    That´s a very good way to explain. There are choices and reasons to spread chords. It also shows how the instrument "suggests" what notes to play, but it always isn´t the best to get your idea across.
    I start from writing on an acoustic guitar. If the chord progressions are made, I then assign the strings/notes to different instruments in the daw. So only 2 or 3 notes are played by 1 instrument. That removes some clutter. Out of one guitar chord (6 notes at a time) 3 or even 4 instruments can be "extracted".

      @@IvoSiem thanks for watching and that’s a great tip! It really is a fun limitation to try to limit your parts on the computer to what a human could actually play. It forces you to write more simple but interesting songs!

    Thanks, very cool. Coming from the piano world I'd argue that triads also don't work in a piano. It's just an ugly way of voicings. Inversions and spreading the notes is always classier. I will try that tip of root + 5th on every scale to see if it sounds good as it does on ionian.
