You can make your process faster - if you find a note that feels "like home" - or the note you would end the song on - try that one first. Keep practicing - your ear will improve - I've been doing this for 50 years, and although my hearing is not as precise as it once once, my ear is constantly improving. Once you find home, if you learn to listen for "character notes" you can pretty quickly be able to identify not just the basic tonality of the song (major, minor) but also the specific mode or scale.
Once you find the root, find the fifth note of the scale (7 steps up from the root.)
The second note of the scale is almost always 2 semi-tones up from the root.
So now that you have the root, second, and the fifth, you need to find the third note of the scale. It is either 3 semitones up from the root (minor) or 4 (major). It should be pretty obvious, most of the time.
Now we need to figure out whether your sixth note of the key is flatted (one semitone up from the fifth) or natural (two semi-tones up from the fifth). Again, you will really hear it when it's wrong.
Finally, we need to hear whether your seventh note is natural (one step down from the octave) or flatted (two steps down from the octave). This can be a little tougher.
And what about the fourth note of the scale? Well, it's almost always 5 semitones from the root, but it is really not necessary because it can clash with alot of other notes in the key. Use as you'd like.
In this song, the second chord is the "four" chord, and it is also minor so it tells that the key has that very dark flat sixth. The next chord is up a whole step and is a major chord. (it's a dominant). The character note of that chord is its major third, which is a natural 7th from the root of the first chord. So that gives the whole song the "smell" of Bb harmonic minor, which is specifically the smell of the flat sixth and the natural seventh.
Play these notes and you will hear it: Bb C Db Eb F Gb A Bb. Notice the interval between the Gb and the A - it's a minor third. It is super distinctive. The three chords are Bb minor, made up of Bb-Db-F, Eb Minor, made up of Eb-Gb-Bb, and F major (F-A-C).
If you learn to play the following scales/modes and understand what their character notes are, you will be miles ahead of many musicians. The major (major third) sounds and their character notes are: Major scale, Mixolydian (flat 7) , Lydian (sharp 4). The minor (flat third) sounds are: Melodic Minor (natural 6, natural 7), Harmonic Minor (flat 6, natural 7), Dorian(natural 6, flat 7) and Natural Minor (flat 6, flat 7). For example Dorian sounds minor, has a flat seventh, but most of all has a bright (natural) sixth. That makes it sound super slick - think of "So what" by Miles.
This is not a hard and fast rule, but applies to a lot of music. At any rate, I'm rambling. Pontificating to be exact. I'm just saying that a little basic music theory goes a long way when you learn how to listen for it.
Thank You for the masterclass. Man I don't know how much of that I'll retain, I'll have to reference it. I do appreciate the knowledge. Thanks for taking the time to share. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🍻
@@LiftedNoise this way, it’s kind of super easy because you’re deciding between two notes at each point.I started out learning Jim I Hendrix songs on a record player at 16 rpm. I was 13. Picking out one note at a time. Now I’m almost sixty, and can hear a tune and pretty much play it. I still have much more to learn. I dig your content and your music a lot. You got groove,man.
@HIFI1965 thanks for the good words 🙏 and I appreciate the insight foreal 😁🍻
excellent tutorial - nice one.
Thanks!! 😎🍻
I'm hoping for a Tuner in the next update like in the MPC. 😍
the Display looks perfect for that feature.
Great video, as allways. thx for that.
That would be a nice feature but also the USB audio built in makes up for some feature limitations like this. I would definitely be for it though! Thank You for the comment!! 🙏🍻
Thanks bro as this video came up I just reordered the sp mk 2 about a hour before this popped up lol
Nice! 👌 thanks for jumping on the video. I've ordered the mk2 2x as well. It's a fun piece 🍻
Just about to tune in
Alright! 🍻
Yeah too much thinking for me at the moment. I’ll attempt one day lol. Great video man. Thx.
It's not as bad as maybe it looks. I did find it more difficult to explain plainly then it is actually in practice. 🍻
I kinda use my sp with my daw. I use Motu m4 which has four inputs. I plug my sp out to my audio interface Input. Then I run it in fl studio and use auto key to find what key I’m in easily 😅 kind of a hassle but it works. But then again I’ve noticed that thing you pointed out that some samples might be out of tune and be playing in another frequency which is kinda hard sometimes to find the key. But great tip there !! And for me instead of switching back to chromatic mode I just stay on the major and keep flipping the scales till all the notes sound good. Kind of like when we raw dog autotune keys when trying to find the right key for the artist 😂😂😂 when we don’t know the key of a beat
Well glad you did find something in this video even if you continue with auto detect. I Use the key detect in my MPC when im on it bit using my ear when on the SP is part of the process and I do enjoy it. It's like a moment of discovery that feels good. Thanks for stopping in 😁🍻
Good money!
😁🍻
Shift and record settings Using the wave generator can do it too. Good shit mane 💯
😎🙏🍻 thanks bro!!
@@LiftedNoise for sure. We stay up 🌊
Interesting…I would just run the sample through an app on my phone but this is a great way to use your ears.
Yea exactly. I've tried one that is pretty nice. I'll showcase it but I did want to do this video 1st. Also whatever you can do with less tools is less of a crutch and skill builder.
what app is that
@nitingowda1921 just look up "song key finder" this is on android. I haven't looked on ios
@@nitingowda1921 it all depends what device your on. Scaler can get close but I love Chord AI the most.
