EXPORT TRACK ID3 TAGS TO SERATO

Serato reads track data, such as cue points and metadata, directly from the ID3 TAGS of individual track files rather than from a central database or XML file. Exporting to ID3 tags ensures your metadata - including titles, artist names, beat grids, comments, and cue points - remains up to date within the files themselves.

HOW TO EXPORT ID3 TAGS

You can update your track files either during a Serato export or as a standalone process:

WHILE EXPORTING TO SERATO:

1. Navigate to EXPORT -> SERATO.
2. Click on ‘ADVANCED EXPORT OPTIONS’.
3. Ensure ‘UPDATE ID3 TAGS’ is TICKED.

WITHOUT EXPORTING TO SERATO:

1. Navigate to EXPORT -> ID3 TAGS.
2. Select ‘UPDATE TRACK ID3 TAGS’.

IMPORTANT DETAILS

• OVERWRITING DATA: once toggled, the track file is updated with metadata changes made in MIXO, overwriting any existing information in the file.
• SUPPORTED FILE TYPES: MIXO can export ID3 Tags to MP3, WAV, AIFF, OGG, AAC, and FLAC.
• AUTOMATIC BACKUPS: MIXO automatically backs up your DJ libraries every time you export. It is recommended to also maintain regular backups of your source library and computer.
