Export to PioneerUSB

Export to PioneerUSB

Using the direct export to PioneerUSB function for the first time today from the beta version (but also using this for the first time in general). It appears as if pre-export, the entire library is analyzed again first. Why is this necessary? Shouldn't the process just take the songs as analyzed and export? I'm concerned analysis settings are overwritten here and e.g. beatgrids get shifted?

Thanks

Export Playlist with Song Properties

Hi

Working in Beta

It would be useful to be able to export a list of songs as text, including their Key, BPM and energy levels. The playlist -> right click -> share only exports name/artist/album, but no song properties.

Thanks

Generate Folder-Tree

Hi

I'm using the custom tags very actively (multiple genres, subgenres, moods, situations)

Is there a way to automatically populate a folder tree structure of smart playlists, which feature all the combinations? Or should I manually create the playlist folders as required? Thanks

E.g.

HOUSE -> TECH HOUSE -> WARM UP

HOUSE -> TECH HOUSE -> PEAK

HOUSE -> TECH HOUSE -> CALM DOWN

Workflow Lexicon vs Mixedinkey

Hi

Is there a recommended workflow to integrate Mixedinkey with Lexicon?
I understand the benefits of Mixedinkey might be slightly better Key recognition, maybe more accurate beatgrids. Does this materially improve the track analysis versus Lexicon, or is Lexicon designed to work well enough on a standalone basis?

Thanks

Beta Version

Hi

Just downloaded the beta version, however when running the installer it instantly takes me to and opens the regular version (with the red logo). Do I need to uninstall the regular version to install/run beta?

And could you please also point me to an overview of all new functions in beta?

Thanks

Reading from USB/Decks

Hi,

When playjng on a controller like RX3, AZ or even the 3000s and directly making changes to tracks (setting cues, adjusting the beatgrid) - whats the best way to sync this back to Lexicon? Could Lexicon read my USB directly or connect to the device?

Thanks

Harmonic Playlist Creation

Hi,

Does Lexicon have any tool, to suggest a harmonic playlist? E.g. you throw in 20 songs, and it suggests an order whereby key transitions match, energy builds up? I believe I saw a similar feature in MixedInKey (although I haven't worked with that software)

Thanks

OpenKeyScan

Hi,

Was using the lexicon standard key recognition until now and just switched over to the openkeyscan software yesterday. From your experience, how different would you expect the results to be? Is it worth rerunning openkeyscan on the entire library if this was significantly more accurate?

Thanks

Cue Point Generator - Custom Cue Reference

Hi,

I'd find it useful if in the custom cue point generator I could reference custom cue points for offsets.

Say I'd always have a "Vocal" cue, I'd like to be able to reference that to offset another automatic cue. Maybe we could allow the user to code own "frequently used cues", so you could map those into the dropdown list, rather than having to include any number of random cue points. Happy to elaborate in case I'm describing this poorly

Thanks

Fade Out Cues

Using the automatic cue point generator, but it sets the fade out cue points all very very late, basically at the very end of all songs. I would prefer them to be set much sooner, when the song genuinely goes from high energy to fade-out/low energy. Is this an error in my settings or a bug?

Cue Layout

Hi

I was thinking it could be useful to have a vertical cue point layout, instead of the horizontal layout below the track. This would help me when dragging and rearranging the order of cue points in the software (which i sometimes find a bit clunky currently).

Thanks

Tag Management

How can I prevent that new tags are automatically added to my tag library, when new tracks are analyzed? I want to maintain an own, fixed set of tags and want the library to adhere to that

Track-Finder Issue

Using the track-finder to search spotify playlist tracks in my lexicon library

came across this example of Kungs - Regarde-moi which lexicon couldn't find. it is in my library however, cleanly named and labeled so i'm surprised it couldn't pick this up. what are the criteria for finding/matching tracks?

thanks

Mobile App - Lexicon Mobile Playlists

There's a playlist folder Lexicon/mobile that I haven't created actively. I deleted this on the PC, but after mobile sync they reappear on PC. Where should I delete them to make sure that only my PC playlists are the only source, and mobile just mirrors that?

Further, should smartlists on mobile auto-refresh? Say I have the no-genre filtered smartlist for tracks with no genre assigned. If I then assign a genre tag on the phone, the track doesn't disappear from the smartlist. Does the smartlist refresh only work on PC?

Custom Tag Page Layout

Minor question, in your video tutorial the layout of the custom tag categories is horizontal (categories side by side), whereas mine in the software is horizontal (categories below each other). Is there a setting to toggle this? Thanks

Waveform Colours like Rekordbox

Hi,

Trying to align the waveform look of lexicon to rekordbox. See you can use custom colours for waveform in settings, but those only seem applicable to the 3band style, not the RGB. i'd like to copy the colour styles of rekordbox for the RGB waveform

example below for a track across both platforms, where lexicon is using more green/yellow shares vs rekordbox is using green/blue

thanks

Delete Beatport Tracks

I had some beatport streaming tracks in my rekordbox during a trial but it wasn't for me so trial is over and i deleted the tracks from my rekordbox aswell. i can't get them out of my lexicon for some reason. I even created a smartlist with streaming service=beatport to filter them all, but i can't remove them from the library.

i even fully reimported rekordbox into lexicon (without merging the two) hoping i wouldn't reimport them, but they're still there

what you i do? thanks
