3. Rekordbox 6

The updates in the new Rekordbox 6: 

• Auto Re-Locate – Once you move a folder on your computer, Rekordbox 5 would have trouble accessing the file. With Rekordbox 6, an auto-locate feature has been added that will scan your entire computer for the correct file. (Preferences -> Advanced -> Database)
• New Waveform Display – Pioneer introduced a 3 band visual waveform. Blue represents sub-frequencies. White represents high frequencies. Orange represents mid frequencies. This matches most DJ mixers with 3 band EQs. 
• Light Mode – A white display background that works well for sunny areas, you can now alternate between dark and light mode. 
• Collaborations with streaming services – Rekordbox 6 now integrates with Inflye and other promotional and streaming services.

The cloud feature works in conjunction with your Dropbox folder. This makes working on the move and without your personal laptop or external hard drive an easy task.

Via Airserver, you can replicate Rekordbox on your phone. Allowing you to play tracks, add Hot Cues, mix, loop audio and update your Rekordbox playlists from anywhere in the world.
