Traktomizer Audio Analyser software for OS X accurately measures danceability, acousticness, instrumentalness, valence, duration, energy, key, liveness, loudness, speechiness, tempo and time signature, for songs, tracks or passages of all kinds of music and speech.

Levels for anger, relaxation, happiness, sadness, masculinity and femininity, are measured and rated according Std. ground-truth SVM models.

Genre and sub-genre are also identified and reported together with 13 opportunistic neighbours for an ordered tally of 15 genres most likely to generate more song plays.

The main goal for Traktomizer is to extrapolate a reliable and useful response about the commercial viability of a premaster mix, usually during the final stages of production editing, so that the Producer(s) may be alerted to crucial audio optimization opportunities, the adjustments of which are expected to significantly-positively affect play-list inclusions and discoverability on all major streaming platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, Google Music, Pandora and hundreds of others.

In the fullness of time Traktomizer (Music Producer) Users may expect greater profits and better returns on the investments they make in publishing music.

 

Traktomizer is made for MacOS 10.13.x and later (ie: High Sierra, Mojave)

No. Traktomizer is a stand-alone Apple-OSX application only. Works to make a plugin version available are underway. In the meantime, you are welcome to register your interest for the plugin version by submitting a support ticket.

No, your purchase of Traktomizer includes access to all API data used by the application.

A Spotify Artist Account is recommended but Traktomizer will analyze audio with or without one. 

Also, Spotify does not need to be available in your country for Traktomizer to work properly, except that we may not be able to produce benchmark playlists for you.

If you do not have a Spotify Artists and or Next Big Sound Account (which are both free), Traktomizer will eliminate some dependant calculations such as your Artist Hottness Rating compared to Benchmark Artists.

We used to provide trial software but that was having an impact on our paid users API data access speeds – because Traktomizer utilizes API data which is limited to a number of queries per second. API quantities are sufficient for our paid users.

Users receive lifetime free updates with their purchase of Traktomizer which includes all minor and major updates. Traktomizer remains Beta software as development work continues.

We endevour to keep our users on-par with a very fast-changing music metadata landscape and the various data-access points which may become available or may be discontinued by the APIs with which Traktomizer partners.

We support our users with direct email and a Support Ticket System for questions, problems, suggestions, comments etc.

We usually reply to support tickets in less than 12 hours and no more than 24 hours, depending on current ticket volumes.

Support tickets are available at https://traktomizer.com/submit-support-ticket

We also update our website with supportive information, key issues, advice and learning as and when such information becomes available.

You can also opt-in to our free email newsletters which provide supportive information, ideas, advice and suggestions.

Our EULA is included with your download file and can be found at the top level of that container, either DMG for MAC or ZIP for Windows.

And you may also read it below:
