![]() Pioneer DJ is aware of the development of 6toX. So on your next question, “did I do this behind Pioneer DJ’s back” I quote from the press release, which was also cleared with Pioneer DJ. How do you think it’s possible that the Primes are able to read a highly encrypted and IP protected (Device SQL) database structure of CDJ USBs? I can turn to them with specific questions, but none of them is going to explain to me, or anyone else for that matter, how and where they store the user generated metadata of their software. Over the 4 years that I’m doing this stuff I’ve established good connections with all companies within the industry. There has never been any reverse engineering/decompiling of any source code involved in the process. ![]() We communicate well with each other, but I haven’t heard back from him yet.Īll (DJ) conversion software regardless of its author is always developed using reverse engineering of the database/tags which contain the user data. It’s up to him if he wants to do that or not. I’ve seen your question on the other forum and had already contacted the moderator/owner of that place, and kindly requested a revision of his comment. The XML produced by 6toX is only guaranteed to work with Rekordbox and the ATGR tools.ĭuring my testing 6toX produced an XML file out of a RB6 collection with a very complex nested folder/playlist structure that crashed Engine Prime on import, but worked fine on the ATGR tools and Rekordbox.This translates to: if you run 6toX in a virtual environment, the tracks need to load in RB6 6 MacOS.ĦtoX marks the tracks it can not locate as “not found” in the log, these tracks will not be part of the produced XML. 6toX requires access to the actual audio files on the filepath as defined in the Rekordbox 6 collection.If I’m not mistaken you are technically aware, here are some other points that might be worth knowing about 6toX: But I rather protect my good name when it comes to going the extra mile to support the users of my tools. I understand that having my tools on Windows would multiply the revenue stream. I simply lack the knowledge about Windows to support it as well as I can support MacOS. The cause for most support questions I receive is not app, but operating system related. Not because I’m an OS snob, the reason is much simpler than that. ![]() One of the most frequently asked questions is: when will there be a Windows version of any of my tools? I’m pretty sure you have read this before, but for all of those who are wondering. Hello, MixMasterG, the developer 6toX here. This alone tells me that this is a totally pointless method on Pioneer DJ’s part and that they need to change, or ideally ditch encryption completely.īut if you’ve just jumped to rekordbox 6 and regret your decision, or just want to jump around software as you see fit, then 6toX combined with ATGR’s other tools apparently has the key.ĦtoX ATGR library management Rekord Buddy rekordbox rekordcloud But it always feels like an endless game of cat and mouse, where each industry giant protects their turf by using their own unique but still seemingly accessible library formats.Īnd in this release, AGTR is quite clear that it takes a bit of work to get it running, and will only last as long as Pioneer DJ doesn’t change the encryption key, which could be tomorrow or could be never. In this mythical DJ utopia, all gear works in perfect harmony together, and all runs from one big beautifully honed open library.Īnd then the mists clear, the real world appears, and the realisation that this nirvana of an industry is never going to happen, as each manufacturer continues to build higher walls around their ecosystems to keep you trapped inside.īut walls are designed to be climbed, and that’s what Rekord Buddy, ATGR’s DJCU, and Rekordcloud and their ilk are designed to. There is an idealistic place where all of us want to live. Rekordbox 6 and conversion to and from Denon Prime gear – YouTube I WISH THIS DIDN’T NEED TO EXIST
