Key Detection Selection Tool
Key Detection Selection Tool Posted on: 02.07.2013 by Jerica Salava Why doesn't Traktor add a feature that automatically highlights the tracks in your collection/playlists that match the key of the track that's playing? Would be easy in 2 deck mode.It could be toggled on and off. If you were mixing more than 2 decks it could color code the decks playing. DECK A would highlight matching tracks in green and DECK B would highlight in red, Deck C in yellow, etc. > | |

| Brunilda Kora 04.07.2013 | If Traktor had native Smart playlists you wouldn't have needed to START this thread! |
| Jerica Salava 04.07.2013 | thanks for highjacking my thread. Happy 4th of July ! |

But if you have a specific idea for a mix (NOT necessarily when you're playing out), it helps to be able to interogate your library, rather than just browse it... It's the difference between playing music for a bunch of people, and having an idea for a (perhaps themed) mix. You p[robably won't see the benefit unless you're a little OCD... |
| Doreen Schurle 04.07.2013 | No, I understand what they DO, I just don't understand the point of them. Am I the only one who just sticks all of his tracks in genre-specific playlists then works his way through that selection in a semi-random order according to mood of the room? |
| Brunilda Kora 04.07.2013 | You should read up on them. Blew my mind... Are you familiar with MS Excel's IF function? It's similar to that. Basically, Smart Playlists are queries of your entire iTunes database, returning ONLY those tracks in your database that meet a condition or set of conditions. They are dynamic - so whenever you add a track to the iTunes library, every Smart Playlist will be updated if that track meets the conditions in the Smart Playlist. Like I said, it blew my mind when I started to read up on it. |

A lot of rock songs or even 80's pop song do this at the end of a song repeating the last chorus but moving it up 1 semitone |

| Jerica Salava 02.07.2013 | Wow That's so easy. C'mon man. And should use an abacus instead of a calculator. OKAY. I get it. It is easy. Sorry. Delete thread. But I bet Traktor does release this feature in the future. |
| Ashanti Andreacchio 02.07.2013 | how hard is it really? if you set traktor to show key in open key it's a matter of 2m=2m or 2m->2d 2m->1m 2m->3m and to move a 5th it's +-7 so 2m->9m or 2m->7m |
