Bandmate (No matches found) No suggested patterns – EZKeys 2

[Dave Demay]

I’ve tried to search for anyone else running into this issue, but I dragged the audio performance into EZKeys 2 Bandmate and after the analysis was done I have no resulting playable midi or suggestions available, regardless of which styles I select, like pop/rock/country, etc. And I know the audio is well performed and not an unusual playing pattern or groove. It should be something easily assessed.

Any suggestions? This is my first encounter trying to use EZKeys 2 and I did everything correctly according to the walkthrough video. I’ve been waiting for this feature specifically and I must say that the wind has been knocked out of my sail.

So any help would be appreciated.

Did you drag a complete mix or a single instrument?

Toontracks bandmate audio analysis works best on single instruments, as it can pull the harmonic and melodic information plus transients better in oder to find suitable matches.
Pick the instrument that you would best like the keys to “play with”. While you can do complete mixes, it’s a lot harder for it to analyse. There is advanced AI/ML that can do reasonable music separation from mixes now, but it’s pretty intensive and not in Toontrack. It’s better to feed it the actual stems anyway, if you have them.

Reading the manual is also a worthwhile exercise. I just printed it and went all the way through it, learned the differences between the EZKeys2 UI and EZBass/EZdrummer…worth the time.

Disregard this post, as it is all of a sudden working fine. I’d delete the poast if I could. Haha

It was a single guitar instrument file. I dragged it again later and it worked. So no worries. Thanks

If this occurs again, please let us know. We have seen cases where this can happen if the audio file is very short or only contains junk data/a single short transient or something like that. Shouldn’t happen in normal scenarios, of course.

Hi… please help me avoid the playing of accents in bandmate generated file.  Each option begins hitting the accents before each chord change around midway through the file.

I’ve not been able to stop this from happening.  How can i rectify this?  Thanks in advance
