Thumbnail made by and courtesy of Emergency Russell, go check him out!    / @emergencyrussell   1:24 Bass+melody 2:24 Chord voicings 2:51 Breakdown of voicings Here's a quick hands-on tutorial on voicing some synthwave chords. We'll examine a simple progression (F, G, Am, C, F G Am, Em) and I'll show you one example of how I choose to play these chords. I'll use just one hand because, honestly, most synth pads are so "heavy" (they occupy a large portion of frequency space) that you don't need more than a few notes to create really great, full sounding chords. Hope you enjoy!
