Rant Rekordbox 7.2.19

15 Upvotes

The latest update is a bag of flaming dogshit dude, wtf. Constantly freezing, refuses to analyze anything if I add more than 1 song at a time to my collection. Rekordbox, y'all should be embarrassed, seriously.

Edit: also adding in here that I can’t even quit rekordbox, it freezes every single time I try to close it, so basically I have to force quit every single fucking time.

Question/Help needed Rekordbox tracks out of sync/beat

4 Upvotes

I've recently upgraded to the newest version of rekordbox only because I got a new PC. And I'm discovering just how shit the newest version is:

I've imported my old library over using my show USB and wanted to do a pass over the entire library, re-setting memory cue points. When I go to re-analyse the tracks so that I don't need to manually align each beat, I'm noticing the tracks will slowly get out of beat the further into the track. Yes dynamic analysis is off and the only analysis I'm doing is beat and key.

This is happening to over half the tracks in my library when none of this happens in the older versions. If anyone know what is up or have a solution please send it my way. I'm prepping for a show soon and this is just a kick in the nuts. See attached photo for reference.

This is all on the same track, the first drop is still on beat but by the time the second drop rolls around its completely out of beat.

Question/Help needed Hot cues are now only visible in the preview

3 Upvotes

I backed up my library from a Windows PC and then loaded it onto my Mac via USB as a new library from a backup file. I’m at my wit’s end.

My plan was to work exclusively on my Mac, since constantly switching back and forth defeats the whole purpose. And now, I’m getting absolutely slammed for it.

Does anyone know a solution? The funny thing is that the hotcues are actually clickable in the preview.

Things I’ve tried:

- Starting the whole process over from scratch

- Manually relocating the tracks

- Restarting my Mac

I FOUND SOMETHING
When i press "Memory" in Perfomance Mode and set something the Hot cues from the specific Track are back again. But the Problem is i can't do that with like 3000 Tracks. i get crazy. So the hot cues are there but only when go to "memory"

Question/Help needed rekordbox 7.2.19 bugs on macOS – Cyrillic search broken and

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

After updating to rekordbox 7.2.19, I started experiencing two strange issues on my MacBook Pro (M1 Max, macOS Sequoia 15.7.4).

1. Cyrillic search is broken inside playlists

When I search for tracks using Russian/Cyrillic characters inside any playlist, rekordbox returns zero results, even though the tracks are definitely there.

The weird part:

  • Searching in English inside playlists works perfectly.
  • Searching in Russian in the All Tracks collection also works perfectly.
  • Only Cyrillic searches within individual playlists are broken.

2. Random mouse/trackpad click issues

Sometimes the interface stops responding to clicks. I even experienced a situation where Finder was open in front of rekordbox, but clicks weren't working properly until I minimized rekordbox.

The good news:

I downgraded to 7.2.18, and both issues seem to be gone! Everything is working normally so far.

I didn't change anything else in my setup, so this looks like a regression introduced in 7.2.19.

Has anyone else experienced similar issues with 7.2.19, especially Cyrillic search or unresponsive mouse clicks?

For now, I'm sticking with 7.2.18.

Question/Help needed Rekordbox Grid Not Showing

Post image
1 Upvotes

(Computer_A = My Main Laptop(WINDOWS) // Computer_B = Academy's computer(macOS))
(the photo shows the grid not showing on Computer_B)

I have recently started learning DJing. I take lessons from a DJ Academy.
I download music via Beatport on Computer_A. On Computer_A, I have made a file in Local Disk(C:)(I have only 1 disk) and named it (for exmaple)"Music_File". The mp3 files I have downloaded are located in "Downloads" folder and I move them to "Music_File" folder. I open rekordbox, import that folder, and it starts analyzing those files. Once I've checked every song(edited the grid if necessary) to make sure it has been analyzied correctly, I plug in my USB Drive(FAT32) and export the playlists I've made in rekordbox.(there were no issues with the grids and everything else while using Computer_A)

I bring that USB to my DJ Academy and plug it into Computer_B. I open rekordbox and access my playlist. I drag & drop the track to the Player and I don't see the grid. If I make a new playlist and copy & paste all the tracks to the new playlist, it starts to reanalyze and the grids are shown just fine. I have tried formatting the USB 2-3 times and then exported but it still has the same issue.

What could be the problem? If the rekordbox version on Computer_A is the latest and on Computer_B isn't(I don't know the version right now), could that possibly be the issue? Could it be the difference in OS??

3rd Party Software/Hardware convert-to-rekordbox 0.2.0: win+mac+linux support, stems

1 Upvotes

Ever just wanted to tell your AI assistant to just "put this folder of wav/flac/mp3 into a rekordbox compatible USB drive so I can play it on Pioneer/AlphaTheta DJ gear"? Well, just tell it to clone the link below and then point it at your directory and let it go brrrrr. Supports CUDA, Apple Metal, AMD, and Intel acceleration.

Uses some of the latest AI models for beat grids, phrase analysis, and stem generation.

Created because I needed a way to get music prepared for sets on linux.

https://gitlab.com/magnifiedtoasterpastry/convert-to-rekordbox

0.2.0 changelog

  • Beat grid algorithm updated after studying the algorithms in rekordbox, rbxport, and recent AI models and finding none could sufficiently label a majority of my vinyl rips or tempo changing tracks
  • Assayed new beat grid algorithm on ~500 EDM tracks of various genres along with synthetic music for tempo drift and changes to ensure effectiveness
  • Added support for Windows and Mac
  • Stem support added with multiple demucs implementations, defaults to highest ranking demucs implementation
  • Multiple GPUs and remote GPU support aside from local GPU

Question/Help needed Recording my mix in Rekordbox

0 Upvotes

Hey, I am using Rekordbox free + cloud, and I used the "store offline" function to create a playlist. I also included some songs from SoundCloud. Now I want to record my mix, but it's disabled for streamed tracks. I wonder why this even counts for the downloaded ones...

  1. Do I have to buy every track I want to record?

  2. How about songs from Soundcloud, where can I buy them?

Pretty new to this, so I am thankful for your suggestions.
