Hello Everyone! Is there a way to remove the key in certain songs? There are tracks in which the key is almost not expressed, and they are good to use as transition tracks from one key to another. I would like to use some symbol in the "key" field of such tracks or leave it empty. So that you can quickly sort the tracks by key and quickly see such tracks

Sorry, dont understand you. Maybe I didn't express myself clearly. I mean, is it possible to insert any other symbol in the "key" field in the song tags, except for the key designation? I tried leaving the field empty, tried entering different symbols - the program still inserts the key it has determined.
loaded_song key "" - that command do nothing, except return key song to default

not sure what you're doing different, once a song is scanned and you call
browsed_song key ""
it blanks the key
maybe you're not auto writing to tag and therefore database key is updating from tag key.
browsed_song key ""

Apparently I don't quite understand what call
browsed_song key "" means. How to call it? I just made custom button with script browsed_song key "" and pushed the button.
And how to fix "not auto writing to tag"?
Thank you

calling a script is just pushing a button, twisting a dial or from an action poi.
You should know how to change a setting with script
load the song, once it's scanned, call this
( setting setTagsAuto on ? : setting setTagsAuto on & wait 400ms & setting setTagsAuto off ) & loaded_song key ""

That script do nothing for me. But i found the problem - there are two settings, "settagsauto -no" and "usekeyfromtag - yes". So now, If I switch usekeyfromtag to "no", I can simply delete the key from the tag and the field remains empty, as I need, but I lose all my manually defined keys, and the program uses its own, which are often incorrect. If after changing this setting I manually change the key again - the program already saves it correctly with the new setting. Is it possible to make some script so that the program re-saves all my manually defined keys, otherwise i have to manually rewrite key for each track now

Sorry, doesnt work as i need. After i use it, nothing changed. I still cant delete key from any song, because setting "usekeyfromtag" left "on" and after set it "off" - i can delete it but all keys are wrong again

I think your best bet would be to use a different field to tag your keyless tracks (User 1/2, Genre, Comment) and set up a quick filter to instantly filter to those tracks: https://www.virtualdj.com/manuals/virtualdj/interface/database/search/index.html#quickfilter
The "key" field would still display a key, but you could ignore that.

Another option would be to assign a colour to the keyless tracks, so they show prominently in the browser, and can be filtered by colour.
