If while redoing my crates, I made a text document of its layouts, and the content in each crate and posted it here on the forums for your reference: My crates will cover from big band, to jazz, and reggae to house music to remixes etc... 30 +1s and I will start my library over and start a text document.

It's always nice to see how other people arrange their crates. If you're willing to share that information with us, I think the community would be glad that you did so.

yeah... I can't believe the program will even start... hope you dump your history daily. I totally appreciate the level of organization. would love to have that on my back up drives. more for swapping sessions than anything... crates in serato? can't do it

i have easily that many crates + about the same for itunes playlists - takes a bit to load, but once it's loaded it's fine...

12:43 AM - 13 March, 2012
you made my head hurt just thinking about that sorting process, i broke mine down into basic groups but i don't have the time anymore to listen to that many songs to categorize it like that. is there a program that can correctly tag genres for you?
djchrischip
12:29 PM - 15 March, 2012
believe it or not SO FAR*** serato starts right up... im hovering about 320 gb on my hd so far and each crate has a 1 song place holder (except didn't do the acapellas/ instrumentals section yet)
djchrischip
4:34 PM - 16 March, 2012
to be honest dac I don't know,
I am doing it manually track by track...
Wish Serato would include a plug in with many advanced library management features in it, such as dupin, tidy up, mixed in key, platinum notes etc
would be dope
