SoundSwitch Rekordbox integration

SoundSwitch Rekordbox integration arrives with the release of SoundSwitch 2.11, which adds official Rekordbox support alongside per-track scripting, autoloops and an expanded fixture library. The update also includes Pro DJ Link Bridge support and follows AlphaTheta opening up Rekordbox to enable the connection. These features are presented as the main aspects of the 2.11 release.

SoundSwitch previously integrated only with Serato DJ Pro, VirtualDJ and Engine DJ hardware, and the addition of Rekordbox means the software now works with additional DJ platforms. The integration requires both a Rekordbox subscription and a SoundSwitch subscription. The press release notes Pro DJ Link Bridge support but does not fully confirm compatibility details for specific Pro DJ Link gear.

The available material states that Pro DJ Link only works with pro gear rather than standalone all‑in‑one units, and that the current Pro DJ Link Bridge version does not include XDJ‑RX3, Opus Quad or XDJ‑AZ. The integration cannot make use of the FLX‑10’s built‑in DMX socket, while DMX output via the discontinued RB‑DMX1 or the DDJ‑FLX10’s DMX port is available on every plan, including the free one. Rekordbox Lighting mode is noted to work in Export mode with Pro DJ Link players as well as in Performance mode.
