That's exactly why I made the lesson. I figured a lot of people were probably a little intimidated by how complex it looked. But really the basic aspects of getting tracks recorded very similar same no matter what program you use. It's just a matter of learning the layout of the program and once you know that then it becomes much easier. That's also why I'm going to add another one for Kristal Audio and maybe Audacity, to show how the same basic approach is applied in different programs.

I would like to get to the point of choosing a key and it gives you actual chords, but for now I'll stick with the numbers because it's simpler.
Mine also uses music theory to always create "good" sounding progressions instead of randomly putting chords from a key together. And mine also has options for extended chords (7th, 9th, sus2, sus4, and 6th). These extensions are randomly added, but the base triads the extensions are built off of are derived from theory.
