Years of downloads, rips, and external-drive rescues end in scatter. MLD's Consolidation Wizard combines duplicate handling and the actual move into one workflow.
A serious music collection ends up scattered: ~/Music has some, Downloads has more, an old iTunes Media folder was never merged after a Mac switch, an external SSD from 2018 sits in a drawer with another 30 GB. Manual cleanup means dragging files, deciding which duplicate to keep, hoping you don't move something you'll want later — and usually ending up with a different mess.
Supported today
Rekordbox · Serato DJ · VirtualDJ (incl. Favorite Folders) on Windows 10+ and macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel). No DJ software? Folder Library mode audits plain music folders too.
Consolidating a music library combines operations that normally happen separately: spotting duplicate copies and the actual file move. MLD does this in one coordinated workflow. Identical copies (same file size) are skipped rather than re-copied, and folder hierarchy is preserved under the target. Every move is logged with source and destination paths, so the whole operation is auditable and reversible as a batch.
Only if you explicitly tell it to, and only via the system Trash (never hard-delete). The default flow moves files into the target folder and leaves the source structure intact for verification.
Your existing folder hierarchy is preserved under the target — each source root's structure stays intact, so nothing gets flattened or scrambled. The Wizard shows the full plan before any move.
Point Plex/Navidrome/Roon at the consolidated target folder once the cleanup is done. The media server rescans and picks up the organized library.
Yes. Every move is logged, and you can roll back the entire batch with one click.
No. MLD reads the audio files in the iTunes Media folder but never modifies the iTunes/Apple Music app database. Your library in Apple Music stays untouched.
Free tier covers scanning and detection. Pro is a one-time lifetime license, or a monthly plan if you prefer. Current pricing is on the homepage.
It finds Rekordbox, Serato and VirtualDJ on its own, and reads plain music folders when you use none of them. Nothing to configure before the first scan.
macOS 10.15+ or Windows 10+. Notarized and code-signed. See pricing
