I just received my 2 new XDJ1000mk2 players and they don't seem to come with a rekordbox license, is that right? I just sold my £200 controller that came with one and replaced them with £2000's worth of players that don't. Seems a little bit scroogey if it is correct!

Correct, most XDJs and CDJs don't come with a rekordbox dj license, as you don't need one for standalone use.
See https://rekordbox.com/en/support/link.php for the list of products that come with a license.
My XDJ-RX2 was standalone and came with a license. I think once you get to a certain price point all customers should be rewarded with a license
Yes, the RX and RX2 are the only standalone units that come with a license, hence why I said most don't.
I think most people who buy expensive Pioneer players don't intend to use them as simple controllers, so it doesn't make sense for Pioneer to include licenses.
Sorry but the XDJ-1000MK2 does not come bundled with a rekordbox license.
I have the same issue - I have purchased the XDJ 700s with no licence key, am I able to use rekordbox without a key to sort and load my USB for standalone use?
Hi, I have been searching the forum for a thread regarding this as my partner purchased me a pair of XDJ-100Mk2's for Christmas. I was using a pair of CDJ-1000's combined with a Rane SL2 box & Serato. I have been using Serato video as my library & output are turning more & more to video, as are many Dj's, but for you to say:-
'Sorry but the XDJ-1000MK2 does not come bundled with a rekordbox license' & 'I think most people who buy expensive Pioneer players don't intend to use them as simple controllers, so it doesn't make sense for Pioneer to include licenses.'
shows that you are out of touch with what the average club/bar Dj's are doing. The point I am making here is just to show my disgust at having to pay for the software I need & would like to use, after already paying over £2000.
I understand your frustration however that's what they've decided to do. Sorry!
Well all I can say is, it's a good job us Dj's don't have that attitude, otherwise we would be sacked!
All I can say is I don't make the decisions - we've argued the same thing back to Japan, but that's the choice they made.
