I find lyrics in the service but cannot acquire on rekordbox. Why?
To display lyrics, below information is needed:
- Artist name (mandatory)
- Title (mandatory)
- Album title
- Duration (sec)
Select a track you can't acquire lyrics and right-click it. Select [Acquire lyrics].
Make sure that the artist name and title are correct on rekordbox.
The duration (track length) is sometimes different from the original because of intro-edit, etc. In this case, please blank the duration and acquire lyrics.

I cannot select the motion as I like. Selectable motions differ depending on a track. Why?
This is because time display information of the lyrics data registered in the external service is different depending on a track.
There are 3 types of lyric data as follows:
- Lyric (word sync): Each word of lyrics has display time information.
- Lyric (line sync): Each line of lyrics has display time information.
- Lyric (no sync): Lyrics that have no display time information.
You can't change this information from rekordbox.
