CDJ 3000 Some Previews Not Working

Hi I have 2 x CDJ 3000 and 1 x DJM 900NXS2 they are networked via ethernet and can all see each other ok and the Link Cue is alight.

 1.Some tracks I can preview via the CDJ others don't work, all tracks have been exported via Rekordbox 6 and reside on a FAT32 USB

2. I added a laptop with Recordbox 6 to the network via ethernet I don't seem to be able to preview any tracks via it.

The firmware is 2.07 on the mixer the latest I think.

I updated the CDJ's yesterday that all went ok, I think they are 1.21 I used this file CDJ3Kv121.UPD

Any help greatly received

Darren Rackley

Apologies problem 2 is in fact as problem one.

Darren Rackley

I think the answer may be bitrate, does anybody know what is supported ref via previewing a track on a CDJ 3000 please?

Should be anything supported by rekordbox, what's the bitrate of the songs you're having problems with?

As for link preview, you need to enable that in the rekordbox preferences.

Hi there, apologies for the delay in reply, thanks for the help. :)

The link preview is a button on my DJM 900NXS2 mixer, which works fine.

Well I've been messing around all weekend with Rekordbox 6, synching playlists etc;

The solution to it not previewing some tracks was in fact some tracks were at weird bit rates and therefore the CDJ's wouldn't preview them.

I converted those tracks to 256kbs and they all previewed ok.

reverts the firmware update to 1.20, I had the same problems. right now it's the best solution until Pioneerdj solves the problem with engineering

If you guys would like to test a beta firmware for the CDJ-3000, please create an inquiry ticket here and ask for it to be assigned to me.

Hi thanks for the offer on the beta firmware but I've only had the CDj's and mixer for a week and would like to have a better understanding of them first.
