Hi there,
My file management is terrible and I have tracks in many different places in my system. I’m trying to move everything into one folder on an external and keep my playlists intact. I’ve uploaded all my files to the Lexicon cloud and I’m trying to figure out how to move them onto this other drive. Is there any advice on how to manage this kind of migration?
Hi! This video explains how moving/renaming files works.
Set up a Target Folder and no subfolder patterns, that will result in moving files all into one folder.
Optionally, you can also let it rename files.
The manual has more info.
I watched that yesterday several times but it seems to require tracks to be put in the “Incoming Tracks” section to move them. There are so many folders and places and drives I’m afraid I’ll miss some if I’m manually dragging them in there. They are all already working in the playlists. Is there a way to move them from the playlists? I could drag them into a folder from rekordbox and then drag all the tracks into “Incoming Tracks”
Right click your tracks → Edit → Recipes → Mark as incoming
Is there a way to relocate tracks to new folders according, for example, to existing playlists?
I mean this instead of the subfolder method for incoming tracks.
No, you can’t use playlists as folder names when moving tracks
