Timed Exclusive for the Ambient Tutorials tier and up!

One of the main features of Stepic, the chord sequencing function is an often under utilitized feature that definitely deserves more attention that it gets. Stepics ability to generate chords and then randomize the order of these chords is extremely powerful and in this ambient tutorial, I’m going to show you how to use this feature in an ambient context to create chord sequences that are constantly evolving and changing to give you the perfect base for your next ambient track.

Do you guys use Stepic's chord sequencer? Let me know what you think about this technique in the comments below!

Cheers and enjoy,

Yes! I use Stepic. It is in my opinion, an epic step sequencer. It is individually, a most important device, in db acoustic pallet. I’m so pleased that I found out about it and I would not have found out about it, if it hadn’t been for S1gns of L1fe.

Ok, i’ve seen the video and want to respond to Chris’s request. Yes, the video is very very helpful. It’s my plan to develop a track along the lines of the video seen here, apply that which is taught. Absolutely, yes, I would like to see more videos like this. Interestingly, it’s so unlikely to actually reproduce the same sound and that has got to be the interesting thing about, posting in the community. I look forward to being able to post my first track for others to hear, here on our discord, community family, Home.

Great video Chris! I'm just starting to get into ambient music a bit more and I have purchased Stepic but not used it yet. I'm looking forward to experimenting with it and seeing what I come up with. Please keep the videos coming. Cheers.

I've used Stepic's Chord feature in the past but not with random engaged. Cool trick. Have you used the Automation feature at all?

Just bought Stepic to learn, loved this tutorial. Your style is easy to comprehend for a beginner to the genre, and the way you explain concepts is genuinely engaging and entertaining. Thanks for these resources! Peace & Respect
