# Auto Clip V3 – Release Notes 🎧

This release focuses on **DJ-style album teasers**, with a strong emphasis on
**old school trance**, phrasing, and harmonic flow.

## Highlights
- Bar-accurate cuts that feel like real DJ transitions
- Harmonic ordering using Camelot keys
- Consistent loudness using 2-pass normalization
- Fully local workflow (no cloud, no uploads)

## Ideal use cases
- Album / EP teaser creation
- DJ promo reels
- Trance and electronic music previews
- Quick rollcall or mini-mix teasers

## What’s new in V3
- Harmonic mixing (best-effort key detection)
- Phrase-aligned bar snapping
- Pre-roll bars for smoother transitions
- Improved loudness consistency
- Cleaner, more musical teaser flow

## Known limitations
- Key detection may be inaccurate on very pad-heavy or ambient tracks
- Downbeat detection is heuristic-based, not ML-trained

## Recommended settings (trance)
```bash
--avoid-intro 30
--bars 2        # rollcall
--bars 4        # mini-mix
--preroll-bars 1
--harmonic
```

Built for DJs who want **automation without losing musical control**.
