Question 1

What is AI DJ software and how does CRATELAB work?

Accepted Answer

CRATELAB is an AI-powered DJ software that automatically analyzes your music tracks for BPM (beats per minute), musical key using the Camelot wheel system, energy levels, and song structure. Our intelligent algorithms help you create perfectly harmonic mixes by suggesting compatible tracks based on key compatibility and energy flow — no manual analysis needed.

Question 2

How does harmonic mixing with the Camelot wheel work?

Accepted Answer

Harmonic mixing uses the Camelot wheel to match tracks by their musical keys. CRATELAB automatically detects each track's key and assigns a Camelot code (like 8A or 9B). You can mix tracks with the same code, move +1/-1 step on the wheel, or switch between A (minor) and B (major) modes for seamless, professional-sounding DJ transitions.

Question 3

Is CRATELAB cloud-based DJ software?

Accepted Answer

Yes, CRATELAB is fully cloud-based DJ software. Your audio files are securely stored in the cloud and streamed to any device with a browser. All track analysis (BPM, key, energy) happens automatically on our servers — no desktop installation required. Access your DJ library from anywhere.

Question 4

What DJ features does CRATELAB include?

Accepted Answer

CRATELAB includes automatic BPM detection, Camelot key analysis for harmonic mixing, energy scoring (0-100), track structure mapping (intro, build, drop, outro), AI playlist generation, cloud sync across devices, crate organization with color coding, transition compatibility scoring, and an AI DJ coach assistant.

Question 5

How do I generate an AI-powered DJ playlist?

Accepted Answer

Open the Playlists screen, select New Playlist, then choose AI. Pick a seed track, choose your energy curve (build, peak, cool), and target length. CRATELAB's AI builds a harmonically-matched, energy-shaped set in seconds using BPM matching and Camelot wheel compatibility. You can drag tracks to fine-tune the AI-generated playlist.
