Chords
Now lets take a look at a few Chord Formulas:
Major: Root Note, Major 3rd, Fifth
Minor: Root Note, Minor 3rd, Fifth
Diminished: Root Note, Minor 3rd, Tritone
Ok now what? Now using the Interval list and this three chord formulas we can play Major, Minor or Diminished chord on any key.
For example: If we start from the C note. That’s going to be our root note. And lets say we want to play the C Major chord:
– The root note is C
Free Ableton Presets
– The Major 3rd is 4 Semi-Tones above C so we will end up on E
– The Fifth is 7 Semi-Tones Above C so we will end up on G

So to play C Major we play the C, E and G notes.
You can repeat this for any type of chord on any key.
“Cheating”
But what if we don’t care about Music Theory and just want some chords to play around with? We can use the Chord Effect!
Ableton Live Scale Presets
If we want to play all the Major Chords we can set up the first knob to 4st (Major 3rd) and the second knob to 7st (Fifth).
Now every single note I’ll play will be the Root Note of that Major chord.
Check out the Free Download for a Cheat Sheet showing you how to set up the Chord Effect for all types of basic chords.
Bonus Tip: While focusing on one of the knobs of the Chord Effect, Hold Shift and hit the up or down arrow keys to jump the value up or down by an octave. This will give you a different Inversion of the chord.
And remember, If you like a chord save it as a preset!
