wake up, new synthet just dropped
This is genuinely the best way anyone the world could have explained this to me, thank YOU! ❤❤
thank you!!!!
This is beautiful to hear
you have an exceptional ability to captivate and educate!
0:29 sounds so good!
i like how the examples are baked into the background music
I suck at harmony and this really helps, thanks
Oh I don't even produce and just love listening to you explaining these things and to your tunes! As an amateur singer, coming up with melodies was always so hard for me. Sometimes, I would find some very cool ones, sometimes, they would be off-key flops from the start. Seeing you create them in an almost natural way as if you've never done something else is just next level cool for me. I hope you will create more videos and songs for a loooong time to come. 💕
"baby luigi" 😭
This is the only Fl Studio tutorial guy who makes videos short, simple and understandable
0:58 this sounds so good, help- 💀
My guy actually speaks in 🎵🎶
This video was so audibly pleasing.
SO GOOOD
Thanks for the tutorial, Synthet. I'll use them more often.
Let’s go new video!
The one time where it adds in a UA-cam video sounds absolutely fantastic As well as me actually enjoying watching them.
1 minute ago is scrumptious
i'm going to touch you
30 minutes ago is outright unbelievable!
I don't even use fl studio and these are super useful videos, that's how you know you've made a good tutorial
My favorite interval to add to notes in melodies is an octave. It adds more power than any other interval and it also sounds a little threatening usually.
This is a video I've needed for ever. This helps me so much im almost in tears
what was ur instrumental channel called ?

Straight to my favorites list!!
i would like to thank you with every part of my entire soul for making these videos, they single-handedly give me inspiration and make me open up FL 🙏
Singing your script is such a nice choice on your end. Just loving it
The rhythm in your speech is fantastic! :D
This is kinda helpful to me. I'm thinking of making music for myself only. But when it's the time, I'll be doing it.
Also this is the first time someone playing music WHILE teaching the audience how to do it.
Keep doing it mate
This is so satisfying that I wanna listen to it even more
this was the funnest tutorial to ever watch 👍
I'm not even interested on making music but I love the way you show how it's mathematic but also very emotionnal and versatile
You make learning so much fun.
I watch these videos just for the production and music since I play acoustically. Can't get enough of these!
I rewatch this video everytime due to the music and the fact that I learn something new everyday, thank you champ.
wow this is the best tutorial video ever
No it isn't.
The best music production/FL Studio content creator.
A UA-cam video that explains so much within two minutes. I love it.
Looking at this and remembering everything, like I had a single music instrument in my arms in my life
this type of video's are so fun and creative keep it up!
ive always tried making harmony's note without even knowing this, at first it does sound kinda good but still feels a little bit wrong, now after discovering this video i can maximize it, thx!
watching your videos really give me more motivation to work on music
Why'd you make it so whimsical and fun i love it
i love these videos, they're always so fun
This is so satisfying to watch
i completely love these videos they really help me in fl studio
I love these types of sponsors.
