Here are some of my personal keys:


  • Charlotte Church - Call My Name (Steve Mac remix) -- 7A (D minor)
  • Dajae - Brigther Days -- 8A (A minor)
  • Hard-Fi - Hard To Beat (Axwell remix) -- 6B (B-flat major)
  • Ian Carey - Say What U Want -- 1A (A-flat minor)
  • M.A.N.D.Y - Body Language -- 10A (B minor)
  • Meck - Thunder In My Heart (Hott 22 remix) -- 8A (A minor)
  • Red Carpet - Alright (Brad Carter remix) -- 8A (A minor)
  • Rokysopp - What Else Is There? (Thin White Duke mix) -- 3A (B-flat minor)
  • Solu Music - Fade (Eric Kupper remix) -- 10A (B minor)
  • Tom Novy - Your body -- 8A (A minor)


Mixed In Key is highly accurate because it analyzes every user's personal collection. This works great because vinyl releases can be different from BeatPort releases. The label that pressed the vinyl could have transposed the song into a different key. This software scans your personal .MP3 and .WAV files, you will get accurate results that are personalized to your collection. This is more accurate than online databases.


The 95% accuracy statement is true for my music collection. This algorithm has made my club mixing much better. Before I licensed the [tONaRT] algorithm in 2004, I was using the piano to find keys manually. After a few weeks of using [tONaRT], I switched completely to using this software. I have not experienced any obvious "out-of-key" mixes since then.


Here's the quickest way to check if your results are accurate or not -- Download the free version, analyze your favorite songs, and see which ones are compatible.

http://www.mixedinkey.com/downloads...rialVersion.msi


You can double click on results in "Browse Collection" to play them. Pick ones that are within 1 number of each other. For example, pick a song that says 7A or 7B, and then pick a song that says 8A or 8B. If two songs start to blend together seamlessly, you've just experienced a harmonic mix. Imagine how good this would sound when mixed on DJ software or DJ hardware.


What are your thoughts?

Glad to see your offering a trial version, it might help people make a more informed call on your product. Just have to wait for Mac release then. I'm curious to see it's accuracy.

Any of you want to try this and post your findings? Preferably senior members. If 5 people can do 10 tracks each, we can extrapolate the results...

Thois,

Any luck on the results? I know that there is a great number of TA forum users who are currently using the program. If you're using the application, please post your experiences so we can improve the next version.

Bm (10A) Push - Journey of Life (Rank 1 Remix) 10A
Bm (10A) Trancesetters - Roaches (Bugs in Slacker's Basement Remix) 1B

the ones on RED are totally incorrect, the ones on ORANGE are off but still mixable with the key the track is really in, the ones on GREEN are correct. so 14 of the 29 tunes were correct. that's 48,3%! not even near 95%. altho i have to say that what Nem has posted isn't the final truth, but i do trust his keys more than i trust this program. and i only analyzed 29 tunes, so that isn't exactly enough, to judge this program really. we'll need more results to see what this program is worth, but so far i'm not impressed at least and wouldn't pay for this.
program also crashed once and has some weird bugs in it!
i'd also like to know why does it want to connect to the internet?

Hi Skip, thanks for the effort.

Let me answer your questions below:


quote:

A#m (3A) Marco V - Godd (Original) 6B
A#m (3A) Benny Benassi - Satisfaction (Isak Original) 6B
Fm (4A) Marc Dawn - Expander (Flutlicht Remix) 7B
D#m (2A) William Orbit - Adagio for Strings (Ferry Corsten Remix) 5B
Am (8A) Queen + Vanguard - Flash (Tomcraft Remix) 11B


3A is B-flat Minor and 8B is B-flat Major.
4A is F Minor and 7B is F Major.
2A is E-flat Minor and 5B is E-flat Major.
8A is A Minor and 11B is A Major.


Your results vary by scale -- Minor or Major. It is possible that both results are correct. [tONaRT] detects the key as 3A. This means that 3A could be a better fit for the duration of the song.


Here's how it works: [tONaRT] looks at the total loudness of every note in the scale. It compares these results to statistical information about every key/scale. When keying songs manually, you should always check your results in several places to get more accurate results. [tONaRT] could have gotten it right by analyzing the entire song, not just one part.



quote:
Bm (10A) Trancesetters - Roaches (Bugs in Slacker's Basement Remix) 1B


This song could be out-of-key on your computer. Are you using a high-quality MP3 or WAV file directly from BeatPort or DJDownload? It looks like the song is detuned. [tONaRT]'s key is one semi-tone below your manual result. Humans have a hard time keying "detuned" songs. Maybe this is why your result is different? You can check your C:\Program Files\Mixed In Key\Collection.xml file and look at the Standard Pitch value for that song. If it's not 440, the song is out-of-key.

Could you please post this bug so we can fix it? To e-mail me privately, my e-mail address is [email protected]

i'd also like to know why does it want to connect to the internet?


Mixed In Key connects to the Internet to check the value in this file:
http://www.MixedInKey.com/LatestDemoVersion.txt

After every release, I update this text file. If there is a new version available, Mixed In Key will show "Download New Version" button on the menu. This helps every user have the latest version.


Thank you again for your effort. Please let me know if you have any questions.


Yakov

Skot_e, I see your point, but this is just a standard DJ mix recorded from vinyl by DJ Prince. It illustrates an example, but these songs are in no way affiliated with Mixed In Key. I am hosting several mixes / live sets on my personal site as well. We greatly respect these artists and we always purchase vinyl/mp3s legitimately from sources like BeatPort, TraxSource and DJDownload.


Hi Nennon
I just want to say that this mix was created using "mixedinkey" and Sony Acid 5.0. I normally just do straight up vinylmixing, but I made an exeption in this case since I got to test the full version for free :-). What I did I took the records that I wanted in the mix and ripped each track to my pc as mp3, ran them trough "MixedInKey", used a keyboard to prove check the key detection. It was 100% correct. Then I sortet them by keycode in the program, that gave me the order, Now I had a suggestion for a mix that will sound in key, since most of the records are around the same BPM the pitch difference wouldnt matter that much.

Then I started Sony Acid 5.0. Added the first track, no beatmapping, left it as just oneshot, added the next song. Matched the bpm manually by adjusting pitch by rightclicking on the file. I could actually see if the two songs where on beat because of the waveforms. Now the two songs are onbeat and onkey. Did some fading in and out, some eqing and fx. This is a very easy way of making the perfect mix, but it takes away the "live" feel of it. I think MixedInKey is a great tool and it will change the way many djs mix, it wil actually learn harmonic mixing to those who cant find the key by ear. And NO I dont get any money saying this!!!

Just like to add that I always buy my music on vinyl, I do download mp3s, but I buy the ones worth having in the collection. Lets hope that DJ mixes dont get banned by the large record companies. There are even recordcompany forums that have threads for dj mixes(defected, swingcity etc etc), so I dont think dj mixes are any problems (yet)......


Kind Regards
