rekordbox ver. 5.5.0 release notes

[NEW]

- Compatible unit added: DDJ-800.

- Feedback Reducer feature added (compatible units: DDJ-800 and DDJ-RR).

- Added a function to adjust brightness on the Lighting panel.

- Compatible combo fixtures added.

- Added plug-and-play function that activates rekordbox dj (PERFORMANCE mode) software when you connect selected controllers (DDJ-800, DDJ-400 and DDJ-1000) without requiring a license key. To use rekordbox dj on your computer without connecting the DDJ-800, DDJ-400 or DDJ-1000, you’ll still need to activate the rekordbox dj license (a license key card is included in the box).
