Here's to answer your 3 questions first:
1. Yes, I would suggest changing traktor's default location (but what if the drive letter changes, I have brought that up bellow)
2. I would copy everything under settings, "file management" - "music folders" to that location you want, but again as set previously what if the drive letter of the external drive changes.
Honestly, it require some big testing...
Here's how i'm planning on testing it:
1. Backup all music to another folder
2. Wipe both traktors with nothing and use same locations on both PCs for folder settings in traktor
3. Use 1 small USB flash drive with just a few songs
4. Map the USB drive in windows to always be the same drive when you plug it in (on both computers)
5. Make changes in the library on one PC, swap external drive to other computer. AND THEN THE BIG QUESTION, What happens???!?!
Main inquiries:
- Can this be done without hard mapping a drive in step 4? What happens if the drive is recognized as a different letter?
- Location of stripe settings, etc... have to be saved on the mobile drive, what happens to the stripes if the drive letter also changes?
- If PC 1 saves to drive with track updates and drive is inserted in PC 2, will PC2 overwrite tags or will PC2 be updated.
Two brains are better than one for this..
