Notice that they go in order up to G and come back around to A. For example, Cmin = C D Eb F G Ab Bb and C (octave). The difference lies in the context and their relation to other keys.
SOUNDPLANT 45 DISTORTED SOFTWARE
My key detection software is me manually searching each and every track on Beatport, getting the key from there then adding it to the Key-infothingy in Traktor.īeatport seems to have only #, how am i supposed to know wich is wich? :uhoh:Ī# and Bb are essentially the same note. So a # can be either sharp or flat? This keeps getting more confusing! Plus, if you have it written to the beginning of the file name (which a lot of people do) and show them in your file browser (Windows Explorer, Finder, etc.) in alphabetical order, they'll also be in key order.
SOUNDPLANT 45 DISTORTED HOW TO
I'm sure your key detection software made a similar decision at some point so you could sort by key and have things show up in the right order without telling the program exactly how to sort them. It's easier to code the base pad selection that way. Maschine, for example, doesn't use flats to refer to notes…only sharps.

With computers, there are reasons to do a lexicographic sort on notes and since b is a letter and # isn't, if you don't pick one or the other for everything, sorting them doesn't put them in order. But AFAIK the decision was always arbitrary. Habitually, when there are two possible names, classical musicians would prefer one name over another (like slightly prefering G# to Ab or whatever). Where and how are they used, since they dont seem to be very common?Īb and G# are the same thing. However it raised another question about flat keys, since none of my songs seems to be flat. Nearing the end of the semester, finals and stuff!! I wish I recorded the 2-3 hr long mix I did a few days ago I felt it had some potential, good thing I have the history from VDJ lol.ĭefinitely! Thanks a bunch. Thanks, KLH! for sure, there will be those who contribute valid opinions and advice, but there will also be the nay-sayers which I welcome with open arms lol. I've found feedback to be positive and encouraging.

All of us invest ourselves in our work and it shows. You'll find DJF to be VERY supportive when it actually comes time to reviewing a mix. Thanks, I will be sure to PM you when it's up! There is always a place in my heart for hip-hop :) When I was first interested in DJing, my roots are from hip-hop because I love hip-hop (still do) and I wanted to spin for my bboy crew =P Now I'm a bit of everything everywhere, I have a wide range of tastes so I'm not exclusively a hip-hop DJ (can't learn how to scratch properly on my poop Vestax Typhoon lol).

If you are, PM me if you like when you've uploaded that mix and I'll give you some feedback on it. You a hip-hop DJ? I'm asking cos of your favourite track in your profile.
