I coded this application to generate chord progressions. All you have to do is hold and release the spacebar. It also displays 1 of 182 scales from around the world that you can try to work into your composition. The transposition numbers below the scale name refer to semitones, so 2-2-1-2-2-2-1 would be a major scale.

I hope you all have a good 2017.

Below is the logic I used for chord progressions:
CHORD 1 = 1

CHORD 2 = 2,3,4,5,6,7

CHORD 3 = if CHORD 2 is 2, then 3,5,7
   if CHORD 2 is 3, then 4,6,7
   if CHORD 2 is 4, then 1,5,6
   if CHORD 2 is 5, then 1,6,7
   if CHORD 2 is 6, then 2,4,7
   if CHORD 2 is 7, then 1,3

CHORD 4 = if CHORD 3 is 1, then 2,3,4,5,6,7
          if CHORD 3 is 2, then 3,5,7
   if CHORD 3 is 3, then 4,6
   if CHORD 3 is 4, then 1,5,6
   if CHORD 3 is 5, then 1,6,7
   if CHORD 3 is 6, then 2,4,7
   if CHORD 3 is 7, then 1,3

CHORD 5 = if CHORD 4 is 1, then 2,3,4,5,6,7
          if CHORD 4 is 2, then 3,5,7
   if CHORD 4 is 3, then 4,6
   if CHORD 4 is 4, then 1,5,6
   if CHORD 4 is 5, then 1,6,7
   if CHORD 4 is 6, then 2,4,7
   if CHORD 4 is 7, then 1,3

CHORD 6 = if CHORD 5 is 1, then 2,3,4,5,6,7
          if CHORD 5 is 2, then 3,5,7
   if CHORD 5 is 3, then 4,6,7
   if CHORD 5 is 4, then 1,5,6
   if CHORD 5 is 5, then 1,6,7
   if CHORD 5 is 6, then 2,4,7
   if CHORD 5 is 7, then 1,3

CHORD 7 = if CHORD 6 is 1, then 2,3,4,5,6
          if CHORD 6 is 2, then 3,5
   if CHORD 6 is 3, then 4,6
   if CHORD 6 is 4, then 1,5,6
   if CHORD 6 is 5, then 1,6
   if CHORD 6 is 6, then 2,4
   if CHORD 6 is 7, then 1,3

CHORD 8 = if CHORD 7 is 1, then 4,57
          if CHORD 7 is 2, then 5,7
   if CHORD 7 is 3, then 4,7
   if CHORD 7 is 4, then 5
   if CHORD 7 is 5, then 7
   if CHORD 7 is 6, then 4,7

modifiers
none
+6
+7
+9
+6/9
+11
5 of

if 5, another option is b5sub

none and +7 are three times more likely to occur

modifier exceptions:
"5 of" cannot apply to 1, 4, dim 7, or dim 2

looks like my song still got lost in the upload ether.  can anybody spare an upload link?

i can give you an upload link. but it's probably going to end up not appearing in the list hmm some weird shit happened with the year change. Trash80 had to retag all of the previous uploads   http://weeklybeats.com/music/upload?has … f893cc40b1

My upload ended up in week 53 and not 52...

Yep, same here: I think it was just the year change throwing some unintended complexity at the auto-tagging scripts.

ok. should all be fixed now. trash80 fixed the tags on the errant submissions

Hey Phil,

I was curious if Week 52's due date is january 1st, or December 31st?

I ask because I'll be on a plane on NYE and wouldn't be able to upload my last song, unless the due date is Jan 1st.

Thanks!

Well, in theory it should always be the Sunday following the previous week. So it should be Jan 1st. In practice Im not sure we've ever seen a final weeklybeat that fell on the next year. I guess we'll see how it goes big_smile

Dear WB people:

As I was explaining in my track description, I tried an upgrade two hours before the deadline... and I'm still not able to reopen my DAW and render the result !!! (it's been "optimizing the factory library" for ages)

Could I have a link, so I'll upload the moment I fix this mess? I really HATE automatic upgrades sad

Thanks in advance

4 more weeks left, but I thought it would be cool to see a chart of wb uploads. I'm very impressed to see how close to a perfect exponential decay the weekly submissions follow! I thought it would have been more random than that, although I don't have the tools to do any more analysis of the data!

people are computers wink

That would be awesome.  I was out actually rehearsing the (potentially) failed upload for a gig last Monday.

ps.  Please let me know if an upload link is not possible also.  Ta.
