    Default cdj900/usb help!!!!

    I just purchased 2 cdj900's and i'm trying to utilize the usb feature. I bought 2 sandisc cruzer 8gb memory sticks. I plugged one into my pc and put music files on it. When i plug it into the cdj900 it reads the stick but says the folder is empty. NO MUSIC! Can anyone help me with this?

    Are they MP3 files? And are you using Rekordbox?

    It might be worth a try, give it a go and come back if it still doesn't work.

    create folders on your usb. You might have too many tracks on the usb. you want like 100 tracks to a folder or else it can screw up or take forever to read.
