![]() ![]() ![]() In addition to creating my own unique mashups (which my audiences enjoyed by the way), I have been able to make my beatmixes far more interesting with the software, as well as make smooth transitions from one genre to another. I have used Mixed in Key ever since, and so far so good. Mixed in Key made my work so much easier and enjoyable since it analyzed my tracks and reported the key with more accuracy than my humble pitch pipe. It wasn’t hard to notice the flaw of not mixing in key. This was very time-consuming and even frustrating at times, especially when I really got into melodies and harmonies. Once found the key, I would then write it down. ![]() I used to key all my tracks with a pitch pipe before Mixed in Key was introduced in the market. This newly developed algorithm was released in Version 3.0, with the latest version being 8.5. ![]() This was done by combining the original Tornart with a custom-in house algorithm, for which Mixed in Key was granted a patent. Since May 2007, Mixed in Key has continued to make improvements on this key detection algorithm. The initial Tornart algorithm only had a modest Windows-based demo that was unable to process a huge collection of audio files at once. Not too long afterward, development for a version that would be compatible with Mac OS X began, with a version finally being released on June 4, 2006.Īs a key detection software, Mixed in Key runs on the Tornart key detection algorithm developed by Zplane, which has been used to make the Elastique real-time pitching algorithms that have been employed by well-known software such as Native Instruments and Ableton. The first version of Mixed in Key was developed for a Windows interface and consequently released on March 25, 2006. Mixed in Key can also be used as a tool in music production for analysis of samples. In addition to allowing you to edit track metadata (song title, artist) manually, it also lets you analyze all your WAV and MP3 files in readiness for mixing in key. Tension determines how closely the notes in the generated melody adhere to the notes in your chosen scale, and also identifies the ones that may or may not clash with the chords.Mixed in Key, sometimes referred to as MIK is a software for both Windows and MacOS that is used by top DJs and producers to simplify the technique of harmonic mixing. While this plugin doesn’t have Deep’s Shape control, it instead offers a Tension menu, along with options for Patterns. You can then change the rhythm and playing style to quickly generate a bass line that will work in key.Īrguably, the preset rhythmic patterns found in Captain Deep are geared towards House- and EDM-style productions, but there are still a lot of useful patterns that lend to other genres. Captain Deep also has a Shape control that changes the movement of the bass progression, so for instance, the bass notes could move parallel (following the roots of the chords), or against the chords to create some extra tension.įinally, Captain Melody, like Captain Deep, is a monophonic note generator that is tied to progressions created in Captain Chords. This means that as long as you keep your instance of Captain Chords open, Captain Deep will automatically detect your chord progressions and immediately offer you a “bass”-ic root progression that will follow your chords. Captain Deep utilizes interplugin communication technology. ![]()
