MIXXX TO ENGINE DJ V2

1. Export playlists from MIXXX

  • Open your MIXXX application.
  • In the library section, right-click on the playlist you wish to export.
  • Select ‘EXPORT PLAYLIST’.


  • Choose a memorable folder on your computer to save the M3U playlist file(s).

MIXXX exports playlists individually. Repeat these steps for every playlist you want to transfer.


2. Import MIXXX playlists into MIXO

  • In MIXO, navigate to the ‘IMPORT’ tab.
  • On the left sidebar, select MIXXX.
  • Click the 'SELECT M3U TO IMPORT' button.


  • Browse to the folder where you saved your M3U playlist file(s) (from the "Export Mixxx" part) and select the playlists you want to import.

MIXO will process the M3U files, import your tracks and playlists, and analyze the tracks (if analysis is enabled).


Note: Be aware, MIXO does not import beat grids & cue points from MIXXX.

Additional setting: You can optionally turn off 'Track Analysis' at the top of the Import page. Keeping it enabled is recommended, as it gets album artwork, builds waveforms, and analyzes beatgrids for all tracks during the import.


3. Export playlists to Engine DJ

  • In MIXO, navigate to the ‘EXPORT’ tab.
  • On the left sidebar, select Engine DJ.
  • MIXO should automatically locate the Engine DJ database. If it has been moved, use the ‘Change Location’ feature before exporting.
  • Select whether to export your entire library or choose individual playlists and press the 'START EXPORT' button.


Done! Open your Engine DJ application.


Additional settings:

  • Enable ‘Save MIXO Tags To Comments’ to overwrite the comments field on each track with tags added in MIXO.
  • Enable ‘BeatGrid Lock’ to prevent automatic analysis in Engine DJ from resetting the beatgrids exported from MIXO.
