12B E major
12B is the Camelot code for E major. It mixes cleanly with 1B, 11B, 12A, 2B, 10B, 1A, 11A — those are the keys that share enough notes for the blend to hold.
The four moves out of 12B
Same key. The safest blend there is — nothing to clash.
One step clockwise. Lifts the room without changing the mood.
One step back. Cools it off, same tonal family.
Relative major/minor switch. Same notes, different feeling.
Every key scored against 12B
These are the same numbers the Harmoniq engine uses when it sorts your library. 100 is the same key; anything at 55 or above is workable.

Two keys blend when their scales overlap. That is all harmonic mixing is — the Camelot wheel is just a faster way to see it.
Key is half the answer
Tempo still has to line up, and a key detector that is wrong is worse than no key at all. Harmoniq gives every result a confidence score, so you know when to trust it and when to listen first.
