I've been trying to write better chord progression and I've only been practicing with diatonic chords of a certain key. I find these diatonic chords (in Ableton) by writing out the notes of the key (e.g C Major) then duplicating them above and creating a triad (e.g copying the notes of C Major on top of each other constructing a C Major chord at the start). That is how I find the diatonic chords of a key. After doing so more research about writing chords because mine sucked I came across this: http://www.guitar-chords.org.uk/chords-key-e-minor.html
Now these chords in that link are different from my "diatonic" chords and I'm confused. Are these chords in the link diatonic chords? Is my way of finding diatonic chords in ableton wrong? How do I determine what chords to use when writing a chord progression?
