Rekordbox 6 and playing gigs out - USB/hardware unlocked devices

If I move to Rekordbox 6, and do not pay for a subscription, will I be able to play the songs exported to my USB on non-unlocked devices at a venue, with all of the functionality I am used to on my CDJ3000’s at home? I will not play from a laptop. Secondarily, if I have CDJ3000’s but the NSX900 mixer, will my USB of songs from Rekordbox work the way I am used to them working today, no laptop. Thank you

Exporting songs to your USB does not require a license. If you're not using a laptop, you won't need hardware unlock to play so any compatible player will work the same as it did for Rekordbox 5.

Some songs won't be playable on older hardware because they don't support the additional file types that the 3000 supports (eg FLAC, ALAC) but a NXS2 player will still play these. If your collection is just MP3, WAV, AIFF, etc then that's not an issue.

Additionally, older players (eg older than the NXS2) only have three hot cues so - although you will still be able to play the tracks, you just won't be able to access the other hot cues.
