Key Detection is new function found in Song Surgeon Version 5. To our knowledge there is no other key/tempo change software on the market that contains this feature.
Ten years ago when Song Surgeon was first launched key detection was being worked on but wasn’t very good. At that time the best available product could detect key accurately about 35% of the time. The technology has improved and the accuracy increased substantially, in fact, the accuracy statistics have been reversed. Today the accuracy is in the 70-80% range.
The table below shows a comparison of products that contain key detection algorithms. This data was generated from a database of 1000 songs, across all types of music genres.
When a song is opened in Song Surgeon, the key of the song is detected and shown in the main User Interface, as show to the right. As the key of a song is changed, using the program’s key change functionality, the key of the song changes accordingly.
Song Tempo Detector
Song Surgeon lists all keys as flats. Why? Because every flat also has a corresponding sharp, and it simpler to just use one or the other (flats or sharps), rather than both and then trying to determine which is the more common of the two expressions.

Also, it is not uncommon for songs to modulate or change key within a song. In such situations, Song Surgeon analyzes the song and makes a global estimate. It assigns a key that is most compatible with the entire length of the songs. It does not and cannot determine and assign more than one key for each song.
The table above shows that Song Surgeon’s key determination ability is good, but it is not perfect. If you think that the key assigned to a song or file that you open is incorrect, Song Surgeon does give you the ability to over-ride the calculated key and substitute a different one.
