Yes, absolutely!! Thanks for the tips, definitely going to take this into consideration, but not as indepth bc of my massive collection I have. But ill be making 'Smart Crates' with similar keys so it'll help with the process.
I know im asking randomly but does someone know a way to log back into an Instagram account..? I stupidly lost the login password. I would love any help you can give me
@Simon Colson i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm in the hacking process now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
This is great Pri! Another quick tip I found somewhere: I sort by BPM first, then CMD-click the KEY header. This enables a secondary sorting by key. Not as technical & useful as your method, but a useful quick fix.
I've had my intelligent Playlist like this for months but I didn't think about it the way you explained it. I'm not a musician but I want to mix in a flowing style so I can more easily take the crowd on that journey. I appreciate your though process. Good tutorial brah. DJ S1
A good shortcut in a pinch is using seratos key change function (although i wouldn’t say living with key sync ON isnt a good idea) there’s creative ways to bring it back to its original key after the transition.
I also mix in key. Mostly with taktor software. Every month i do mix for a radio station. For that reason i often play promos and new stuff released same month. Sometimes you need to change key plus 1 or minus 1 to have that certain track in your mix. For example you play a track with key 6M and want a track that is key 1M. Just change -1 and 1M turns to 6M. Sounds perfect with electronic music.
Great tips Joni. I will try this out. I mostly use the colours to determine the energy of my songs I listen to then and determine them with this rule Green =Low Yellow = Medium Red = High
have you ever wondered why no "you need to mix in key" video is obviously sponsored but none of them show you a comparison of what it sounds like the "with vs without" in key mix?
This is a great idea because Serato users are limited to 2 column sorting. It can be difficult even if ure searching within a crate defined by genre and/or BPM range. Brilliant! Have you considered making ur workflow more efficient by turning ur harmonic mixing crates as smart crates?
You’ll lose control of what songs you want in the crate that are that specific key UNLESS you add another rule to the smart crate AND an additional identifier for the songs you want in the harmonic mixing smart crate. E.g. add the text “#Good” in the grouping column of each song to identify the songs you want added to the harmonic mixing smarter crate. Then add the following rule: Grouping - Contains - #Good. Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!
Great Video ... maybe it could be nice if you did some more beginner/ intermediate video. Just showing the difference in mixing by BPM and going to key. Wayyyyy over my head🤯 but I hope I can continue to figure out how to do this. It seems like it would be nice mixing in key. I currently do everything by BPM. 🙌🏾
Great and smart idea Pri! I watned to ask what are your thoughts on how to not use this system and mix songs out of of key? Let's say mixing the current track (melody driven) with the new track (drum bass only) and vice versa? Do you go back to the "main library" or "collection" and just choose from there? Thanks I just subscribed!
Hi, I'm just trying to get my head around harmonic mixing to mix in key, I mean I'm not going to use all the time but going to try it out. I use Serato so going to setup some crates and add some rules. Am I right in thinking that if setup these key notes as a rule then they should mix in key harmonically? and then go from like a 2a to a 2b or from a 2b to a 3b, so stay major or minor when moving around the wheel, is that right? 12A 12B 1B 11B 1A 1B 2B 12B 2A 2B 1B 3B 3A 3B 2B 4B 4A 4B 3B 5B 5A 4B 5B 6B 6A 6B 5B 7B 7A 6B 7B 8B 8A 7B 8B 9B 9A 8B 9B 10B 10A 10B 9B 11B 11A 10B 11B 12B keeping it in the original bpm
@priyonjoni Can you explain how this is different from the Rekordbox / Pioneer Nexus feature "search by compatible key" functionality, or if that is basically a different implementation of this same method? (sincere question, not trying to dig on serato or rekordbox)
So this special playlist is for you “go to” music. Does that mean your your whole collection is thoroughly sorted out by the piano app .. Or you analyze it through MIK to leave the keys as is for the whole collection knowing 20% may be analyzed incorrectly. Sorry to write so much but hopefully you understand what I was saying.
@@priyonjoni you dont use MIK .. but do use Camelot when playing. Just your ordinary analyzing on serato for the main collection of music. Though this SPECIFIC playlist has the MIK PERKS.... right?
I don't get it. When you play on a piano, you don't go from the note to the adjacent note only. You play it. Space it. From A to C# to E is still A. As monotonous as possible?
That is correct. The reason is because, 5th intervals have the most notes that are the same. While the root note is different, the majority of the scale shares similar notes. Which is why mixing in key no on 5th intervals is more pleasing than say, going one semitone up or down.
Let me know if you want to see more playlist techniques!
We will 🙌🙌
Yes, absolutely!!

Thanks for the tip. At 2:37, I inserted a call out title explaining that sorting feature you mentioned.
Has been relocated my playlist based on your suggestions, thank you , please keep on.
I have been using this one year now and it's so helpful thanks
I always mix in key makes the mixes so much more clean.

Heck yeah! I love this idea
Awesome idea!!! Thanks Pri Yon🙏🏼👍🏼

Mind sharing the creative ideas on how to bring it back to the root key?
I would also be interested in ways to bring it back to the original key!
Yes sirr! That's what I need for my problem.
I also mix in key. Mostly with taktor software. Every month i do mix for a radio station. For that reason i often play promos and new stuff released same month.

Very cool! I started something similar but haven’t followed through as much as I should. Gotta get back at it.
Great tips Joni. I will try this out. I mostly use the colours to determine the energy of my songs I listen to then and determine them with this rule Green =Low Yellow = Medium Red = High

Mixed In Key has been out for 15 years, I bought it in 2007.
Smart crates saves me time
How do you use the Smarts Crates feature?

@priyonjoni Can you explain how this is different from the Rekordbox / Pioneer Nexus feature "search by compatible key" functionality, or if that is basically a different implementation of this same method? (sincere question, not trying to dig on serato or rekordbox)
I just pick 40 bangers out of 200 songs. Make a folder and just mix down the keys. 1A/1B - 12A/12B.

I don’t use MIK. It’s not my entire collection, but basically everything I’ve downloaded since 2012.

Correct

how can you not mix in key
and who the hell blurs their playlists out lol
Get your own playlist is why😂
🥴🧠
Just found your channel good info , is there any chance you could do a video of this for reckordbox?
