Tutorial #1 'Harmonic Mixing using Camelot Notation'
Mixing key for mac catalina
Harmonic Mixing is a technique that I use to transition between songs while I am DJ'ing. I learned this technique from watching DJ Sasha, Armin Van Buuren and Miguel Migs. Many famous DJs currently use harmonic mixing to supplement their beatmatching technique. Although harmonic mixing seems complicated at first, it is actually very simple.
Harmonic mixing is a process of mixing between harmonically compatible songs. When you play the same song back-to-back, the mix will always sound pleasant because the key and the tempo are the same. When you play a Madonna vocal in D major on top of a Kylie Minogue vocal in B major, this could get a little sour. Madonna's vocal is not in the same key as Kylie Minogue. Most people can often tell when something is out of tune, especially if it's two singers.
Imagine that Kylie and Madonna are recording together in the same studio. They perform a duet -- Madonna sings in a low voice and Kylie sings in a high voice, but in the same key, perhaps D major. Both artists sound great together. So why don't duets like these work in a club, but succeed in the music studio?
In Western music, there are only 24 possible keys. In the first instance, the two keys, D major and B major, do not mix harmonically. In the studio scenario the two vocals in the duet complement each other because they are in the same key. By knowing the key of the song, you can mix it harmonically with other songs once you understand Camelot Notation.
Camelot Notation tells you which keys will result in harmonic mixes. Using Mixed in Key, you can find the key of each song and translate it to the corresponding Camelot code. With Madonna and Kylie studio duet in D major, the corresponding code would be 10B. But how do you know which mixes are harmonic?
Let's stay with our Madonna and Kylie studio duet in 10B. This key is harmonically compatible with the same key, 10B, the key above it, 11B, and the key below, 9B. Look at the chart like a watch and compare the keys to hours. Harmonically compatible mixes are only at the same hour, one hour ahead, and one hour behind. If you changed the studio duet to match Kylie's original B major vocal, it would become 1B. This would mix harmonically with 12B, 1B and 2B.
Using this method does not require you to stay in the same key for the entire night. Movement around the Camelot circle can be done one step at a time. You can also move between the inner and outer circle, as long as you stay in the same digit or hour. For example, 2A and 2B are harmonically compatible. You can mix between 2A and 2B and start moving along the outer circle. Your next mix can move back down to 2A, remain in 2B, or move to either 1B or 3B.

This traversal of the circle makes every mix harmonic. You can play songs in different keys, find harmonically matching acapellas and remain 100% in key. Mixed In Key supports the Camelot Notation. It can detect the exact key of every .MP3 and .WAV song. Writing these Camelot keys next to your CD sleeves or vinyl sleeves can tell you quickly which songs go well together.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Take care,

You may have heard 'mixing in key', or 'harmonic mixing', mentioned by DJs. You may even be dimly aware of what it means – that it's about making sure tunes match musically in order to mix them more smoothly.

But if you've never done this before, you may think it's hard to do, or that if you're not able to play a musical instrument, you'll not be able to work out all the stuff with scales and notes that's necessary to achieve this type of mix. Luckily, nothing could be further from the truth, and today, we'll show you how you too can use harmonic mixing in your sets.

To start using harmonic mixing, you need to achieve these three steps:

1. Tag your songs with their musical key

To mix in key, you need to know the key of your tunes! There are several ways you can do this. If you use Virtual DJ, you're in luck: The software will work out the musical key for you and display it in the track information box. If you don't, you need to have some software work it out for you. Software like Rapid Evolution 3, BeaTunes and Mixed in Key will do this for you – Rapid Evolution 3 is free, but many professionals swear by Mixed in Key (see below for why).

Depending on your DJ software, you may decide to have your chosen program tag the key information in a custom key field of the MP3 tag, in the comment field, or in the filename. The important thing is that you work out a way of getting the key information into your MP3's meta data or even its file name , so you can display it when you're browsing your tunes.

2. Get the Camelot Wheel and understand how to use it

This is the big secret. Use Google Images to search for 'Camelot Wheel' (get a large version) and download your own copy (hint: set it as your laptop background wallpaper so you can minimise your DJ software to quickly refer to it when playing).

This shows you every musical key there is. All of your tunes will have been tagged with one of those keys by your software of choice or when analysed by Virtual DJ.

Whether your software used standard notation (C major, D minor etc), or Mixed in Key-style notation (12B, 6A etc), you can use the wheel just the same, as it covers both systems. (In Virtual DJ, you can click on the key onscreen and it will switch between these two notations.)

Here's how it works: You find the key of the tune you're currently playing on the wheel, and you can mix any tune into it that is the same key, or an adjacent key on the wheel. So you can move left or right one segment, or in or out one segment (you can't move diagonally). These mixes will sound great, because the keys are the same or related.

3. Apply it to your mixing

Now you've tagged your tunes and you understand how to use the Camelot Wheel, here's some practical tips to help you apply your new-found knowledge to your mixing:

  1. Switch your software's keylock feature on – As we discussed last week in our keylock introduction, harmonic mixing relies on this feature, which holds the key steady when you've beatmatched your tunes
  2. Choose tunes that are close in BPM – Keylock sounds best on tunes it doesn't have to work too hard on, which are always those close to the BPM of your current tune
  3. Work around the wheel to play through your collection – If you order your collection by key, you can easily work through your setlist mixing adjacent keys as you go
  4. Use your ears! – Nothing in digital DJing is a magic fix for not using your ears. Sometimes key detection software gets it wrong; sometimes keylock distorts tunes beyond what you'll deem to be acceptable; sometimes tunes sound great in totally unrelated keys; and just because tunes are in the same, key, it doesn't mean mixing them together will sound any good! So always listen critically and don't rely blindly (should that be deafly?) on key detection software

Bonus power tip

As you can see from your Camelot Wheel, there are two ways of expressing musical notation. You may have noticed that with the 'letters and numbers' notation system, adjacent segments also have adjacent numbers or letters. So 11A is adjacent to (and will always mix into) 10A and 12A; and any B will always mix into any A and vice versa, as long as they share the same number.

This notation system is native to Mixed in Key, which is one reason why that software is such a popular choice as a key detection program.

Using this system, you don't even have to have the Camelot Wheel to perform harmonic mixes, as it's so simple to remember the method. Just always mix up or down a number, or from an A to a B or vice versa with the same numbers.

So that's it – your quick 1-2-3 of harmonic mixing. If you're not already experimenting with key mixing, do it – it's one of the great leaps forward for digital DJing and done properly, it can really improve how your DJing sounds.
