Catalog reach

What a safe move actually reaches

The wheel is drawn as 24 equal segments. A safe move out of them is nowhere near equal. From 7A the three safe destinations hold 89,513 tracks between them; from 2B the same move reaches 34,106 — 2.6× thinner. And the biggest key is not the best-connected one: 8A is the largest we hold at 36,498 tracks and sits 4th for reach, because reach is a property of a key’s neighbours rather than of the key.

The basics

How harmonic mixing works

What is the Camelot wheel?

A circle of 24 keys that maps musical compatibility to a number-and-letter code. Outer ring is major (B), inner ring is minor (A). Keys next to each other on the wheel sound natural together, so DJs can mix harmonically without thinking in sharps and flats.

Energy direction

Moving clockwise around the wheel brightens the harmony — Mixgraph treats it as an energy lift. Counter-clockwise moves release tension and ease energy down. Our scoring engine has this baked in, so flows planned with energy intent get bonuses for the right direction.

When to break the rules

The boldest moments come from intentional clashes — tritone jumps, three-step moves, dramatic mood flips. Use them sparingly to mark a peak or a reset; the safe moves earn the right to take a risk.
