Has anyone tried Rekordbox 6/ any Pioneer DJ controllers on an M1 Mac? Question I’m looking to upgrade my laptop - mid 2013 MacBook Air, 4th gen intel i5 and 8gb RAM - to a new M1 air or pro as my current device is really starting to show its age and the battery is shot. You can use rekordbox (Hardware Unlock) when the following mixer and PC/Mac are connected via USB cable and the mixer and the CDJ-3000 are connected via LAN.

Mac users waiting to upgrade their operating systems to Big Sur, and those who have or are thinking of buying the new M1 Macs, have some good news today: Both Pioneer DJ and Traktor have announced that their DJ software and hardware is fully compatible with the latest Mac OS.

Pioneer DJ/Rekordbox users

Rekordbox Dj Mac M1

For Pioneer DJ and Rekordbox users, all hardware and software works with both Big Sur and the M1 Macs following the announcement.

The only thing to bear in mind is that if you use a driver with your hardware, you’ll need to update that driver to the Big Sur version – but apart from that, you’re good to go.

Traktor users

Meanwhile, Traktor has announced Traktor Pro 3.4.1, which broadly brings the same thing for Traktor users.

Traktor software and hardware is now compatible with both Big Sur and the Apple M1 Macs, but note that if you’re a Traktor Kontrol S4 Mk3 owner, you’ll need to be running Big Sur 11.2 or higher – all other Traktor hardware works fine with any version of Big Sur.

Other DJ software

Virtual DJ and Algoriddim’s djay Pro AI users have had compatibility since last year for both Big Sur and the M1 Macs – but Serato DJ users should still hold off pending an official announcement from Serato, before making a hardware or software switch.

rekordbox is the best way of preparing and managing your tracks, be it at home, in the studio, or even on the plane! It allows you to import music from other music-management software using the Bridge function, or by simply adding them into the software for management. rekordbox will work out the BPM and allow you to set hot-cue and loop points into the track, utilizing a full beat grid view in advance, as well as color-coding your music and adding all the ID3 information so it appears automatically later on any rekordbox-enabled Pioneer DJ player.

Working with rekordbox also means that when tracks are exported to a USB key or SD card (CDJ-2000NXS and CDJ-2000 only), the waveforms are loaded instantly. Record your cue, loop, and set history during your set and recall them in rekordbox later. If you enable the Quantize feature within the CDJ-2000NXS/CDJ-2000/CDJ-900NXS/CDJ-900, then rekordbox makes loop and cue points snap to the beat (1ms accurate), ensuring beat-perfect loops and cues. The database layout within the software can also be customized to suit individual DJ style which enables personalized layouts when browsing on your Pioneer player.
