Mix Club - The Remedial Class
Along_the_Wire Changing the tempo settings to +/- 6 is a massive game changer for me - who knew?! Thanks @Amps.
No worries.
If you stick at it, you should have a moment where it all becomes second nature, like driving a car, you won’t even think about it, thats when you can start really having fun.
I’ve searched high and low, but can’t work out how to re-order tracks in a playlist on Rekordbox - can anyone help a brother out?
In Serato DJ Pro you need to click on the hashtag line in the folder to re-arrange tunes. Not sure if its the same in Recordbox
Along_the_Wire …how do you mean re-order, you mean drag them into a different sequence, or have them go 99-1 rather than 1-99?
If it’s the latter, like Dutchy says you click the hashtag symbol at the top of the playlist and it should reverse the order.
As long as you are filtering via the number (ie. hashtag selected), you should be able to drag tracks into any order you like, but if you have a different filter criteria selected (BPM, Comments etc.), it won’t let you drag/reorder.
None of this necessarily reflects what you see on the CDJ/controller though, it’ll depend what search filter you have selected on there.
Unbroken1 I click the hashtag symbol and it orders them, or reverses them, but I can’t drag tracks up and down to re-order whilst hashtag is selected
You can only re-order a playlist when you have the column sorting set to the column called “#”
was the reply
I’ve worked it out - you have to click on the track with the mouse pointer in the hashtag column and it then drags.
Cheers fellas.
Yes, you need to drag and drop the tracks into the order you want them
Old-Dutch I get that, Dutch! You can’t select the hashtag column and then click on the title of the track and drag it, you have to drag it from the number in the hashtag column.

Good on you for sticking to the remedial brief Grant.
Don’t want owt fancy in ’ere
Not sure you need to do it by dragging on the actual track number in Serato - sorry mate no idea how Recordbox works

Not quite mixing but I want to change the file metadata (specifically Genre) on my music so that it matches my folders.
Then, when I import into Rekordbox the Genres will match what I have them filed as.
Will help me organise and create playlists
Anyone know anything I can use to do this without editing each file individually on a Mac?
Anyone here use Mixed in Key SW with their standard DJ SW?
Seems a bit like overkill to use both Rekordbox & Mixed in Key, given RB has it’s own key ID system.
Having said that, I’m keen on anything that can make my mixes less unpleasant, would be interested to hear any experiences of using both (or with Traktor etc…) and whether there’s any advantage?
Nice one.

I use it. Massive hassle but it’s very useful. Sometimes it can get it really wrong tho, so I’d only recommend using it for djing once you’ve hit a dead end when hunting for a tune for a mixtape.
