Overview

Free MIDI Chords

This is a collaborative project to create a collection of all chords and useful chord progressions in all keys, as MIDI files, usable with your favorite DAW.

This collection is FREE and you can contribute to it using the issue tracker above. Please use the bug tracker if you find incorrect chords!

All the MIDI files are licensed under the MIT license, and you can them use in any musical project freely.

Installation

Just download and unzip one of the release file. Then drag and drop the MIDI files from your DAW to your tracks.

Drag drop chords ableton

Contents

The chords collection is organized using 3 levels of directories:

  • 1st level: All 12 Major and Minor keys
  • 2nd level:
    • 1/ Triads
    • 2/ 7ths and 9ths chords
    • 3/ All other chords
    • 4/ Chord progressions
  • 3rd level: Major and Minor scales

Below the progressions directory, you'll find 3 more directories. They contain the same MIDI chord progressions files but with different timings: basic4 style, alt4 style and hiphop style.

    Help with chords names

    Hi,

    First, this is great! Well done!

    I am a complete beginner in music production. I just had my first piano class, because I want to learn a bit of music to be able to make my EDM tracks. I have two questions:

    1. I know is out of the scoop, but I am quite confused (because of my lack of knowledge) with some files names and their meaning. For example, what all those letters mean at C - bIIIM ii bIIM I.mid file? If you could just explain a bit the meaning of those letters would be fantastic and very appreciated.

    2. Because I'm just starting, I don't want (and don't have money) to spend money on Ableton right now. So, I'm using free software (Qtractor). I've so far only worked with audio samples, so I'm new to MIDI. After I imported the MIDI file to my DAW, do I need to "add" an instrument to it or something? And my instrument, do you mean a vst plugin or something else?

    Sorry for these sillies questions, but I hope you can help me kick off here.

    Thank you a lot, Castle

    Add .gitignore and .gitkeep

    Previously, the user would have to create their own dist directory if they wanted to successfully make the project. Now, the dist directory is already in the project (without any of its contents).

    This also allows for more convenient pulling if you want to make a change without having to delete all the residue from a compilation.

    Other feature request

    @ldrolez thx for your very very nice work :)

    I suggest adding something else.

    Pure rythm midi files. It would be super helpful to have all "standard" stuff like 4x 8th etc.

    I am using FL studio and you can have that super nice ghostnotes. Having rythm midis would make live so much simpler idea finding.

  • Generate guitar chord midi

    Generate guitar chord midi

    What I mean by guitar chord is to have guitar chord represented as midi. Like if it was Em chord. It will be E2 B2 E3 G3 B3 E4. You get the idea. It will be easy to use midi instead finding what to play for a chord manually. Atleast for me or anyone who don't play guitar. And emulate guitar using instrument plugins.

    My fork of Dan Hamer's free chord pack

    Hello, ldrolez! This is not really an issue, just a heads-up. Have you heard of the chord pack Dan Hamer posted on the WATMM subreddit? Well, I made an even better version of it, with additional help by Hamer himself! I fixed A LOT of filenames and folder structures. You can get it here. Hope it's useful enough for your archive!
