Mixed in Key Explained - Mixing in Harmony

Post by tripandball » Fri Mar 19, 2010 1:45 am

If you have ever wanted to mix your tracks in harmony and in key with other tracks, then MIXED IN KEY is the tool to use! I wrote a blog about it on my ableton blog!

if you warp with repitch then the keys will change. Approx 6% shift in speed causes a half step key change... which is +7 keycodes

Just a heads up for all people considering getting mixed in key or use it already. I used mixed in key for awhile It worked great, but the current version has some major bugs to work out that could destroy your music collection. I had MAJOR PROBLEMS with this. When I ran a good chunk of my collection through it, it changed all of the file names to chinese and there is no to change them back. So beware. I contacted the company and they said they are aware of this problem. Thank god I had most of my stuff backed up because this could had been a huge catastrophe and loosing 1000's of songs....

Its a standalone. It just analyzes the files...and renames them if you choose to do so.
