QUOTE (Scorpiotic @ Jul 28 2008, 05:51 PM)  Hey Been searching around but can't find anything; anyone know of any site that lists song (as many as possible  ) and what key they're in?My ear is waaay to far to catch any stuff like that yet, and without the key you end up with alot of sour notes (at least i do) Any help appreciated ^^ Scorpiotic I don't have a website for you, but I wrote a lesson on working it out for yourself - you can find it on my theory lessons board

Go here... http://www.all-guitar-chords.com click "chords to scale" enter the chords which are part of the song and it will be displayed which possible key and scale that is...the more chords you enter the less possibilities of scales are there of course...it s a good approach in order to analyse a song ! Of course you should bear in mind that compositions are often too complex to analyse it that way !Often you pick chords which are way out of the scale and everything because it sounds kind of weird but somehow great and let alone the whole world of modulation....it's the same with translating computers...if you let translate a whole text by a computer the outcome is pretty crappy because language is also far too complex to be analysed by a stupid system
 It also depends on what kind of music you are analysing. If you want to know what key this Santana piece is written in - easy - it is always a Dorian scale because he knows no other scale !  But if you wanna analyse a Satriani piece it becomes rather complicated because he tends to compose his songs with the Pitch Axis theory This post has been edited by Nighthawk: Jul 29 2008, 09:07 AM |

QUOTE (Scorpiotic @ Jul 29 2008, 10:41 AM) hehe ye, experienced the translating stuff waaay to many times xD too bad most songs are just written by tabs rather than chords, at least for most of the music i play but still, thanks alot ^^Just check out Andrew's theory lessons, particularly about scales and chords. You will find that once you know the scale involved, you can easily know the chords involved and determine the key. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE
