Thanks for the additional info @Turf_Daz

  1. So you were running djay 5.6.5 and everything was fine?
  2. This started after updating to djay 5.6.6 that was released about a week ago?
  3. Are you running the 2.01 REV7 firmware from AlphaTheta (DDJ-REV7 Firmware for Mac - AlphaTheta Help Center)?
  4. Did you do anything else on your Mac other than update from djay 5.6.5 to 5.6.6 (ex. macOS update, TimeMachine recovery, new software installation, etc.)?
  5. What source(s) are you using for your tracks (ex. Local Music, My Files, USB Library, External Apps)?
  6. Are you also using Apple Music Streaming?
  7. What is your exact workflow for adding tracks to djay?
  8. Are your songs stored on your Mac internal drive or on an external?
  9. Have you recently moved the files on your Mac or renamed anything?

  1. Yes

  3. yes
  4. I clicked to preview a track inside DJ pro library thats the little play button beside the track name in the library when I noticed tracks missing from that time moving forward so might of had something to do with a bug from clicking on the track library preview button

  6. No I don’t use apple streaming
  7. I put my tracks in one folder in my documents then drag them across to the Dj Pro crates

:slight_smile: 15.7.7?? Been there

Either downgrade back to 15.7.1 (anything before 15.7.5 is fine), or upgrade all the way to Tahoe

You might wonna follow these 2 threads…

I don’t believe it’s anything to do with Mac OS

False belief, but hey
Let us know when you solve it (and how).

Thanks for linking these issues @Armigo. I think you’re potentially on to something here.

@Turf_Daz, can you please try rolling back to macOS 15.7.1 or upgrading to Tahoe and retesting? Thanks!

Hi @Turf_Daz, I spoke with our engineers about this. If you use My Collection can you please try reimporting all your music again via dragging the folder/files from Finder and dropping them into the My Collection Music playlist? This might help as it will recreate the bookmarks, which might work around the problem.
