One-pass migration from djay Pro JSON library into encrypted master.db. Nested playlist folders preserved end-to-end, format gotchas handled on both sides, nothing leaves your machine.
Moving from djay Pro to Rekordbox normally means an XML round-trip: export from djay Pro, hope Rekordbox parses it correctly, manually rebuild nested playlist folders, discover cues didn't translate. djay Pro syncs library data through iCloud on Mac, which means the canonical library may live in a hidden iCloud Drive folder rather than the local app support folder. And on the destination side: Writes require atomic transactions, and Rekordbox must be closed or it will overwrite your edits when it next saves.
Supported today
Rekordbox · Serato DJ · VirtualDJ (incl. Favorite Folders) on Windows 10+ and macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel).
djay Pro and Rekordbox speak completely different languages: djay Pro JSON library (djay Pro integrates tightly with Apple Music and Spotify streams alongside local files — tracks that came from a stream have no portable file path) versus encrypted master.db (Rekordbox stores rich metadata (cues, beatgrids, hot cues, colored playlists) but XML export drops nested folder structure and is lossy on cue points). XML export-import is the usual bridge — and it's lossy on both ends. MLD treats both formats as first-class, reads djay Pro's structure natively, and writes Rekordbox's native format directly, so nested playlist folders survives and the target app doesn't re-import anything. A timestamped backup of each app's library is taken before any write.
Yes. MLD reads both libraries locally, so both apps (or at least their library files) must be accessible on the same computer. Nothing uploads anywhere — all scanning is local.
Yes. MLD supports Rekordbox's encrypted database key format, so you don't have to downgrade or export anything to read or write playlists.
Run Fix Missing Tracks for djay Pro first. MLD scans your drives, matches moved/renamed files, and repairs links in djay Pro before the transfer — so Rekordbox receives a clean library.
Yes. djay Pro and Rekordbox libraries are both copied to timestamped backups before any write. Rollback is always one folder away.
Yes — see the Rekordbox to djay Pro guide. MLD supports every direction between supported apps.
Yes. MLD tracks djay Pro version compatibility and updates with each new release. See the changelog for the version matrix.
Free tier covers detection and viewing. Lifetime access is $49 — $19 for the first 100 DJs.
