Traktor & Ableton - Key Sync (Max for Live)
For my fellow Hybrid DJs...
Finally a way to import 'Key' information from a playing track in Traktor into Ableton to automatically adjust & update Global Scale Awareness & individual scale devices.
This will allow you to make sure any midi/sequencers etc in your ableton set will always remain in key with whichever track your playing in Traktor and automatically update when you mix in a new song.
INCLUDES BONUS SCALE TO PITCH MAPPER
PLEASE READ:
This slight workaround method utilizes Traktor's Broadcasting capabilities using Icecast and will require formatting of song names in Traktor to include the key info i.e. Song name: "F#m - Losing It" Artist Name: "Fisher"
Instructions for both windows & mac for how to set up an internal Icecast Server are included. Full Tutorial Here!
Requires Ableton 12 Suite or higher
3 Max for Live Devices (Traktor Icecast Receiver, Scale Deployer + Bonus Scale to Pitch Mapper)
