rb2tk

rb2tk is a simple script to convert a Rekordbox XML export to a Traktor NML library.

The most straightforward use case is downloading and running the rb2tk.py in the same folder as a rb2tk.ini file containing settings, e.g.:

[Library]
RekordboxXmlInput = /path/to/rekordbox.xml
TraktorNmlOutput = /path/to/traktor.nml
[Options]
FixCuePositions = yes

rb2tk.py uses only standard Python libraries.

Settings

Available rb2tk.ini options are:

• [Library]
  • RekordboxXmlInput: Local path to exported XML of Rekorbox collection.
  • TraktorNmlOutput: Target path of generated collection.
  • MergeOutput (yes/no): Experimental/buggy. If the file at TraktorNmlOutput already exists, the script will attempt merging the new conversion with the target collection.
• [Options]
  • FixCuePositions (yes/no): Will attempt to fix cue shifts/offsets that happen due to how Traktor handles MP3 and M4A/AAC files. See the Documentation section below for more information.
  • GridMarkerFromCue (yes/no): Will create a grid marker from the first Hot- or Memory Cue detected.
