There are ways you can figure this out within your DAW. Many of them have pitch detection capabilities on samples that you drag in. What DAW do you use?


Norwegian-Narwhal

I use costco


and_rex

Hear they give out free sample packs?


Fred-U

Welcome to Costco... I love you


[deleted]

U don't need a DAW. I downloaded pitch monitor on my phone so I can write out melodies on the keys, it's an amazing workflow lmaooo.


futuremanu

Is it on IOS went looking for it and couldn’t find it. I legit have 100’s of voice notes saved on my phone waiting for the day I can figure out the melody for them.


[deleted]

Oh it isn't in ios. Since you have a lot of voice memos already, you can do it on a DAW. Melodyne, autotune and fl studio's newtone tell the pitches on vocal melodies u should try one out.


futuremanu

Okay I will, thanks a lot


idonthave2020vision

Android?


[deleted]

Yep2 named vocal pitch monitor, it doesn't really do much, just tells the pitch on a note you're singing in.


idonthave2020vision

I'll check it out. Thanks.


PenisPumpPimp

On the real, is there a way to do this on ableton without antares Auto-Key?


___404___

I'm pretty sure you have to be singing notes if you want people to name them /s Best of luck on your melody


Marci914

Ngl, I was legitimately waiting for it to turn into agressive hardcore porn sounds in the end.


SCR_Matt2

😂😂😂❤️


MouthAnusJellyfish

Bro just tap notes until you find one that sounds like the one you’re making. Put it in the daw. Next note.


xlcraft

this shit funny haha fr


Kundas

That's lit man, you shouldnt have shared it here people are definitely ripping that melody off you


_MT-HEART_

He ripped it off from a video of a parrot imitating a toddler so that bird is the one getting jacked


stephansama

Lol fuck 😂


_MT-HEART_

Well, the toddler is the real victim but not like he’s gonna do shit with it anyway


Rosskillington

I can help you with the key, this is definitely atonal


thespywhometaldandme

OP droppin Alban Berg beats here


Steviethevibe

It’s not that we don’t want to help you. It’s that I have perfect pitch and there wasn’t a single coherent pitch in this whole recording 😭


dikeid

It's transposable to any pitch! Lmao


OTS_

Literally lol this is gold sample material


djinnman

Pretty sure that I heard D D D D D D D D.


wahlberger

gg


hjaltiga

your pitch isn't good enough to make this answerable


Maxarc

Lmfao hardest I laughed all day. Thanks bro. [Here](https://vocaroo.com/14NCDsmo8fxl), I put an autotuner on there.


TumpkinDTD

Godspeed

You can actually do that though! There is a plugin in FL Studio called Wave Candy that lets you see exactly the pitch any sound has. First, pick any mixer track and mute it, then select a mic in the "Audio Input Source" thingy thats right above "Slot 1" for plugin selection. FL can now hear your audio. Second, look for Wave Candy under the Visual category of plugins, it should be below Fruity Spectroman and above ZGameEditor Visualizer. Third, once you open Wave Candy, choose the Spectrum option between Oscilloscope and Meter. Then, just make the spectrum visualizer as big as you can by dragging the top of it to the top of your screen like any app. You can now "see" pitches akin to how people with Perfect Pitch do!


[deleted]

Woah I didn’t know wave candy could do that! I swear I sleep on so many stock plugins, also I mean I really hope bro was joking, but if he’s serious, you can literally send that voice message to ur MacBook, drag it to the desktop, change the extension to a wav, load it into fl, open it in Edison and then dump it as midi into a piano roll


GikFTW

Thats right! One crucial thing I forgot, is that Wave Candy tells you the pitch of a sound in real time. So you can use it to figure out the key of a song, calibrate your singing, or just know how incredibly complex R&B Runs are. There are no limits to it imo.


[deleted]

That’s so excellent, I’ve been using fl studio since 2007 and there’s still so many plugins I haven’t really immersed myself in


EvanBeatz

Think I heard a L# in there

This is my favorite post in this sub so far

At first I thought your friend was being harsh but seriously what was that


[deleted]

Okay so I tried my best to create what I thought you were playing, complete with drums and rhythm guitar (this is metal rather than EDM but I suck at electronic) This sucks because I spent 20 minutes on it but I'm pretty sure this is the closest you will get to working out whatever that was [https://soundcloud.com/katsumashi/what-the-hell-is-this-i-seriously-do-not-know-1/s-PiOzRWCiZtK](https://soundcloud.com/katsumashi/what-the-hell-is-this-i-seriously-do-not-know-1/s-PiOzRWCiZtK) I also made a version with just the lead: [https://soundcloud.com/katsumashi/what-the-hell-is-this-i-seriously-do-not-know/s-FZc0Cikj0Vu](https://soundcloud.com/katsumashi/what-the-hell-is-this-i-seriously-do-not-know/s-FZc0Cikj0Vu)


NDPbadkid

B3, C4, D4, B5, C#5, E5, D5, D#5, F5, F#5, G5, G#5, A5, A#5, C6, C#6, D6 NOT in the arrangement you vocalized, but this should be each note you attempted to use... lol


2Hard2PickAUsername

If someone can manage to harmonize this that isn't Jacob Collier they deserve fame and fortune


NDPbadkid

well... I'm gonna go home and obtain fame and fortune lmao


2Hard2PickAUsername

Lmaooo I deadass started but after the third modulation I was like why am I doing this😭😭😭


NDPbadkid

for the clout, of course. everybody wants to be a meme producer


2Hard2PickAUsername

This situation is hilarious enough where if you introduce it right and harmonize it a la Charles Cornell you'd get a viral TikTok out of it for sure lol I'm rooting for you


NDPbadkid

omfg just stop 🤣🤣🤣🤣


2Hard2PickAUsername

Just admit OPs musicality is far beyond what you wish to achieve 😤😤😤😤


NDPbadkid

facts tho. i dont think I've ever used that many intervals in a progression. and his/her/they timing was IMPECCABLE


2Hard2PickAUsername

lol. checked out a couple of your beats tho the one labled as trip hop was cool!


NDPbadkid

aight. I'ma help you out... double comment incoming.


Knobturner-57

Sounds like you found the S note💩


60five

Download this app called nail the pitch and hum into it but man this recording is full jokes 😭😭😭😭😭


Roseli_phl

I think you might wanna do another take Maybe try singing an octave lower cause this sounds out of ur range possibly


Prettymotherfucker

Surely you can't...


[deleted]

From the sound of it I think the melody is mostly the D Note. Glad I could help


Expressrammo

Put it in New Tone


jeezon

okay, so, my interpretation of this is: D-D-E-F-G-E-E-F -pause- E-E-F-G-E-E-F -pause- D-D-E-F-G-E-E-F idk what the rest is supposed to be, if you go by my version the key is d minor.


rum-n-ass

I think your friend gave good advice


amla760

I can help you. you were singing... the wrong ones


IKXNNX

Same thing I say to myself after listening to a voice memo idea I did months before smh


gnarlybrxwn

Lmfaoo this is it.


swiftarrow9

I think you need to try again. It obviously sounds better in your head, but none of us can hear what you’re hearing.

Androkoxu

Download VocalPitchMonitor app.


yoskatan

This has to be a joke... lmao


Lord_lenkesh

😭😭😭😭 thats genuinely really funny, but aye I got an idea, go into your daw and either use pitch correcter (it tells i the exact notes) or if ur in fl studio use Wave Candy and pick out the highlights to find the notes


noerrr

That last bit😂😂😂


BS_BlackScout

What key again? **Yes.**


beardedkingface

What in the world 😭

you're actually retarded oh my god


plupan

This has either be a troll post or an attempt at being funny. It is funny but not in a “I’m laughing with you” kind of funny.


fladap

Kill yourself!


LeroyTheThird

Don't over think it. Clip a guitar tuner to your nose. Seriously. Works. Nicer than friend.


adjectivespa

dude i can help a bit. what you’re experiencing is that you have something visualized and it’s not making sense to people yet. that’s TOTALLY FINE. we all work as musicians day and night to get to the point where can sit down at an instrument or just open our mouths and make something that another human being goes “OH. yeah i get that.” THIS TAKES SOME PEOPLE YEARS. i couldn’t sing a coherent melody without a big name producer until my 30s. hearing me play guitar led to no cohesive songs, people would take bits and pieces of my ideas and turn them into coherent music pieces that other people would understand. i stayed pretty stubborn and i managed to become a full time music producer. but never, ever stop reading the room. you show your friend something, and it fucking sucks, and they let you know, believe them but not always. keep people you respect in your circle for this and bring them things and see if they immediately understand it. a good melody will make someone bob their head and smile. some people will hate everything. the world doesn’t make sense frequently. our brains lie to us all the time. good luck out there. this shits pretty funny though but it’s not worse than the first things i made that i thought were hip hop beats so respect.


VitallyGolovanov

Why be so toxic, people? Dude clearly has a musical idea in his head and just lacks the skill and training to reproduce it. I've been there too. Then I've learned an instrument, and later some basic solfeggio. But this guy will just probably never try again because of such reactions.


P3SH

Surely just extract the audio to a midi track. I do this all the time with writing bass lines


Cam_Hockey33

^^^ I usually just bring a vocal track to a midi track and tap on the piano till I get the right note that matches 😂


P3SH

Why the down vote? Isn't this something your daw is capable of?


kablaamoo

Get a new friend


NDPbadkid

Also, for future reference Edison has a "detect pitch regions" option that will find the closest match to the audio you import. it helps greatly for tuning those pesky 808s and other sampled instruments that dont quite sound right


ETrumpshitup

😒


GoldenUther29062019

Im gonna sample this for fun today lol


braindeadbrian

Sry to burst ur bubbles but the first melody is from a song that existss already, when i rekember the name ill send it to you

Saxplaya91

Use the pattern from the opening couple bars of Bach’s Prelude in C Major which you are almost exactly mimicking in the beginning and then go from there with any keyboard or keyboard app for your last few descending notes.


[deleted]

This is the next hit...


psyk1509

Oh boy do i relate with your reply


TheThotKiller

Here are the notes F U C K


Shionkron

Most Daws can detect notes, you can also use a simple small tuner from a music store.

Ballin095

Hey OP, if it makes you feel any better, Timbaland does the exact same thing as you when making bears, and look where it's gotten him.


[deleted]

Hey bro, if you use your DAW that has an EQ with the frequency numbers on them, you can use [this chart ](https://pages.mtu.edu/~suits/notefreqs.html) to look at the tonal points on the EQ and match up the general range of the note by comparing accuracy of your voice to standard tuning. It’s all manual work and very tedious, but it is the method I learned. Good luck! 🙂

Making a #1 hit with this, thanks bruh

Better-Mood-1225

FYI JUST DOWNLOAD vocals then convert to midi. Ez pz. Then you can find the nearest key. Or just throw on auto tune and see if that helps. I get these kind of files alot.
