How To Organize Your Music Library In DJ Software /// How a DJs organizes their music library is very much a method that will differ for every DJ. But there are some basics of organizing your DJ music, the first of which is to be sure to have some system in place.
In this video, I’ll show you how to automatically tag and organize a music library, and the best way to organize a music library for DJing. And you’ll find one of my biggest tips which is related to organizing when you have subscriptions to multiple record pools as well as multiple music sources.
These DJ tips will be especially useful to Virtual DJ users, as I’ll show Virtual DJ filter folders and virtual folders that help stay organized. However, the methods I use can be applied to any DJ software user, including Serato DJ, Traktor and Rekordbox.

What do you think about one way I organize music within Virtual DJ? What tips do you have? Let me know in the comments below!

What I have issues with are cues. I may have cues on the different flies within so many folders. With the music in all the different folders, when i need my files with cues or other info, I use the user defined fields then create filter folders for them too. Tons of options with Virtual DJ..not sure why all DJs don't use it. Love the stem feature for on the spot acappellas.

Hi there, i have a question, I have got a denon mc 3000 dj controller, launched in 2012, its pretty old one but it's still works fine. I wanted to ask that should I sell it and get a new one or should I keep using it. I dont have money to buy new one though . Your opinion will be appreciated bro. Thank you.

Love VDJ, it’s amazing program

@djkanoya 3 года назад

I agree ... how long have you been using it, and what hardware do you use with it?

@@djkanoya DJ Justin! Love your videos!! Keep it up!! I am just now realizing the awesomeness that is Virtual DJ after using Serato and mainly DJay Pro, what would you suggest would be a good starting point since there Virtual DJ 2021 came out to get acclimated to it? Thanks and love all the case builds and lessons! - Dre

@@andrepeterson7194 What up Dre ... Keep the heads ringing! Thanks for checking out the channel! Could you clarify what you mean by starting point?

@andrepeterson7194 3 года назад

@@djkanoya Sorry for not being clear, I have been trying to get acclimated again with VDJ and didn’t know if there were tutorials you recommended. That’s it! Thanks!

@djkanoya 3 года назад

Ahh, got it. A few options ... In the VDJ settings, there is an entire tutorial section, essentially links to all of their RU-vid videos. That is super helpful. I also have an entire VDJ playlist on my channel you can binge. Lastly, be sure to pick up my 10 Tips and Tweaks: mailchi.mp/542354cbcc27/10-vdj-tips-and-tweaks ... And you can always schedule a one-on-one with me too! Info on that is in the Tips and Tweaks guide. Which controller or mixer do you use?

Whats the software you use for Tagging your songs properly? I like that idea, doing it by pool

@djkanoya 2 года назад

I use Tag and Rename.

@robertpasec4247 3 года назад

Nice and usefulTip indeed . Did you know that you even dont need a additional tagging software ? you actually can tag certain fields using multiple values inside the tag editor for a random number of checked files at once

@djkanoya 3 года назад

Thanks .... and yes, I made a video showing how to use the 'fill with Discogs' option and I've since learned that you can also use it in batches and not just individually. It's not perfect, but does work fairly well.

@djmattdodge Год назад

I always put everything in one folder personally. If you are gonna tag the Mp3 with the year..genre..remixer..pool etc. anyway…you’re doing twice the work putting each file in a specific folder..You can use smart crates if the files are tagged properly.

@djkanoya Год назад

I'm seperating by music pool, not by any of the other meta data. It's just way to keep incoming music organized. I do all the smart filters and sorting within the software as you described.

@djjimmygoods 3 года назад

Which MP3 tag software are you using?

@djkanoya 3 года назад

I use Tag and Rename

@stepssounds-dancevideo5412 3 года назад

Cool, thanks - picked up a few tips... Another thing I do, on my hard drive, I create a folder for the year... this way I know I only need to replicate / backup the 2021 folder.. the other years / folders already have multiple backups created. Once I make the year folder, change the pool download options to reference the new year folder going forward (New Year's Day!!).

@djkanoya 3 года назад

Not sure if you checked out my previous video I referenced in this video, but I talk about sorting things by year as well. Makes it easier to have that first level of organization on the hard drive. Thanks for watching!
