Always move the newest set of mp3 files to the next numbered folder in the sequence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>NEVER use your existing DJ music folder(s) to create subfolders for ACT and the plays music files.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>After you have all the lastest files in one of the numbered folders, open Mixxx and remove the prior folder D:\\Act\\DanceOrama from the linked folders in Mixxx.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the Missing Tracks list and delete Metadata from Mixxx.  This cleans those older files from the Database that Mixxx uses.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the newer folder D:\/Act\/DanceOrama2 to the library in Mixxx.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scan the new folder, in my example D:\\Act\\DanceOrama2<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li id=\"Howto\">Analyze the new tracks.  This should put the latest Meta of songs or tracks that have virtually the same names out of the database in step 3 and 4.  And then add the NEW files in steps 5. and 6. into the Database anew.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":173,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-179","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/179","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=179"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/179\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":180,"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/179\/revisions\/180"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/173"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wrongsquared.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=179"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
