Analysing Imported Files /65 - MIXVIBES CROSS DJ User Manual

Import of tracks that are already in the CROSS DJ Collection
If the imported collection contains a track that is already in your collection, croSS
DJ will open a message box as shown in the following figure:
•
click Yes if you wish CROSS DJ to read the tags from the file; these tags will
replace the tags already in the croSS DJ collection.
•
click No, if you do not wish croSS DJ to keep the tags that are already in the
croSS collection.
•
activate the check box Do not ask me again if you wish that all imported tracks
shall be handled in the same way as your current selection (yes/no).
7.4 Analysing imported Files
the tracks in your collection need to be analyzed before croSS DJ can show the
full track display and the transient view of the track in the Beat matcher. In order
to use the automatic beat and cycle synchronisation croSS DJ provides, the Bpm
and the beatgrid of the track also need to be analyzed. tracks that are not analyzed
when you load them into the players are automatically analyzed.
While the track is being analyzed, the text "ana-
lyzing" is shown in the full track display.
However, it is a good practise to trigger the analysis of newly imported tracks be-
fore you load them. the advantage of analysis before use is that the transient view
and the full track display are available immediately after loading. If you load a track
that has not yet been analyzed it can take a while until the full track display and
the waveform in the Head-up Display are visible. also, as track analysis consumes
cpu time it could lead to crackling sounds and this is something you do not want
to hear during your set.
perform the following steps to analyze tracks:
1 make sure that the Collection tab is opened in the Browser.
2 Select the track/s you wish to analyze.
3 right-click the selection and open the Analyze menu.
