Traktor to Rekordbox not working

Hi,

I have had this problem once before so did full, clean uninstalls and reinstall of Mixo and Rekordbox. Have tried again but still the same.


I have imported a Traktor playlist to Mixo and then Exported to Rekordbox. I have found the XML file as per the guidance and loaded that same xml via Rekordbox preferences.

The cue points have copied over saying n.n. which it's only started doing these past two times it hsan't worked properly but more importantly, the beatgrids are wrong. You can see in the playlist explorer the BPM column values are what they should be but in the track view the tempo is half what it should be.

Spent hours and hours on this last time it went wrong having got to Pirate Studio CDJs and seen it was all wrong. Big waste of time and money.

I came home and tried to regrid and set tempos correctly from within rekordbox and export to CDJ but it hadn't changed the half time tempo issue. Ended up being the worst gig of my life, really can't have it ever happen again.

Do you know what might be going wrong here, please, is this something you've seen your side before? I've attached a screenshot of what it looks like.

I'm on a Lenvovo Thinkpad i7, 16GB RAM

Windows 10 Pro

Rekordbox 6.7.0 free version

Mixo 0.7.0 gold subscription


Thank you

Hi there,

Traktor uses "n.n" for cues without names, so those will have been imported from your Traktor NML.

If you check your NML and search for the track with "n.n" cue names you'll almost certainly see they've come from Traktor.

Beatgrids are incredibly complicated and different in every DJ software unfortunately. MIXO will convert your first autogrid marker from Traktor to a tempo for Rekordbox, which helps align the start of the beatgrid. Other than that you're at the mercy of the DJ software.

As for the BPM, that's a little more confusing but if the track list is showing the correct BPM it means the XML contains the correct BPM.

To help you debug this further please:

1. Check MIXO contains the correct BPM.
2. Search for that track in the XML to see if has a <tempo> tag and if the BPM is correct.

Let me know what you find.

Remko
