rekordbox overview
rekordbox is the best way of preparing and managing your tracks, be it at home, in the studio, or even on the plane! It allows you to import music from other music-management software using the Bridge function, or by simply adding them into the software for management. rekordbox will work out the BPM and allow you to set hot-cue and loop points into the track, utilizing a full beat grid view in advance, as well as color-coding your music and adding all the ID3 information so it appears automatically later on any rekordbox-enabled Pioneer DJ player.
Working with rekordbox also means that when tracks are exported to a USB key or SD card (CDJ-2000NXS and CDJ-2000 only), the waveforms are loaded instantly. Record your cue, loop, and set history during your set and recall them in rekordbox later. If you enable the Quantize feature within the CDJ-2000NXS/CDJ-2000/CDJ-900NXS/CDJ-900, then rekordbox makes loop and cue points snap to the beat (1ms accurate), ensuring beat-perfect loops and cues. The database layout within the software can also be customized to suit individual DJ style which enables personalized layouts when browsing on your Pioneer player.

Honestly... If plex can scour the web and automatically tag my video files. It's kinda frustrating that between this, BeatPort Pro and Some discogs id3 tagging plugins, noone has been able to create a streamlined polished app that hunts for tags and covers, sets bpms, automatically sets starting beatgrids (trim the silence, duh!) In the end DJs dont really trust anything unless they're traktor / serato folk and even then... please dont make DJs import itunes or even have the option to touch that miserable bloated app. SOMEONE WRITE A DJ-CENTRIC LOGICAL DATABASE, WITH NO FLUFF. I dont need sync (thats what we're there for.) What we need is fast automatic tagging and reasonably sized images for covers. Have the software be smart enough to CONVERT (no transcoding to crap quality) files to a format the locally detected setup supports (or give us an option) for what it will be played on. Simply stating FLAC files are only supported by blah blah is not a feature it's a nagging notification. Just do (lossless) conversions and make my life easier. No wonder vinyl has become so popular again.. The current digital options aren't really ready for prime time. LAME PIONEER!! VERY LAME!!
I just cleaned up my computer when i was suckered into downloading a similar FREE programme..
In addition today is Friday the thirteenth
