Quickly find similar tracks during your performance
With the Similar Tracks feature, you can find tracks that match your current track in no time. You can set filters and options to adjust the results so they work for your library.
Finding a similar track is super easy! You don't even need well organized library for it, but it does help to refine your results.
If you stay within a certain genre, you should use the Genre Renamer under Health Check to make sure your genres are uniform. This makes finding similar tracks in the same genre much easier and your library will be tidier too!
Here's how to find a similar track:
Fill in your base track. This is what you're playing right now!
Set options if you want to finetune your results. The defaults will work just fine.
Press the Search button or press
Space(everything here can be controlled using keyboard! See Hotkeys below)
Now you'll see a list of similar tracks. If there were no results, try loosening the options. Click any result to make that your new base track.
