Key Detector

Finding Your Key Has Never Been Easier

Key Detector is a time-saving tool for all music makers. Replace manual work with AI-powered key detection, for any sample, track or full mix.

Using Waves’ Neural Networks engine, Key Detector will provide you with a root note, a scale (major or minor), and two likely alternatives.

Key Detector is also the perfect companion to Waves’ vocal tuning and harmonizing plugins: Waves Tune Real-Time, Waves Tune, Waves Harmony, and OVox. Just click the “Transmit” button, and the detected key will be sent to all active instances of these plugins. Related plugins need to be updated to the latest v14 release for this feature to work.
