4.1.1 update Rekordbox - > KEY analysis still not accurate...
i was hoping with some new updates they will fix that, but i guess i need to wait more and more :(
MixVibes has more precise Key detection.

Really? I've found it to be quite accurate–still better than Traktor. However, Mixed in Key is my go-to and I simply use it as a sort column (comments) and ignore using the "Traffic Light" system implemented with Pioneer's key detection.
I am fine with the results. It always could be better but still the RB analysis is one of those better ones when compairing with other applications.
Its shame that it doesn't allow writing the tags directly in camelot notation as its far more readable than the musical notation so I have to rewrite it manually every time but its not a big deal. The traffic light system and matching using the camelot is functional so I am ok with that. No software will ever be 100% (in the 2015 test made RB 4 was about 70-80% accurate what is pretty impressive) so if you have doubts about accuracy for a particular track, just make the analysis using your ears and adjust the tag manually...
I didn't say RB is totally wrong, but while I'm listening some of the new tracks i just add in RB i notice some of them shows KEY - "X" but sounds strange and than compare them with Beatport & Mixvibes both looks and sounds KEY "Y"
Anyway... hope i will continue using RB with pleasure :)
Not sure about the Mixvibes but the Beatport's algorythm is known to be one of the worse...
Nice comparison is here http://djtechtools.com/2015/11/16/key-detection-software-comparison-2015-edition/
