offer a real two-way sync or even better: directly use the Rekordbox library collection!.So Cross would have to implement the following in order to be ahead of Traktor: That is no real two-way sync.and hey, the 'Rekord Buddy' tool for Traktor offers a better two-way sync! Theoretically you can do as suggested above (export the Rekordbox lib and import it as a 3rd party lib back into Cross.īut sorry, that is not a real option - you are kind of 're-creating' your entire Cross library every time, you are loosing all the beatgrid data from Rekordbox and would have to analyze/beatgrid all the tracks again within Cross. Sorry, but I really do not understand this, as MixVibes developed both tools (Cross and Rekordbox)! older Funk or Soul tracks which have been played by human drummers) you loose it after the sync or you can not use the Snap/Quantize features anymore on the CDJs! Meaning, if you are using the dynamic beatgrid in Rekordbox (which is so nice with e.g. So after all my tests, I am not (so) willing anymore (as of today)!ġ) Cross does NOT support the dynamic beatgrid mode Rekordbox supports! As such the 2 systems (Cross and Rekordbox) are as incompatible as Traktor and Rekordbox are. The dynamic beatgrid is a major advantage of Rekordbox (I am using it a lot), but now I learn, that Cross is incompatible with it! The dynamic beatgrid is one major reason, why Rekordbox should be my master system and not Cross!.Changes made in a club (with a Rekordbox USB device) are instantly being re-synced with the Desktop Rekordbox application! So I want that of course to be re-synced with Cross as well!.So I was willing to even switch from Traktor to Cross - just because of the promised sync! when not DJing with Traktor or Cross in a club, but natively with CDJs and USBs). I am enforced to use Rekordbox if I want to use the new features of the new CDJs (e.g.The playlist management of Rekordbox is better than the one in Traktor.Why do you really need a Sync? The main reason for ALL DJs is, that they want to use only ONE system to maintain, organize and manage their tracks, playlists, meta-data, cue-points, beatgrids etc.ĭJs do NOT want to use 2 or more systems in parallel and do all the work again and again and even spend hours just to ensure, that these 2 or 3 systems are up-to-date and in sync -)įor Traktor uses (and I am still one as well, but in parallel I am also using Rekordbox) it was so promising to have a real sync. However, it is really disappointing, that the sync works this way and that the dynamic beatgrid mode is not supported. Many thanks for your answer, which clarifies all my questions.

Is a real 2-way sync including a full beatgrid sync at anypoint in time possible/planned? If this is all true, then the sync is meaningless, as the beatgrid editing is taking most of the time - and as such the sync is almost useless - or do I oversee something? Which means you have to analyse the tracks again in Rekordbox. So if you can not re-sync from Rekordbox to Cross it is all useless to my mind.ī) Rekordbox supports 2 beatgrid modes (normal and dynamic), but it looks like Cross only supports one mode? Why? and which?Ĭ) Can the (dynamic) beatgrid of Rekordbox be somehow imported into Cross?ĭ) It also seems, that with the Rekordbox Sync (from Cross to Rekordbox) the Cross beatgrid is NOT synced at all! live with the CDJs which is then synced into Rekordbox). It seems beatgrids are lost and it is impossible to import the Rekordbox collection into Cross!Ī) Is this true or is there any way to sync from Rekordbox to Cross?Īs a real DJ most changed are done in Rekordbox (resp. The current sync is just an import bridge within Rekordbox and as such a simple import of tracks and cue-points only. This seems actually to be a one-way from Cross to Rekordbox - but not the other way around?!

I just purchased the Cross Pro 3.0 version mainly because of the proposed Rekordbox Sync!īut I was a bit disappointed by the Rekordbox Sync feature!
