🎹 Tired of your basic sounding chord progression? 🤷♂️
Try to invert some of your chords for a sweeter sound.
Inversions are as simple as moving your bass note an octave higher
----------
✅ EXAMPLE:
In the case of the Cminor chord,
the first inversion means we will play the C note an octave higher while keeping the two other notes fixed.
The second inversion means we will displace both C and Eb an octave higher while keeping the third note (G) at its place.
----------
Thanks to inversions, you will discover different tones while keeping the same chord consonance.
In simpler terms your chord will remain sounding tuned to your track no matter what inversion you use.
Because at the end, you're using the same notes just an octave higher.
✅ How is it useful?
------------
Beside the different tonal quality you can get, inversions also come handy when working on your arrangement.
Let's say your C minor chord fights with the frequencies/notes of your melody.
In this case, making inversions can help free up the frequencies/notes responsible of this fight.
As a result, you get a much tighter mix and a composition that breaths more with maximum intellegibility.
