XDJ-XZ doesn't unlock DVS in rekordbox 6

Hey there,

a lot of articles tells me, that the XDJ-XZ unlocks DVS feature.

For sure, 2 - 3 days ago the DVS works well and in my preferences there are a lot of DVS options i can set.

Now if switching the DVS Mode in the Decks, there is Absolute and Relative Mode locked.

What is happened >> please help?!

 

Thanks and stay healthy 💪

@Alex > The same as in rekordbox 5, the XDJ-XZ supports DVS but it's not included or unlocked for free. In rekordbox 6, you will need to purchase a plan in order to use DVS functionality.

I think, that's not true...

Here is clearly pointed out, DVS will unlocked with using XDJ-XZ (Free Plan with supported Hardware >> DVS).

 

http://rekordbox.com/en/plan/#plantable

 

In my opinion unlock means UNLOCK the feature >> remove the LOCK icons.

It looks like, Pioneer mislead the crowd!

 

In RB5 using a license key to using DVS all time.

Thats not really serious after buying such a expensive Controller, paying monthly for the "native" things like DVS.

Sorry, that's not as clear as it should be:

 

Basically, if it was free in 5, it's free in 6. If it was paid in 5, it's paid in 6.

DVS was not free with the XDJ-XZ, so you'll need a subscription for it if you want to use it within rekrodbox 6.

Ah okay... the matrix on my linked page means "Hardware supports DVS without an interface" but to unlock i need a paid plan.

Sorry, my mistake 😇

Just one question...

In your linked matrix the DDJ-XP1 and ...XP2 are marked as DVS FREE with a *

What does the * means???

 

For instance i'd like to use additionally the XP1 / XP2 to control lighting...

With this combination - XDJ-XZ and DDJ-XP1 or XP2 - gets DVS for FREE???

 

Thanks a lot

No worries -- I've asked our marketing team to make it a bit clearer.

And yes -- the addition of an XP1 or XP2 would unlock DVS for free. :D

Okay cool 👍 that sounds really good.

The change to rekordbox is not a cheep think but i hope it worth it in my case.

Additionally i'd like to buy the XP1 or XP2 and the RB-DMX1...

Is there a way to get the video pack for free with additionally hardware too???

Thanks, for that info about the XP1/XP2. There is another thread where this question came up. I will try to find it and link this one to it.

Like my explaining i use(d) Serato DJ.

Now i ordered the DDJ-XP1 which is explicit for rekordbox.

Is there a possibility to use it additionally in Serato DJ via MIDI assignments (like other MIDI Pads / Controllers e.g. Korg Nanopad, Akai, ...)?

@Alex > The only way to get video for free is with the (ugh) DDJ-RZX.

Yes, you can MIDI map the XP1 in Serato DJ.

Obviously streaming sources are a hot topic where everyone wants their preferred vendor added, and with inclusion of Beatport, Soundcloud, and Inflyte, users see the potential for more sources. Unfortunately I don't have any information available on any potential or currently un-added sources. Sorry!

Thanks for your response.

My first choice was Soundcloud in Serato.

One year ago i switch to TIDAL and 2 hours ago switched back to SC ;o)

My library / collection is really huge but sometimes there is the situation to falling back to a online / streaming service implements in a professional DJ software.

Soundcloud is implemented in the most professional DJ solutions like rekordbox, Serato, djay...

 

Suggestion last:

A possibility to use the exported library (via rekordbox mobile sync) in WeDJ or Soundcloud in WeDJ would be really great.

 

Thanks and stay healthy 🙋‍♂️

oh oh... my lovely rekordbox team, the next question is goin on:

 

Now i check all features in (my new) rekordbox.

I think, there are a lot of useful things in it.

 

In rekordbox i can create playlist folders with a lot of playlist inside (Serato: crates and subcrates).

Is it possible to view all tracks in a playlist folder >> means in every playlist placed in this folder?

Thanks a lot

Hey ho...

Today comes my DDJ-XP1 additional to my XDJ-XZ but my mood is bad.

I thought that's possible to set buttons, pads and the knob to my own assignments but isn't. In the rekordbox MIDI setup there is really often a message says, the MIDI Code doesn't change.

WHAT?!

Switch the MIDI preference in Utility Mode but nothings happened 🤷‍♂️

 

How can i use e.g.

• the knob for Sampler Volume or

• the knob for Lighting MasterDimmer

• the stripes for Sampler Volume or Master Dimmer

• the 1, 2, 3 button upper left / right for abs, rel, int Mode

 

I can't feel free with it and my happiness is going down with the DDJ-XP1.

 

PLEASE HELP and note my posts before.

Thx

Alex
