I've read through the manuals and the forums...can't figure this out:

I can change both the key and the tempo together,
I can change the tempo without changing the key (using "master tempo" button)
But how do I change the key independently of the tempo?

Because I need to get some songs matched in tempo and key!

Thank you

I know exactly what you're talking about... in VirtualDJ there's a little knob on the skin you can use to change key with. As far as I'm aware this can't be done in ITCH.

There must be a way! Any work-around? I know in virtual dj, I can adjust the key and tempo together, then lock the key, then move the tempo back to where I wanted it. But that won't work here...

Or is there maybe some effect that I can get to change the key up or down by a certain number of semitones or %?
