Power chords.

Posted

Hi all.

I am a new user of the forum and Synfire express. Let me know if you can add power chords in progressions and if these are treated as normal chords. I have not found in the catalog and are widely used in rock music. Sorry, but my English is very poor.

Thank you very much.

A power chord is root and 5th of a chord.

Compose your song using normal chords to ensure you get the progression right. For the guitar instrument, make the Figure play 1 and 5 only (use green symbols). That will give you power chords.

In other words: "Power Chord" is a way to interpret a chord. It is not a chord by itself.
