ChunkyEatsMyDinnerParticipantMixed In Key is awesome software ideal for this sort of thing.
It will tell you simply which songs are compatible with each other using the ‘camelot key’ method.Changing the key of an acapella can be done but often makes it sound a little strange.
Most DAW’s have features which will do this, I use Logic, and find the easiest way is to create an apple loop from the pella.If you are creating the song its probably easier to make the song match the pella rather than the other way round tho.

wfpaxtonParticipantTry tONaRT (http://www.zplane.de/index.php?page=description-tonart). Demo version gives a pretty good guess about the key of *.WAV files. Also tells you standard frequency the track is tuned to. My ears suck at pitch, so this is the only way I can match keys. Don’t know what the limitations are for the demo. Been working great for me for a few months so far.
Good luck!

acapellaKeymasterWe actually hold Mixed In Key data for the entire collection (and lots of other cool stuff).. I just need to see my developer to bring this to life from the test site to the live site

elyhessParticipantHey guys, new user here. ironically i am also writing a trance song looking for vocals in the key of F. This will be my 4th tune with vocals and its getting a bit harder to find unique ones/ ones i can actually use.
Should i just make my own acapellas? i was reading around a bit in the DIYS acapella section, seems like maybe my best bet to finding a unique one that fits my track is to shell out a track to the bare vocals.
Also, was wondering if this forum/website has a list of all the Acapellas ordered by key? i looked around a bit but didnt seem to find any
Thanks all!

ReplayR7Participantthere are also programms that can figure out the key of an audio file! I’m not sur if I’m allowed to name them(because of advertising)

matteoporceddaParticipantWith ableton you can ‘tune’ samples pretty easy

ombudsmanParticipantanother thing to consider is that you don’t always have to remix a vocal in the same key as the original song: you can reharmonize! use the same melody but put different chords underneath it. if your track is in F# minor, for example, you might try fitting a melody in A major on top of it. this is most easily accomplished with simple melodies, and it helps to know some music theory and/or have a good ear, but it’s something to experiment with.

earthwormyepParticipantor just pitch the acapella with something like melodyne or your DAW’s built in pitch shifter…. only if you’re into that sort of effect of course
