This $30 chord sequencer adds more Gospel to your music #synth #midicontroller

I built a nifty little MIDI device that might help you find some interesting new chord progressions. This runs on a 1.28" CrowPanel by ELECROW ( https://tidd.ly/49pImPW , or the new 1.46" version https://tidd.ly/4u51ZEi ) for roughly $30. Table of contents: 00:00 hi, what's this? + quick demo 00:40 sponsored by ELECROW 01:05 hardware needed 02:01 Yes, I came up with the firmware, but that's not important here 02:44 you'll need an external sound source #synthesizer and set it to local mode 03:15 you can play on the device itself or on a midi keyboard 03:28 basic usage 03:49 emotional chords! 04:41 ... or not 05:05 chord analyzer 05:52 passing chords 06:33 bass (chord root + key root) 07:23 this channel needs you support 07:48 trigger key changes (some music theory) 09:15 functional chords, related keys and chromatic/altered chords 09:53 chord sequencer 10:44 flip the screen 11:13 disarm the passing chord function 11:19 some interesting details (automatic voicing, slightly random velocity and more) 12:19 playing "chord melodies" and throwing some "emotional chords" in (proof of practicability) 12:45 using the device to create chord progressions in other sequencers 13:02 a short improvisation (left hand: chord machine, right hand: keyboard) 14:16 conclusion, and some more ideas (and why I need your help) Links: CrowPanel https://tidd.ly/49pImPW , or 1.46" version https://tidd.ly/4u51ZEi MIDI shield https://amzn.to/4m9EFTv Firmware: https://floydsteinberg.gumroad.com/l/...

Some bands / artists I've been following for a long time are (among others) Massive Attack, Pink Floyd, Pet Shop Boys, Archive, A-Ha, Yes, Porcupine Tree, John Mellencamp, Jean-Michel Jarre, Metallica, Peter Gabriel, The Midnight and Perturbator. So my music will kind of sound like those (without ever reaching the greatness of those artists, of course). :-)
