CuePoint user guide

Install CuePoint, export your collection from Rekordbox, import it and match your first playlist on Beatport. A first session from start to finish.

Everything CuePoint does with your Rekordbox collection, page by page, and the things it promises never to do to your files.

Find your way around CuePoint: the sidebar, search, Track details, the status strip, keyboard shortcuts, themes and the privacy switch.

Import your Rekordbox export, browse and filter your tracks, refresh after changes and write tags to your files, with a preview before anything is saved.

See how many tracks you have in each key across your playlists, Collections and Sets, then open the tracks in any key or the keys that mix with it.

See your most played tracks, artists and labels, how your library spreads by genre, key, tempo and more, and how healthy it is, for any playlist.

Make your own Collections, Smart Collections, tags, ratings and notes beside your Rekordbox playlists, and see what Rekordbox will and will not see.

Match your tracks to Beatport, review each match with the keyboard, and find missing files and possible duplicates. Nothing is deleted or moved.

Find new music on Beatport from the artists and labels in your library, keep a wantlist and send tracks you want to a Beatport playlist.

Plan a set: put tracks in running order, split it into chapters, time each one, check every transition and take the set out as a list or a playlist.

Play any track in your library gaplessly, queue the view you are looking at, pick the audio output and find out why a file will not play.

See every track as a waveform with its loudness, your Rekordbox cue points and beat grid, and learn how CuePoint makes them in the background.

Send your Collections, ratings and changed values back to Rekordbox as a new XML file, and see what the export carries before you open it.

Step-by-step routines for the tasks DJs do most: a first clean-up, a big batch, a quality check, an export and preparing a set.

How CuePoint finds and installs new versions itself on Windows and Mac, when to restart, what Linux shows instead, and what a check sends.

Fixes for import errors, slow runs, matches that will not appear and failed exports, plus how to send a support bundle or report a problem.

Measured import and browse times for a 50,000-track library, what slows CuePoint down, and the settings that tune it for a big collection.

Plain definitions of the words CuePoint uses: Set, chapter, entry, planned time, waveform, hot cue, beat grid, LUFS, LU and more.

Which systems CuePoint supports, how fast problems are answered, what to send with a report and where the logs are kept.
