DDJ-RB compatibility with rekordbox 6.8.6 on macOS Tahoe 26/Apple A18 Pro.
Hi,
I’m considering buying a MacBook Neo 2026 and I would like to confirm compatibility before purchasing it.
The setup would be:
-
Controller: Pioneer DJ DDJ-RB.
-
Software: rekordbox 6.8.6 for Mac.
-
Computer: MacBook Neo 2026.
-
Chip: Apple A18 Pro.
-
RAM: 8 GB.
-
Storage: 256 GB SSD.
-
Operating system: macOS Tahoe 26.
I would like to use the DDJ-RB with rekordbox 6.8.6, not rekordbox 7.
Could you please confirm whether this setup is officially supported and expected to work?
I’m especially concerned because the DDJ-RB is an older controller and macOS Tahoe 26 is a very recent operating system.
Thank you.

Sorry, but that is not supported for rekordbox.
As it does not meet minimum system requirements.
Hi Gabriel,
Thank you very much for your quick reply and for your help.
I really appreciate it, as I wanted to confirm compatibility before purchasing the computer.
Best regards,
Jorge.

Software: rekordbox 6.8.6.
Computer: Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 15IRH10.
Operating system: Windows 11 Home.
CPU: Intel Core i7-13620H.
