Syncing Lexicon to Djay Pro

Djay Pro is fully supported in Lexicon.

Close Djay Pro before you sync. Lexicon checks this and won't sync while Djay is running. After the sync, open Djay Pro again to see your tracks and playlists.

Grey or unplayable tracks

If your synced tracks show as grey and can't be played in Djay, Djay doesn't have access to the folder your music is in. Add that folder in Djay:

1. In the Djay sidebar, make sure My Files is enabled.
2. Click the plus icon, browse to the drive or folder with your music and add the entire drive or folder.
3. Restart Djay Pro and the grey tracks will be playable.

iOS / iCloud support

This section is only needed if you want your tracks to sync automatically between your Mac and your iPhone or iPad with iCloud. For a normal sync to Djay on your computer, you can skip it.

If you want your tracks to sync automatically between your Mac and your iOS, you need to go through an extra step. See also this guide.

For iOS support, it is important that you add tracks to Djay Pro on your Mac first and then import these tracks into Lexicon. After this, syncing your tracks to Djay will work with iCloud and iOS. Dragging tracks into Djay and then also dragging them into Lexicon works too. It's just important that the tracks in Djay first appear through an official method such as dragging in.

If you add tracks to Lexicon and sync them to Djay without having already added them manually, they will still work in Djay but may not automatically sync to iOS.

The tracks should appear on your iOS device in the Djay app when adding files and changes like new cues on iOS should appear immediately on your Mac.

Limitations

Djay only supports two loops and one active loop. Any active loop you have will always be put in your first loop slot in Djay. Make sure to enable the active loop setting in Djay to enable it. In the preferences go to Song Loading and check Activate Saved Loop 1. Any loops beyond the first two will be dropped on sync.

Smartlists with a rule that Djay doesn't support are synced as normal playlists with the matching tracks. On Windows, all smartlists are synced as normal playlists. You can also choose All smartlists to playlists in the sync options to do this on Mac too.

The smartlist field Release Date is not supported. Djay can use multiple OR operators in a smartlist, this is not supported when importing into Lexicon. Only one OR is supported.
