Introduce a Song Playlist Favorites Bank

It would be good enough if you could open (browse) playlists in a new tab (view). This would mean that we have the ability to quickly switch between open tabs/playlists. In addition to the tabbed song browser, a new mouse right-click (or Ctrl/Cmd-click) option is needed on the playlist → Open in new Tab.
The proposal is to place a tab bar in the free space above the playlist column header according to the attached sketch.

Thanks for the additional input @ssokre

Sounds good to me, but Algo has to keep mobile and tablet navigation in the back of their mind too.

Anyways, pinned favorites have my vote too. Great idea.

Thanks for the vote @Mister_Tuur

A great idea for better and faster navigation through playlists, but it seems to me that it will be very difficult to implement on tablets and phones due to the lack of space. It would be great if they got it on macOS and Windows.

Hi @djaykay, welcome to the Community! Thanks for the feedback.

Now that there is a dedicated set of buttons on the new Rane System One, I feel like this is something that might see a little more traction. I think it’s a nice idea.

Upvote from me.

YOUR SUGGESTION:

  1. Playlist “Bookmarks”: 4 or 5 buttons (along top of a window), within another tab in the "Match, Queue” collapsible browser panel on the right. These are just shortcuts to playlists. Make them key command mappable to select/(store if empty) and drop in. Make them Color select-able. Allow them to have text.
  2. Also In the "Match, Queue” collapsible browser panel on the right: Make these lists to allow sorting, just like the main playlists.
  3. Keep doing a great job because I love your software.

Cheers - Raphael

p.s. I hope this makes sense and is not dumb:)

Hey team, it’s great to get to learn and understand your software. Let alone, it seems your team keeps an eye on feature requests and suggestions from the greater community.

I had a suggestion for a Heads-Up Display for Favorite Playlists:

  1. Is there a feature on the way for something like in Traktor? Is there a plan to bring your favorite playlist to the top of your Library? When using Traktor with live dj sets, I have grown accustomed to having my first choices at the top of the library if I want to go to separate playlists/crates.
  • ex: I might have 4-5 playlist/crates created for a set based on the feeling where I separate them. Having the ability to access them on the fly, rather than scrolling through my playlists, can be extremely helpful when shifting gears in a DJ Set.

Hi @Greilark, thanks for the suggestion. However, please use search before creating new topics. I have merged your new topic with this existing one. You can upvote this topic at the top left of this page. Thanks!
