Export playlists
Export a playlist as a CSV, a plain-text tracklist, or Rekordbox XML, or copy the whole tracklist to your clipboard with one click.
When a playlist is ready to leave Ora, you have a few ways out, depending on where it's going: a spreadsheet, a readable tracklist, or a Rekordbox file. There is also a one-click copy for the times you just want to paste your set somewhere.
Export a playlist
Right-click a playlist and choose Export, pick a format, then choose where to save it.
Ora remembers the last folder you exported to and offers it again next time. It cleans up the filename for you, swapping out any characters a filesystem won't accept and adding the right extension if you leave it off, and it creates the destination folder if it isn't there yet.
Formats
A .csv spreadsheet with three columns: position, title, and artist. Fields are
quoted properly, so titles with commas or quotation marks survive the trip into
a spreadsheet app.
Note that CSV carries only position, title, and artist. BPM, key, and the other analysis fields are not included.
A .txt file built for reading: a header with the playlist name and track count,
then a numbered list of every track by title and artist. Good for show notes, a
forum post, or an email to the promoter.
A .xml file scoped to that one playlist, containing just its tracks and the
playlist itself, ready to import into Rekordbox. For moving your whole collection
across, see
Rekordbox import and export.
Copy a tracklist
Sometimes you don't need a file at all. Choose Copy tracklist and Ora puts the plain-text version (the same playlist name and numbered list) straight onto your clipboard, ready to paste. No format picker, no save dialog, one click.
Track order
Tracks export in the order they sit in the playlist, which is exactly the order you see in Ora's playlist view. What you arranged is what comes out.
If a track was deleted from your library but still sits in a playlist, the CSV and text exports mark it as a deleted track so the position isn't silently lost. It's left out of the Rekordbox XML export.
Rekordbox import and export
Import your Rekordbox library straight from its database, and export your Ora DJ library back out as Rekordbox XML.
Controller Support
Connect a DJ controller to Ora DJ to rehearse your planned sets on real hardware — supported Pioneer DJ and AlphaTheta units, setup, and mappings.
