MIXXX to Cross DJ

Here's how to move your entire DJ library from Mixxx to Cross DJ with all of your playlists, beat grids, album artwork, track metadata, and all of your tracks. First, we're going to import our library from Mixxx into MIXO. You can see here we've got our entire library in Mixxx with all our playlists, tracks, and metadata. To export our library from Mixxx, right click on each playlist and click Export Playlist. We want to choose a folder on our computer to save those files in and remember where this folder is as we'll need it in the next step. Then we head over to MIXO, go to the import page and choose Mixxx from the list of DJ software. At the top of the import page. You can choose to turn off Track Analysis if you like, although we recommend keeping it on. Track Analysis will go through all your tracks and get the album artwork saved in each track, and it'll also build a waveform for every track and analyse the beat grid. If you turn Track Analysis off then you won't have artwork, waveforms or beat grids in MIXO, but if you're just exporting your library directly to another DJ software then you might not need that data. If you do turn Analysis off then your import will be quite a lot faster. Next we click on select M3U to import. From here we can choose the folder where our Mixxx M3U playlists were saved and we can import one or multiple playlists. MIXO will save the tracks using info available from the Mixxx M3U files. It will then go through and analyse each track to import all the custom metadata saved by Mixxx in the track tags, plus get the artwork and build the waveforms. This import may take a bit of time depending on how many playlists we choose and how big our library is, so you might want to get a cup of tea or even leave your import overnight. Once the import is complete, we can head over to the library in MIXO and you'll see all our playlists, tracks and album artwork have been imported from Mixxx. We can now use MIXO as our main DJ library. MIXO let's us edit our playlists, import music from other DJ software, sync our entire DJ library to the cloud, listen to our music on all our devices, and export our library to other DJ software. Now we've imported our library into MIXO. Let's transfer everything over to Cross DJ. Before we do anything in MIXO, let's have a look at Cross DJ and you can see there's nothing showing in the library. So it's ready for us to import everything from MIXO. So we load up MIXO and from the menu at the top, we click on the export tab, which gives us a list of all the DJ software we can export to. Select Cross DJ from this list and from here we can choose to export the entire MIXO library or select individual playlists we'd like to export. Once we're ready and we've chosen the playlist, to move to Cross DJ, simply click Start Export. Once the export is finished, MIXO will confirm that the export is complete and from here we can head over to Cross DJ. In Cross DJ, to add playlists for each playlist we need to right click on Playlists and click Import Playlist. Find the exported files in the folder Music MIXO Exports Cross DJ and select the playlists we want to import from here. You'll need to do this for each playlist. From here you can see the playlists have been exported and are ready to use in Cross DJ. Now we can drag any track to the deck, play it, and off we go. Now we've moved our library, let's have a look at what else we can do with MIXO. The first thing you'll definitely want to do is connect your Dropbox, Google Drive, or OneDrive so that MIXO can sync your DJ library across all your devices. Once you're connected, MIXO will upload all your tracks and playlists to your own cloud storage, so they're backed up in your own secure and private cloud. You can then download MIXO on your phone, tablet or any laptop or desktop and MIXO will automatically sync all your playlists and tracks to all your devices, so you can edit, access and export your music from anywhere to any device. You can also use MIXO to export your tracks to USB, ready to play in your favourite hardware. With MIXO, you can export directly to the REKORDBOX, USB Device Library or Device Library Plus to Engine DJ format or as a Virtual DJ library. When exporting to USB, your MIXO library will look just like it was exported from your DJ software, including all your playlists, cue points, beat grids, album artwork, metadata, and more. Export to USB is also available on the mobile app so you can export your playlists directly from your phone once your library is in the cloud. You can also play your library with CarPlay or Android Auto in your car so you can enjoy all your purchase music on the go, just like you can with Spotify, Apple Music or your favourite streaming service. MIXO also has a Spotify Track Matcher tool that allows you to put together playlists in Spotify and then have MIXO locate the tracks from your own collection and save it as your own playlist in MIXO. MIXO also comes with lots of library management tools such as Track Analysis, Duplicate Finder, Que and Key converter, Find and Replace scanners, and all the general playlist and track management tools that you'd expect.
