i downloaded 'break my bank' by new boyz, and i see Bb between the track title and the elapsed time: imgur.com see pic.

it's version 1.7 it's on some of the tracks from mymp3pool.com

It's the track's key, according to itch.

oh ok (i feel a bit stupid). i don't know why i didn't read it as B flat, i guess i'll have to look around and see if other tracks on the site are labeled this way.

thanks.

mmm.... more according to the mp3 key tag IMHO

I don't think ITCH has a key detection algorithm yet... none of my tracks show the initial key when loaded.

indeed

Last week, I noticed when selecting what info I wanted diplayed in the song browser an option for key.
Socross 2:46 AM - 14 July, 2010
My bad, I thought itch was doing that now.

Yeah, when I read that on the beta release I was excited at the prospect of ITCH detecting key ...a bit of a let down - especially after Serato hinted at that on their facebook page. Still, sorting by Key will be useful if that can be a crate column.

Or just listen to what key the song is in and edit the field yourself. I didn't know itch supported the key field.

I think you need to be a very experienced musician to do that.

"Absolute Ear": less than 0.001% of the population can identify a tone by ear (and I guess fewer can identify a chord).

Congratulations! :)
Awesome steve 10:27 AM - 15 July, 2010
and 99.999% of the people who say they can do it, couldn't do it on the first guess...
livefast 12:23 PM - 15 July, 2010
i can identify all your tone, and it's out of whack hahah
djcerla 3:39 PM - 15 July, 2010
correct name in English is "Absolute Pitch": en.wikipedia.org

Do not confuse with "Absolute Bitch".

Which unfortunately exists in a much higher proportion of people than Absolute Pitch ;)

I don't know about you, but I don't like having absolute bitches get pissy when I won't play 3 Gaga songs in a row..
breakermixer 7:35 PM - 15 July, 2010
Hahaha. I´m joking bro ;)
