Setting up rekordbox for first time,and a few Q's

[makar1]

Rekordbox cannot export to CD so there isn't even a way for the CDJ 1000 to read Rekordbox files.

TL;DR, absolutely no effect

It doesn't make copies.

The main advice I'd give is to import things a bit at a time. I found that 1 corrupt file can crash RB, making it seemingly forget everything you did since you last quit. I just imported one genre at a time.

i had this issue as well. I left it to run overnight, analysing all of my music whilst I caught some Z's and woke up to find that it had only done about 5% of what I asked it to and so had to do what FEP has said below :

Depends how many you want to add to the RB library. One by one is a bit conservative, I went for 100 or so at a time.

Does using Rekordbox have absolutely no effect if you then use cdj1000s, not even the analysis for the bpm?

There is no way to link your RB to the CDJ1000's.... this is what I have, but I still like the way that the programme organises my music, as well as the decent waveform display really helps when I am planning things out. I even have it open whilst I am running traktor as I find it really easy to navigate around.

Yeah I know you couldn't link it, just wasn't sure if analysing the tracks would speed up and make the bpm readings more accurate or whatever.

Cheers though.

In that case, I am not sure, as all my BPM's have come through MIK which I find to be pretty accurate....

Like I said above, there is no hardware or software implementation for Rekordbox with the CDJ 1000s.

The only way you can play music on CDJ 1000s is from CD, and Rekordbox cannot write data to CDs.

Missed your post. I thought maybe there was a chance Rekordbox could change the file and speed things up. Completely new to it.
