About rekordbox 6

  • I bought a piece of Pioneer DJ equipment that included a rekordbox dj license key. Can I use this DJ equipment to control PERFORMANCE mode in rekordbox ver. 6?

    If the equipment isn't a rekordbox ver. 6 Hardware Unlock device, you'll need a subscription plan to control ver. 6 PERFORMANCE mode.

    See a list of ver. 6 Hardware Unlock devices here.

    Using DJ equipment that was bundled with a rekordbox dj license key, you can control ver. 5 PERFORMANCE mode.

  • I’ve installed rekordbox ver. 6. Can I use rekordbox ver. 5 on the same computer? /Can I use rekordbox ver. 5 and ver. 6 on the same computer?

    You can use rekordbox ver. 5 on the same computer even after installing ver. 6.

    However, you can't run ver. 5 and ver. 6 at the same time.

    The following restrictions also apply.

    • To use selected functions in ver. 5, you'll need the relevant license.

    Please note: If you already have a ver. 5 license (purchased or bundled), you can continue to use ver. 5. As of April 2020, it will no longer be possible to purchase a new ver. 5 license key.

    • To use selected functions in ver. 6, you'll need to take out the relevant subscription plan. When you run rekordbox ver. 6 for the first time and convert your library from the old version, all information such as cues, beatgrid, and playlists will be copied over. After this, the libraries of ver. 5 and ver. 6 do not sync. So, from then on, imported tracks and information such as cue points in one version won't be reflected in the other version.

  • After I updated rekordbox to ver. 6, [?] is displayed on a track list.

    In rekordbox ver. 6, you can choose the new style of waveform [3Band]. However, tracks analyzed by the older version of rekordbox don't have the 3Band data, so the [?] icon appears.

    Tracks with the [?] icon can't show the 3Band waveform even if you select [3Band] in [Preferences] > [Display] > [Waveform] > [Colors].

    If you export one of these tracks, you won't be able to view the 3Band waveform in [WAVEFORM COLOR] on the CDJ-3000, even if you select [3Band].

    To fix the problem, right-click the track and select [Add New Analysis Data] from the context menu.
