Mixed In Key has released version 11.2 Pro, and it is a serious upgrade for anyone who mixes, edits, or prepares music for performance. Known for setting the standard in key detection and harmonic mixing, the new version adds tools that push it far beyond a library-organizing utility. With stem separation, advanced pitch shifting, and new mashup and DJ mix modes, 11.2 Pro is built to speed up your workflow and give you more creative ways to test ideas before you step on stage or open your DAW.
Available now at mixedinkey.com/pro, this update is designed for DJs and producers who want the ability to create countless new mashup ideas, test transitions and curate playlists faster, with more precision.
Stem Separation and Mashup Mode: A DJ’s New Playground
The biggest addition in 11.2 Pro is stem separation. You can now isolate vocals or instrumentals directly inside Mixed In Key, export them, and drop them into a DAW or DJ software. This opens up new ways to create mashups, test acapellas over tracks, or prepare stems for live remixing without juggling extra software.
Mashup Mode ties these features together. You can load two tracks, instantly test how they fit, and use stem separation and pitch shifting to refine your blend. Favorite combinations can be saved for later, making it easy to build a library of mashup-ready material. For producers who also DJ, this creates a seamless bridge between creative ideas and set-ready material.
DJ Mix Mode is another standout. It lets you quickly preview transitions based on key, BPM, and Mixed In Key’s energy level system. Instead of guessing which tracks will work together during a set, you can plan and test combinations in minutes, then export playlists ready for any major DJ platform.
Pitch Shifting, Loops, and Workflow Upgrades
Mixed In Key 11.2 Pro also introduces real-time pitch shifting, which not only adjusts full tracks but can be applied to stems. If you find a vocal that would work perfectly a semitone up, you can make the adjustment instantly and keep building.
The new looping feature adds another layer of speed. You can lock in specific sections of a track, making it easier to layer acapellas, build mashup intros, or test transition ideas without constantly scrubbing through full songs.
An Idea Filter rounds out the update, allowing Mixed In Key 11 Pro to refine the number of tracks it selects from in Mashup mode or DJ Mix mode. It’s a useful feature for selecting a specific playlist of tracks, or tracks with the same Energy level or BPM range for the software’s algorithm to create mashup or mix ideas from. For example, you could make a playlist of classic house vocals and tech house beats, and use the Idea Filter in Mashup mode to generate mashup ideas from this specific playlist.
Why This Update Matters
By integrating stem separation and pitch shifting directly into the software, Mixed In Key 11.2 Pro removes several extra steps that used to require other tools. For DJs, this means faster prep and smoother set building. For producers, it’s a way to generate mashup ideas and experiment with stems before you even open your DAW.
With key detection accuracy trusted by names like David Guetta, KSHMR, and Kaskade, Mixed In Key continues to be the software that turns preparation into a creative process, and it achieves this with a one-time purchase (no monthly subscriptions or microtransactions!).
