Import your Rekordbox library

An import tells SetPlan which tracks you have and where each file sits on your computer. SetPlan then:

• matches your tracks to the artist's library and fills in a BPM or key where a library track has none;

• shows who in the artist has each track, in the Have it column of a set and on track pages;

• knows the file locations it needs to put a set into Rekordbox;

• shows your own cues and beat grid on track pages.

Your music files stay on your computer. Only track details are uploaded, and your import is yours: teammates see that you have a track, not your file paths.

1. On the computer you DJ from, open Rekordbox.

2. Choose File → Export Collection in xml format.

3. Save the XML file somewhere you can find it.

Export again whenever you move files or add music in Rekordbox.

1. Open Library and choose Import from Rekordbox.

2. Choose Choose collection XML, or drop the file on it. SetPlan reads the file on your computer first.

3. Choose what to import:

   • Playlists: check the playlists or folders you want. Find a playlist filters the list, and Select all checks every playlist it shows. Tracks imported earlier stay available.

   • Whole library: every track in the XML. This replaces your previous import from this computer.

4. Check the name in This computer, such as MacBook. Use the same name every time you import from that computer.

5. Choose Import, which shows the number of tracks, and keep the window open until it finishes.

The summary shows how many tracks matched and how many BPMs and keys were filled in.

Empty playlists, and playlists that list tracks missing from the XML, can't be selected. Admins and members can import. People with the Production role can't.

Rekordbox stores where each song file sits, and a laptop and a studio computer keep the same songs in different places. With a name per computer, a new import from one computer never erases the other's, and a stopped import can continue where it left off.

1. Choose Playlists and check the playlists you want.

2. Check Create a set for each selected playlist.

3. Choose Import.

Each set keeps the playlist's order, including tracks that appear twice. New tracks are added to the library. A set holds up to 2,000 tracks. Importing again creates new sets; it does not update sets with the same name.

SetPlan matches a Rekordbox track to a library track by its ISRC when it has one. Otherwise it needs the same title and mix, at least one shared artist, and lengths within 3 seconds. A track without a length on either side doesn't match this way.

After the import, the summary lists tracks that aren't in the library yet:

• Choose Add next to a track to add it to the library.

• Choose Add all to add every one of them.

Only tracks in the library can go into a set.

Play history adds Last played to tracks in sets and on track pages.

1. Open Library and choose Import play history under the page title. The link appears once you have imported your Rekordbox library.

2. If the file has no dates, first pick one in Date for histories without one.

3. Drop a Rekordbox collection XML, which brings its History folder, or a history playlist exported from Rekordbox as M3U8 or TXT.

The summary shows the number of gigs and how many plays matched library tracks. SetPlan keeps only which tracks were played and when. Admins and members can import play history.
