00:50 Watch the tutorial first from start to finish!
01:15 Have backups see also youtu.be/jkdj2onZavE
01:38 Understand the importance of filepaths see also youtu.be/m96k3rMCn3s
02:22 Give Rekordbox, my apps and all other DJ related apps full disk access!
03:16 Export to XML
03:36 unmount all volumes (=drives) that contain Rekordbox tracks, but you don't want to be included in the backup (to avoid overflow of the pre-bin folder)
04:12 using the iTunes/Rekordbox Collection Backup Tool (CBT)
05:52 If a Pre-Bin folder is used (recommended), CBT stops if the free space drops below 20Gb.
07:34 Mount those unmounted drives again after CBT is finished
07:44 move the Pre-Bin folder to the trash bin, but don't empty the trash!
08:08 Auto relocation in Rekordbox see also youtu.be/EVX9cyLIXzs
09:52 Check if the tracks load after relocation and the trash can be emptied
10:00 Moving the Rekordbox database to the external drive which gives access to the full Rekordbox collection on any macOS computer!
12:39 if those (internally stored) audio files were used in other software, then relocation is required in that other software too!
