It’s not like the Traktor Library offers anything radical over the Rekordbox, Serato, VDJ or any other library for that matter. Ultimately, they all provide the same end result, deployed in more or less the same way. I understand why different software companies use their own libraries, but it’s not good for the end user. 6 different software libraries - 6 different and hostile formats. Well right now it is anyway - most things are just a matter of time. You’ll still have to generate waveforms internally of course, as that kind of thing is beyond the scope of data translation. You can choose tracks, playlists or whole libraries, and also decide exactly what metadata to shift across as well, including beat grids. This doesn’t appear to be some half -arsed conversion either. But what Rekord Buddy promises is a smooth 2-way conversion between Traktor and Rekordbox. Trying not going to re-rant over old ground again, but my core issue is that unless you use the basic library tools afforded to you by Apple’s iTunes, you have to commit wholeheartedly to a particular piece of software with little in the way of translation, other than the handful of 3rd party library wranglers. My displeasure with the plethora of library formats is well known, but it seems that Next Audio Lab’s Rekord Buddy may well smash down at least one wall - the one between Traktor and Rekordbox - with some style, provided you’re on a Mac.
