Multi-Core Support for analyzing WAV data

[GSXR1K]

My apologies if I posted this in the wrong forum, I'm a noob here

I'll try and keep this short and to the point. I use Pioneer CDJ-2000Nexus units with Mp4 files. Right now I'm using Rekordbox to analyze my Mp4's and export the WAV data to my thumb drive (so I can visually see the beats/breaks/drops).

My question is simple, do any of your products (paid or free) analyze music files significantly faster than Rekordbox? I assume multi-core support would be necessary for this (I have 8 cores and only one thread is active when analyzing in Rekorbox).

If you offer such a program, please point me in that direction and I'll be happy to pay for it. Right now my 8 core (32GB of Ram) Mac takes several hours to analyze a measly 500 mp4's. I know it's Rekordbox that is "choking" because I've used several other computers (PC's) with identical results. My library consists of 50,000+ songs and as you can tell, time is important to me. Thank you kindly for responding!

not shure whats going on in record box,not familiar with it ,, can suggest that you down load the free version and try it out ,,compare the results to what goes on in recordbox,, the free version has some limitations ,but not thinking there would be any along the lines of anylising songs

FYI, here's the MixVibes forum, not the Pioneer one
Rekordbox being a Pioneer product, you'd better ask on the Pioneer forum !

Even if we build Recorbox it's the good answer as recordbox specifications are Pioneer orders.
I don't think any product comply here with your very specific needs with full multicore power but I am not as sylmv who gave the first answer a developper

Thank you both for your replies. I have left the Pioneer forums because there support/customer service absolutely sucks! I was hoping the makers of Rekordbox (MixVibes) can offer me a better solution to Pioneer's Rekordbox because I have spent $10,000 USD on Pioneer DJ gear and I'm stuck with an application that performs terribly.

I am willing to pay for a quality software application and I'm wondering if the "Cross" application (which doesn't appear to have a trial/demo) will suit my needs.

My apologies if I sound frustrated. My frustration is not with MixVibes but with Pioneer. So I have come to the "God father" (you guys) to ask for help

I guess the confusion is the way I asked my question and the way Rekordbox works and the way Cross DJ works.

Rekordbox will analyze the WAV data for mp3'/mp4's and export this data to a USB Thumb drive. You then plug in your USB thumb drive into your Pioneer CDJ units where you can see the WAV data as you mix/scratch on the CDJ units.

CrossDJ appears to be programmed around the use of a MIDI controller, am I wrong? I don't see a way in CrossDJ-Free 2.4 to "export wav data" to a USB thumb drive. Since Rekordbox is painfully slow at this process I was hoping Cross DJ or (Cross) would provide this functionality much faster.

For future reference, If you want to use HID, then you should be looking at Cross.

CrossDJ doesn't support HID or timecodes

Very interesting post... Good for future thoughts.

Thank you for this information. So Cross and Cross DJ are two separate products, correct?

Please excuse my ignorance but was is "HID"? Also, do you know if Cross will export WAV/Timecode data to USB drives for playback on Pioneer CDJ units?

Just to clarify, I'm looking for something that performs/analyzes music better than Rekordbox which at the moment is painfully slow.
