Lexicon version: …
Operating system (remove one): Windows / Mac
Bug description:
Export Disco/funk/multi-tempo tracks to Engine DJ and realised they don’t contain the grids.
Original tracks flexible gridded in Serato DJ
Do I need to lock grids in the Engine DJ export step. I don’t have them locked because engine does not have mass unlock.
Step by step to reproduce:
-
Tracks with Flexible grids added to lexicon from serato
Synced the tracks to Engine DJ
- Grids not available in Engine as flexible grids
Screenshot:
You do need to lock the beatgrids or Engine will overwrite them. If you sync with locked grids, are you flex grids there?

Thanks.
I can try that.
I’m thinking of a work flow
-
export lexicon library without lock
-
create a smartcrate in lexicon for flexigrid
-
export smartcrate only to engine dj
Will that work, as I don’t want to lock all my tracks in engine dj.
Yeah you can just export a smartlist to Engine without the lock. So just step 2 and 3. Don’t think you need step 1.

Reposting here - posted in the wrong section before
Just to follow up
- This worked fine.
- Got the usual shift which is a pain especially since they are tracks manually gridded.
- Kinda notice it’s more apparent in m4a files.
- I’m sure if there was a perfect solution you would have done it!
- I’m considering converting all the m4a to mp3.
- I have almost half of my library as m4as - 30k odd files.
So question
How is the shift in mp3 compared to m4a?

@Christiaan sent a folder of 10 m4a tracks your way.
Did notice the shift are on my m4as that are compressed ie AAC compared to ALAC.
Not seeing a shift for those files.
I added them to LXC, then sync to Engine desktop.
How did you add them to LXC? Dragged them in or imported from a DJ app?
Okay, appears to happen when importing from Serato. I’ll make a small change in beatshift there in the next beta
