Atm i have a few genre folders like house and techno rave etc that won't really go with my main track folder. But the main one got to 7k songs, takes forever to load in traktor and probably causes the odd crash.

I used to have a ton of genres and decade crates on my hard drive, but then dumped all my music into a single folder and created smart crates for all genres and decades. Smart crates make life simpler, for me at least.

but then how would you managed the songs for examples, I have folders for dance , hip hop, festival music, wedding, college fest and then subfolders in it and so on, if I dump all these songs in one giant folder, It will be a one long list and I will have to scroll from all the way up to down finding the songs, how would you manage that????

Hey thanks for this helpful video… looking forward to checking out the organization video… To help anyone else reading this… as a musician turned DJ… I wouldn’t rely 100% on MIK for key-detection because it’s only about 60-75% accurate. I ended up getting a refund because I saw no point in paying money just to have to go back and double check their results. Trust your ears…

Nothing is perfect, but studies have shown that MIK is the closest key detection software to date

Can I move my music to an external hard drive then use mixed in key and lexicon? If I have started using mixed in key and it’s taking some time to process, is it wise to go ahead and put the music on an external drive?

The MiK Energy level is pretty good for most Music other than say Rock or Metal, it mostly puts the a decent approximation number for each track or at least within the adjacent number which you would choose. I been using it for a while to add this number to the start of my "comments" however because screen real estate is limited on a typical Laptop i just add the "number" without tagging "energy" before it as it allows me to have more information viewable in the "comments" column, those extra 7 spaces count for a lot xD

Hi Jon, First of all, very good videos, informative and well paced. I have been using Lexicon for some time now, but I find the beatgrid analyzer too weak, it seems to be off more than it's accurate. While the same songs is bang on in serato. So at the moment my workflow is as follows: Mixed in Key Drag into dummy crate in Serato Analyse in Serato Import the crate to Lexicon Start working on metadata and so on Export back to Serato Feels like working a bit backwards in a way 🤔

Great question - If you wanted to, you can simply drag the MIK tracks into a lexicon folder and then sync to serato. Or, even better, keep the tracks in your downloads folder and use the 'incoming' section of your tracks to reroute all of your new music into smart folders that you've created in Lexicon. I've shown this in one of the series' videos!

Lexicon duplicates tool is amazing as it can tell a duplicate not just by the artist and title and mix, but by fingerprinting the track itself. I had gone through a period of getting older tracks but some were duplicates instead of actual different Remixes ie one track was called maxi mix another would be 12inch mix, when in reality they were the same version. Only way to know without Lexicon was to stack the waveforms or listen to them as sometimes the waveforms were just slightly different or had slightly different track lengths.

This is awesome! What is the benefit of Mixed In Key though? If lexicon can already analyse the key and danceability? Thanks :)
@officialJonDivine
Жыл бұрын
Great question! Mixed in key uses the actual audio dynamics of the song it’s analyzing to determine it’s energy and dance ability. Lexicon uses outside sources from the internet such as mixit and discorg. Ultimately, I trust MIK because of its lengthy and trust background in the industry
