music video: • basic harmony.. syntho...
"synthet" on streaming services
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!
There is so much to harmony I tried to keep it simple.
it's on streaming platforms "Synthet - Harmony video" for all my mario bros
u have a stream?
❤❤❤
i'm your mario bro 🗣️🔥🔥💯💯

"Trial and error
And have a nice day"
this hit so hard wtf
The "it's alright" part hit even harder IMHO.
And the Chord Change!
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???
these videos are just such a vibe i dont even have fl studio

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
“Without going Jacob Collier” 😂😂😂😂
bro did not have to do my boy jacob like that :(
bro do be using 30 different harmonies
@@macaronandcheese18113it was certainly well deserved though lmao
@@ASCENSiON_i liked it though
The shades crazy lol
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 😭
@@nameit100itsme no you literally didnt
these videos are the only ones which i can actually watch the sponsor for. fire asf
there was a sponsor?
the sponsor doesn't even feel like I'm being advertised to, I'm just vibing

Yeah I completly agree
Oh no@@ripadblock
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
@@Yume-AW Me too yo!

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
how do you fit a sponsor into a 1:40 video and still have it be good?
Theres a sponsor?

tutorial rap is getting into a whole new level
0:51 that's some bars right there
I’ve never seen someone make learning technical production skills SO ENTERTAINING
01:12 reminds me of Rayman haha
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
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.
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!!!
Same
thx for making all these amazing vids
Why hello there! Coincidence seeing you here
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.
No, really, what the actual heck. This guy speaks in 🎶 .
I love it so much.
i see your lil secret message at 1:31 and agree wholeheartedly ;o)
I didn't know it was possible to have background music in a video that teaches you how to make music
"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
Now that is quality.
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
"baby luigi" 😭
Babe wake up, new synthet just dropped
Absolutely my favourite of these videos so far! Such a banger, such nice chords, even a mention of Jacob Collier! Love it!
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 ❤
Harmony trick: learn some basic music theory, it’s really not that difficult
I been saying this
Also

i like this guy editing
1:31 Love the hidden message ‘Collier is talented but his music is hard to listen to’ so true!
what was ur instrumental channel called ?
@synthdos
@@Sr.Hamsalot can’t find it

@@synthdos ty love ur vids sm
As someone with the perfect pitch, the sequence at 0:58 made me want to throw myself out my window
Listening and watching your videos is always such a bop! Thank you for making these tutorials!
synthet is if not, one of the best and my favorite producer. teaching us the basics of producing good music.
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.
wow this is the best tutorial video ever
your flow is immaculate
You should do a video about major sevenths
te quiero mucho
The happy birthday part kinda went hard actually
Thanks for the tutorial, Synthet. I'll use them more often.
majority of you probably just vibed with this and actually have no use for this video.
Can somebody tell me what is the chords on 1:32 ???? I wanna know so badly
Same
He knows music theory. Playing D major snippets and explaining fifth. Well done.
I love how the sound effect is in the music program 0:22
The fastest sponsor i have ever seen 😂
just do yourself a favour and read one good book on counterpoint instead of picking together information from miscellaneous sources... well, I guess that might be impossible for producers with their 0.2 sec attention span. what's with the anti-intelluctualism in music these days, anyway? I've never liked academia but at least they used to teach proper counterpoint from species to all students.
Hearing alone shouldnt be the basis here. You literally just need to know your key signatures. Then you know which third should be which (except maybe in harmonic major or borrowed chords, but if you mess with those, you should know a bit more theory anyways).
Learn the theory basics!
0:51 why did bro start rapping
0:45 that last one is a Major Sixth 💥
i dont even do music but i love how you edit your videos blending your speech to the music/tutorial
a good bass pattern would be half notes bouncing from root to 5th back and forth for a groovy feeling
The music of this video was transposed two semitones up, but it wasn't reflected in the video. For those without absolute pitch, it's fine, but for me it makes it a bit difficult to follow along...
my perfect pitch fellows!! sadly i'm not one of you. After making and recording it I realized the master pitch wheel was turned up.
Theory is just the rules that exist so you can break them. They’re easier to break if you know what they are.
Thought he was gonna start dropping some bars half way through 😭
This is the only Fl Studio tutorial guy who makes videos short, simple and understandable
How you make your voices sounds like that?
0:23 Sorry all i heard was wii rainbow road, lol
1 minute ago lol
I would really like to "go Jacob Collier" lol
bro this is so calming to watch, everything just flows
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.
DID BRO JUST USE PARALLEL FIFTHS 😡😡🤬🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡
I suck at harmony and this really helps, thanks
SO GOOOD
0:58 this sounds so good, help- 💀
Make one yellow, and make the other one blue.
Did you steal sythou’s content?
Hehe
0:36 sorry but nope it's D major
0:56 the actual notes there are B, B, E (also Am is a chord, not a note),1:06 F#, F#, B. I hope I'm not being condescending/rude while pointing this out
it's explained in the description!
Subscribed! but there’s no more :(
This video is so damm fast for my dumb brain
Im not into music production, but i still watch all your videos ♥
my singing monsters type beat
you can't sing a tutorial
*_the tutorial_*
My ears tell me this is D major and not C major. But it still sounds pretty good.
Man I envy you with great ears! I explain it in the description
@@synthet7 And I envy your great voice. It's as smooth as melted butter...
HOLYYY! I was struggling to make some harmony and this video popped up just in timeee:000! Thank you so much for this!
We remaking the miitopia ost with this one
I keep expecting him to start rapping
love that jacob collier reference
0:24 - My humor is broken
Let’s go new video!
Adding this to my playlist
What did he mean by, converting to female voice?
You can do it with audimee!
This is genuinely the best way anyone the world could have explained this to me, thank YOU! ❤❤
thank you!!!!
0:29 sounds so good!
My inner perfect pitch is screaming:
THE NOTE NAMES DON'T MATCH WHAT I'M HEARING
This is the music theory teacher 48 minutes late to a 50 minute class and REALLY has to leave on time.
quick note for anyone with a musical background that's confused abt the audio you hear, the audio is transposed up by 2 semitones, e.g. the c major chord is D major in the audio. Everything said here is absolutely correct and is very helpful for 1st time producers with less of a musical background, but just wanted to point this out. Great video, short and sweet. Keep it up!
I loved how the sponsor part goes with the music instead of interrupting the video
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.
Woah. It's so cool seeing people's skill in other art fields
calling jacob collier inaccessible is embarrassing (along with most of the video). maybe your tutorial isn't too harmful for beginners though.
These are so nice and fast pace
i didn't comprehend anything yet i can still make, like, something
You make learning so much fun.
0:50 nice freestyle rap!
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!
