Rekordbox and Phones w/Multiple drives

Sorry I didn't know where to post this, but I have both CDJ2000s and CDJ900s and have always played using rekordbox off of my cell phone. However I've recently purchased a Galaxy S2 which has a built in internal usb storage of 16gigs and an expandable MicroSD slot of 32gigs max. I have most of my favorite collection of music stored on the 32gig via rekordbox however when I connect my phone to either CDJ2000 or CDJ900 it doesn't see the 32gig microSD, only the built in 16gig storage. Is there anyway I can make it see both or just the 32gig microSD?

@DJ Herman > I'm not sure how you use Rekordbox on a cell phone. ;) lol I think you meant you export your analyzed tracks to your phone?

Sorry but I do not believe there is a way for you to be able to access both drives because the CDJ's only recognize the first partition or "drive" on a device. If you would like to use both sources, you will need to pick up an adapter to plug the MicroSD card into the SD card slot on the CDJ-2000. Then you will need to switch between the sources depending on which drive the track is located on.

I hope this is helpful. :)

Thanks Foster, that was going to be my next step...although I'd hate to have to bring an adpater with me(yeah i know I'm lazy) everywhere I go. I've lost multiple usb drives and I believe I'll lose an adapter as well. I guess I'll just have to find one that fits my key chain or learn how to disable the primary partition.

@DJ Herman > Just duck tape the adapter to the bottom of one of your players or the inside of your case after every gig. lol

Or better yet... just buy a couple designated SD cards and you can leave them in the CDJ-2000's the entire time. Since the are covered, you won't need to take them out when transporting like a USB drive. ;)

I remember when I used to have an old Samsung phone (Tocco, I think...?) I would keep a MicroSD adapter in my wallet. Alternatively, if you have an available SD slot on your computer, stick it in there.
