Anyone here ever got problems with the chord progression?
I can hear them fine with the bass chord but they just don't give that so it's almost impossible too hear.... It's the only one I always get problems with.

It's one of the more difficult games. But you can still listen for the bass note in each chord (or the high note in each chord) and reason out how that fits with the choices given, considering the possibility of inversions, of course. Having a keyboard handy helps.

Finding where the I (or i) is in the progression removes a couple options.

Then I listen for:
- the chord natures, say major / minor / diminished, ...
- the scale degrees
... which eliminates the remaining options.

If there are still options I haven't ruled out, I use a joker to confirm the scale degree by listening to the root.

Hope it helps!
