Compromise?

Do this: On off On off On (with white notes)

EG.

C,-D-E-F-G
[ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[.][ ][.][ ][.]

(You're playing the ones in bold, so CEG)

That'll give you a vocublary of...

ACE (A Minor)
*BDF*
CEG (C Major)
DFA (D Minor)
EGB (E Minor)
FAC (F Major)
GBD (G Major)

Ignore BDF, it's a dischord and won't be much use on it's own.


what errrrr he said

or get yourself a vst, something like vanguard. You'll be able to make all sorts of synth, string type sounds with that. all you need to do is twiddle different knobs, no music theory needed there ;)
