For example, we may play: 10A > 10A > 10B > 9B > 8B > 8A > 7A > 6A for a 100% harmonic DJ set. We recommend going clock-wise or counter-clockwise around the wheel, changing key every couple of songs. You can also mix between inner and outer wheels if you stay in the same "hour." For example, try mixing from 8A to 8B, and notice the change in melody as you go from Minor to Major. If you are in 12A, you can play 11A, 12A or 1A. If you are in 8A, you can play 7A, 8A or 9A next.
MIXED IN KEY 2.5 PROFESSIONAL
Most professional DJs move around the Camelot wheel with every mix.įor a perfect mix, choose a keycode within one "hour" of your current keycode. This will sound like a professional mash-up made in the studio, even if you are mixing on live DJ equipment. On the Camelot wheel, each musical key is assigned a keycode number from one to twelve, like hours on a clock.įor the first mix, we recommend mixing two songs that have the same keycode, like 8A and 8A. To help DJs learn harmonic mixing, Mark Davis created the Camelot wheel, a visual representation of which musical keys are compatible with each other: It will detect the key and BPM of every song. Launch the latest Version 4.0, click "Add Files" and Mixed In Key will automatically scan your MP3 and WAV files.
MIXED IN KEY 2.5 SOFTWARE

Communication and feedback is a two-way street, guys.Harmonic Mixing is an advanced technique used by top DJs all over the world. It would have been very helpful to know of resources such as the new video tutorial and forum topic via email. Those of us who’ve seen the potential of, and are willing to help test and refine your product should not have been left without guidance until now.
Glad to see that an official topic has been created after many weeks of seeing basically nothing mentioned in your own forums. Searching constantly online for some sort of centralized repository detailing issues as they’ve come up, or how/when they are being resolved had been fruitless, not to mention frustrating.
But, I found out about it only by initiating a Google search for The 4:30 official video is the first tutorial released with any meat to Glitches, questions, and suggestions submitted via the built-in Feedback pane were responded to at first, but not lately. Software worked pretty well out of the box. I’ve been testing Flow since the beta was released in October. Like playing the piano with quantize on or a drummer that keeps time perfectly to the microsecond it has no ‘swing’ and loses the human risk factor (in the precision timing) that is part of why a live DJ or live music is so compelling for me. It’s very clever, and they’re doing things right, but (and it’s been said before) pushed to its logical conclusion we end up with a computerised DJ. So the engineer in me loves this, but not the DJ. A “grid of zones” anyone? With new track/zone suggestions flowing onto a scrolling screen, for example. Why take the risk when introducing the software - it would be less likely to be accepted if it were initially radically different. Actually I think it’s probably only in Flow initially so we are all in our comfort zone. I think it’s only a matter of time before the “deck A, deck B” paradigm is thrown out here, for the right reasons. The focus on zones instead of cue points, and putting automation and sync (and detailed metadata about the track) at the foundation. I think it’s an indication of where things are destined to be going.
I was not able to check the demo out, but I like this a lot.
