Boss101 Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Does anybody use Mashup 1.5 to create mash-ups? Is it worth a download and to buy it?Also my Mixed In Key only shows 10% of the keys from the music I scanned in Traktor.. Any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Posted June 5, 2013 Share Posted June 5, 2013 Ccanning music in traktor doesn't mean you've run them through mixed in key.You need to make sure you've analysed everything in mixed in key, then do a ID tag refresh in traktor for it to show up.And no, I don't use Mashup personally - most people tend to use a more fully featured DAW, such as Ableton, Logic Pro, FL Studio etc.However, you can read more about Mashup here - viewtopic.php?f=12&t=8604(also moved topic to digital & software - left shadow topic in production) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss101 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Share Posted June 5, 2013 I scanned the music in Mixed In Key but I'm not sure if I have done the ID tag refresh. I'll double check.Didn't know there was already a topic. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREMM1S Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Sometimes even the refresh wont work, you will have to delete the tracks from a given library traktor/rekordbox etc and re add them.The process should always be MIK and then put into a program.Also i haven't herd of anyone using mashup.

yizzle Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I've used Mashup. Didn't really like it personally. I use FL Studio. It can do everything Mashup can and more much more.Granted, Mashup is cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss101 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 Maybe it isn't showing because I already had the music into my Itunes library, scanned it then it was automatically in Traktor.I've had a quick shot at FL Studio. It was a bit advanced for me but I might give it another shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREMM1S Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 FL studio is not very friendly to the inexperienced user.I won't compare the capabilities of both but ableton is generally considered the easiest to start using, also alot more tutorials and what not for it.Sony acid is also another cheapy that to be honest was quite easy and decent when i used to use it.

yizzle Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 ^ Acid is a good idea.imo, FL is actually really easy to use as a beginner if you want it for mashups and stuff. Its like a lot of DAW's though.They cater for very basic use and very advanced use.Maybe Just try a few demos of all of em Boss101, see which one feels right.

Boss101 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 I've heard Ableton a few times so I'll see how I go with that. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yizzle Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Ableton is hugely popular at the moment. my advice, just try them all out and see what you really like. not what everyone is talking about at the moment.See what seems natural for what you want to do. because there are..a lot of good mash up artist on Ableton & FL & etc.a lot of good producers on both DAW's too.

Boss101 Posted June 6, 2013 Author Share Posted June 6, 2013 Still having trouble with Traktor and showing my BPM and the key.I had to reset my computer last night, so I put all my music back onto it today. Then analyzed it through Mixed In Key. It's not showing any BPM or keys anymore. Any tips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GREMM1S Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 Check your settings in MIK make sure they save the key info to the key and comment fields, also ensure you arent moving where your files are stored so the programs cant find them.Umm check in traktor that it is showing the key and bpm fields in your sort options.Delete all the files in the MIK library and re analyse.
