Library Sync

• What is Mobile Library Sync?

  With Mobile Library Sync you can sync your rekordbox library when your computers and mobile devices are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
  This helps you to seamlessly prepare tracks for DJing. For example, you can use your computer at home while using a mobile device on the move.

• What is Cloud Library Sync?

  You can use Cloud Library Sync to sync your library on the cloud with the libraries on your computers and mobile devices.

  Upload tracks and videos to the cloud, then you can play them on other devices as well.

  For example, you can seamlessly use the same library on the computer you use for music production and the laptop you use for DJing. You can also prepare tracks for DJing using a mobile device when you're on the move.

  Here are the differences depending on the plan you chose to use.

  • Free or Core plan

  You can upload and sync up to 10 tracks that can be added to the [Trial playlist - Cloud Library Sync], which is a playlist for sync.

  Please note: The entire library will not be synchronized.

  • Creative plan

  The entire library will be synchronized.

  You can select individual playlists and tracks to then upload them to the cloud.

  This will depend on the Dropbox plan you're using for storage capacity when uploading files.

  • Professional plan

  The entire library will be synchronized.

  You can either select individual playlists and tracks to upload to the cloud, or automatically upload all your files.

  You can upgrade your Dropbox account to have unlimited storage capacity, so you can upload files without having to worry about the capacity.

• I want to switch the Dropbox account that I’m using for rekordbox. What should I do?

  You can switch your Dropbox account in:
  rekordbox for Mac/Windows: [LIBRARY SYNC] tab on My Page

  When you switch your Dropbox account, the changes will be applied to all versions of rekordbox for Mac/Windows/iOS/Android logged in with the same Pioneer DJ account.
  Please note that you won't be able to play tracks from the cloud storage of the previous Dropbox account because they're deleted from the local Dropbox folder.

• When Auto Upload is enabled, some of the tracks in some of my playlists won’t upload to the cloud. Why not?

  If the tracks in your playlist aren't on the PC/Mac or mobile device you're using, they won't upload to the cloud.

  Instead, upload the track from the PC/Mac or mobile device where it's stored.
