I took the chords from Boards of Canada songs and put them into Xfer Records Cthulhu. From Cthulhu, you can make variations, add low notes, and change to major/minor/suspended. This gives a lot of inspiring chord progressions from some of my favorite Boards of Canada songs. I put them into a zip file of chord presets that you can use in Cthulhu for yourself (see below).

The ADSR production team is back with another follow-up to their popular Cthulhu Presets series. Although many labels have tried to imitate this series, nobody does it quite like ADSR.

Airwaves Artist Chords & Melodies is the latest iteration of this insanely popular series from ADSR with a new twist. Imagine being being able to play the chord progressions from some of the most popular songs from the biggest artists in electronic music.

Airwaves allows you to learn and understand the chord progressions used in some of the biggest electronic hits on the radio. All presets have been sorted in multiple folders categorized by each artist. Within each artist folder are 4-5 song titled presets that contain the chord progressions of that title.

If your a DJ or producer creating remixes, bootlegs, re-works, these presets will easily allow you to re-create the chord structures using your own synth sounds. If you are writing new tracks and are stuck, simply load up a preset within the same key of your song and trigger the progressions in a different order to come up with an entirely new chord structure.

Since these are chord presets, you can apply them to pretty much any style of music such as , R&B, Deep House, Future House, EDM, Trap and Future Bass. You already know these chord structures work well for top Billboard charting tracks, why not apply that magic to your own music.

In developing this pack we have taken a new approach with the aim of providing unique and unexpected chords that can give fresh melodic vibes to your music. Remove the struggle of coming up with chords and programming melodic arpeggiation and replace it with an epic array of options ready to match with the musical feelings and ideas you are trying to express.

To make it even easier to navigate Athenaeum, we have included 30 MIDI examples of chord progressions accompanied by 30 corresponding MIDI files that link to the current presets, along with 15 chords progression WAV loops. Together, these act like a tutorial of how this pack should be used as well as being viable melodic ideas for your own music.

I've created three preset banks based of a discussion on kvr regarding chords suitable for deep house. The download contains the three fxp files, as well as the midi files. The chords include are as follows:

hi! the presets are showing up in cthulhu but when i select e.g. House Chords 1 nothing happens when i hit my keyboard. also there is no blue line showing up in the cthulhu keyboard region indicating that the chords where loaded.

The Dark Minor Chord Engine presets give you access to lush, advanced Dark Chords bursting with flavor and emotion at the press of a Key. With incredible quality, The Dark Minor presets shave hours off of producing your best hip-hop, trap, and R&B...

A chord preset pack for Cthulhu VST, consisting of chords from 8 legendary Deadmau5 tracks. The presets are as extensive as possible, aiming to have every possible chord variation appearing in each track.

This time the concept behind this pack was to create a deep but still easy to use and high-quality tool for creating hot chord progressions from records we hear on the radio. We analyzed The Hot 100 Billboard charts and chose the most interesting and fresh sounding chord progressions used by superstar producers. Melody notes were added to the chords in some presets.

Pair this Cthulhu presets with your favorite synth and you will get a ton of inspiration in a few seconds! This xFer Cthulhu Presets pack are deep like never before, but all chords are in the same ballpark, so they can be mixed and rearranged in many ways.
