mixing in key for dummies

ok so ive heard of mixing trance in key but tbh i dont have a clue what it is and its ment to be the only way to construct a proper set having it all in the same key, so what is a key? how do you tell what key a tune is? do onli certain keys work together or do they all fit together?

oh, I quickly read through the site. I thought it was a database of songs people have keyed and you can search existing songs. But it looks like you can detect the key of the song too.


good program.

Yar, I use Rapid Evolution 2. I check them by hand too, and it's been surprisingly accurate.

Or you can pay $60 for that "other" program.

Why not double check them by ear? Otherwise, how do you know which software program was correct?

Even with a keyboard? I mean, I can't do it by just listening either, and I took piano lessons for many years.

But with the keyboard it's pretty easy, although you do need to have some knowledge of how to build a chord and such.
