I'll be answering all the technical questions I can on REDDIT so please post any technical questions there so I can keep all the information in the same area for future readers. I'm sharing this information with all of you to give back to the community that has given so much to me.
#REKORD BUDDY ALTERNATIVE SOFTWARE#
It is phenomenal software and you shouldn't have to miss out just because you're rocking Windows. I tested this with my own library over the weekend, and was able to successfully get my 6000 songs migrated from Traktor to Serato, with all the crates, playlists, grids, hotcues and regular cues, etc all intact. I'm a technically inclined Windows-user with a knack for solving "problems", so I've put together a guide on Reddit on getting Rekord Buddy 2 to work for you, using a Virtual Machine as a stepping stone.

Particularly if you’re an organizational nut like myself and/or really into trying all sorts of software, I can confidently say that Rekord Buddy 2.0 is worth checking out.Įditor’s Note: We’ve reached out to Next Audio Labs to see what they’ll allow us to show / tell you all about in the new software and we’ll update this article or create a new one when we get details.As some of you may have heard, Rekord Buddy 2 (the library management software developed by Next Audio Labs which can read your library and sync the cues and grid information across other DJ software) was released as an "early release candidate", but it was only released for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion and above, leaving Windows users such as myself thirsting for their own release, slated for early next year. The software does do exactly what it advertises, and I am completely satisfied with my purchase. Unfortunately as part of the terms of the beta I am not able to give many details on the software in its current state. I’ve purchased the beta license for Rekord Buddy 2.0 and have spent some time with it. The thinking is: users willing to pay the cost of the software up front are more likely to be invested in the beta process. Next Audio Labs wants beta users that are serious about using the software and willing to actively report on any issues while still in a testing phase. This will certainly prevent some DJs from joining the beta – but that’s also the point. Cleverly, the current purchase price is discounted to try and entice more people to join the beta.

The software license for the beta will extend into the full release version. Unfortunately, there is no Windows alternative so for the moment, it's not possible to automatically import playlists from Rekordbox to Traktor using a Windows computer. We're going to come back to it a lot throughout this tutorial.

With this software, DJs can be more prepared to play on any of the three major DJ platforms without more investment in library prep time.
