Cant figure out the how to recreate this loop

[BassMake]

hello,

im trying to figure out how to wrtie this progression to midi. im lacking the knowledge to do it myself so ive tryed it with the audio to midi converter in abelton, but sadly without any good results. So im hoping here someone can help me figure this one out.

I would suggest learning some music theory, I'm no expert, and I'm listening on a laptop,and, I'm not at my keyboard, but it sounds to me like a really basic progression, most likely a I, IV, V with the variations being inversions of the same progression, maybe even a I, V, IV. It's likely to have seventh notes that are obscuring the major feel ever so slightly. As I say, I'm not at my keyboard but I'm pretty sure it's easy, perhaps now I've started the ball rolling, somebody who knows better than I will step in and solve it for you, but it would help you if you knew the language, because the bottom line, is that it's definitely a stereotyped pop progression, a continuous cadence.

Learning the "theory" doesn't help if you cannot identify what the notes are. Theory does help though with naming what you hear.

Sorry I cannot help further, zippyshare is not helpful on a phone. Got a youtube link perhaps?

Theory actually does help, because with theory you listen to chord changes and learn what they sound like. It's because of theory and listening that I know that this is a typical pop progression and I'd find it in two minutes at a keyboard.

Learning the "theory" doesn't help if you cannot identify what the notes are.

Why is theory in quotes?

"Learning the theory" is not through itself isolated from 'identify the notes'. When you identify the notes and your findings make sense to you, you're learning music theory. "Music theory" is not just some abstract information on paper.
I don't see evidence the individual can identify no notes. If one knows from 'I ii iii IV' etc one obtains a mode of operation most appropriate to the task.

Due to the file sharing platform, which allowed only a couple of seconds of playback except to download (I'm not doing this much, sorry), I can't quite transcribe it all for you even were I so inclined, but I can pretty much guarantee it's purely diatonic and all triadic. NB: the I ii iii, probably seventh chords figure in.

But short of having these tools, find the notes some kind of way, trial and error. Imagine a time where people did it themselves.

You're gonna have to learn how to use a spectrum analyzer that shows the notes to see what notes are peaking then go from there.

Photosounder Spiral does exactly what you're looking for.

This is one of my favourite plugins, I love using it when doing sound design to visualise the overtones.
The video explains it very clearly. I have used it for whistling and then transcribing. But it can definitely be used to find the notes in chords etc.
There is a free Sprial CM version as well, but it's missing most of the features - the full version is definitely worth it.

I wanted to give it a try, but:

The chords sound like Em9 Cmaj9 Am9 D (probably wrong about that tho), with some weird harmony going on that sounds like a result of using a harmonized synth patch rather than any thoughtful voice leading.
