Reckordbox background storage

Hey,

I've always had Reckordbox bridged with iTunes and my music organised in iTunes. But a month ago I have updated iTunes and it completely ruined my library bij destroying the .xml file. Backups didn't work and so i've lost like all my music...

Now I would like to organise my music only with Reckordbox. But whats the easiest way to organise your music in the background. before I just used iTunes to arrange that. So how can I do that myself efficiently without creating a whole chaos with folders. Where I can easily add music to my library etc.

I am very curious what the recommended way is and how you guys do it. Cause i don't want to 24.000 tracks twice because it doesn't work out well.

Thank you in advance

You shouldn't have lost all your music - it was likely that you updated to iTunes 12.2.x and didn't update rekordbox as well. Apple made a change to the XML and how iTunes allows other programs to access it, so Pioneer had to adjust rekordbox to match. Don't forget that rekordbox keeps several backups of your database in the event something goes wrong or crashes, you can recover from them if you don't open / close the program more than 3 times (there are 3 copies, the oldest one is removed each time the application is launched).

If you are looking to use rekordbox without iTunes, you can do this by either directly importing the music, or if you are wanting to have playlists pre-established, simply export a playlist or XML file from that other application, and import them to rekordbox.
