Waves Ships Key Detector Plugin

US AI-powered tool offers key detection for any sample, track or full mix 28/06/23

Waves Audio is now shipping the Waves Key Detector plugin, which they describe as an AI-powered tool capable of precise key detection for any sample, track or full mix. They tell us that Key Detector optimizes workflow by integrating seamlessly with Waves vocal tuning and harmonizing plugins. Here's more details direct from Waves...

Waves Key Detector is an indispensable time-saving tool for all music makers. Finding your key has never been easier. With the powerful Neural Networks® engine developed by Waves, it accurately determines the root note, identifies whether the scale is major or minor, and also presents two alternative scale options.

Using Key Detector is simple: just insert Key Detector, play the track, and let the plugin's neural networks engine analyze the track: In seconds, you will receive the song's key / scale. Key Detector can give you the accurate key, even if the track is slightly off-key. Key Detector will even suggest the two next most likely scales: simply click "Alternative Scales" to see them.

In addition to finding the key of any track, Key Detector also serves as the perfect companion to Waves' vocal tuning and harmonizing plugins: For smooth vocal tuning and harmonizing workflow, you can effortlessly transmit the detected key to the Waves Tune Real-Time, Waves Tune, Waves Harmony, and OVox Vocal ReSynthesis plugins. Just click the "Transmit" button, and the detected key will be sent to all active instances of these plugins.
