XDJ-1000MK2 without rekordbox

Can you explain which functions are not available without Rekordbox? I though I could just use mp3s on a USB; similar to how you used to use CD's. However, I am seeing limitations:

1. The track is not analyzed quickly. Past CDJs would analyze a new track within a few seconds. The if I load an mp3 from my usb, it does not analyze it. The waveform only displays if I play it through.

2. I am not able to save cuepoints or hot cues.

Are these correct? Anything else?

I don't always have tracks prepared on Rekordbox. If someone gives me a usb with music on it, its limited. Do I need to go back to CDs?

There are massive benefits to using rekordbox to prepare your content, I'd suggest you consider it.

Hi, apparently according to the Pioneer support (I emailed them) I can't install Rekordbox (even an older version) on my two computers running on Windows 7 (StarterN SP1 32 bits) and Windows XP (Pro SP3 32 bits).

I only want be able to plug my usb key into my XDJ RR and play my tracks quickly, even without waveform, but it seems it's impossible, my XDJ analyse each selected track for 3 or 4 minutes per track !!

What can I do please ?

@Lo Lo > The problem is that we no longer have a 32bit version of rekordbox available. If you're using an OS that old, I'm sorry but it really is time to update the OS or the computer.

(And Windows XP?? It was great for the time, but even as a Mac user, I'll tell you that Windows 10 is pretty fantastic.)

Thank you for the answer, but I don't wan't to use windows 8 or 10. Hence my question actually.

I guess there must be several old Rekordbox versions that were running on Windows 7 32 bits !?

Nope, sorry - 32bit versions are no longer available.

Actually we still can download them, here https://rekordbox.com/en/support/faq/about-rekordbox-5/#faq-q500003 or here http://rekordbox.freedownloadscenter.com/windows/old-versions/

I already tried to install the 5.5, the 4.3 and the 3.3, but I always get an error : "the procedure entry point unhandledexceptionfilter could not be located in the dynamic link library api-ms-win-core-errorhandling-l1-1-1.dll"

I Only can run the v2.2 on my laptop. But I don't know if the track analyzes will be compatible with my XDJ RR...

Ah, they must have added them back to the rekordbox site - for a while they only had 64bit versions listed.

I'm still going to encourage you to upgrade, as it's 99% likely that your OS is the reason those errors are occurring.

I just can't afford to upgrade all my system (to install windows 10 x64) after the purchase of the XDJ RR :(
