SM001 At least a few years ago you’d have 2 x USB sticks and backed up with 20 odd cds just in case they played up.

I don’t miss playing out.

    Dan Feels like theres a lot of admin involved nowadays.

      SM001 Hannu’s post about updating drivers etc….. 🫣

      Both gigs went fine technically (not checked the recording for Sat yet). Friday played with an USB-stick on XDJ1000s, Saturday with my XDJ700s on a laptop with Rekordbox DJ. Both times with the version 7.0.

      I’ve had a fucking mare this weekend.

      Deleted all this year’s tunes.
      Recovered
      Ran through Platinum Notes
      Retagged everything - really just artist, tune and artwork
      Then mixed in key wrote over everything so back to retagging

      What a load of ole shite

        Mad_Cyril …just feels overkill for all tracks, in many cases you’ll be degrading a decent mastered file unnecessarily.

        Personally only ever use it on older/ripped stuff to make it sound better alongside new music, or if PN flags levels as being particularly low… also find its useful for putting early renders of productions through so I can get a listenable version for the car/headphones.

        ok stupid question - the fascists at work have banned me from using my work laptop to run Rekordbox which I use to make my playlists etc which I then export onto a USB which I then stick into the CDJ - easy. but can I do the same thing running RB on an iPad with a USB connector or do I need to get another effing laptop. ta b

            Not sure I’d detect whether or not a track needs it, so usually find easier to bung them through when I buy.

            Premastering if you like?
