To use Harmonic Mixing techniques, you need to know the key of the music you want to play. Our market-leading software scans your collection and matches the results to our groundbreaking Camelot Wheel system. It tells you what key your song or sample is in, and what will mix best with it. You don’t even need an understanding of keys or music theory… it’s as easy as 1, 2, 3
It’s so simple. Mixed In Key tells you at-a-glance which tracks and sounds will work together. You can stick to the exact same key, ie 5A to 5A, or move through the gears in a harmonically pleasing fashion. 8A can go to 7A, 9A or 8B smooth as a knife through butter. That’s because they are harmonic matches.
They’re also separated from 8A by one single step on the Camelot Wheel. Told you it was easy.
