There seems to be an issue between Cross & SDJ.
If I analyze my tracks in Cross, I have to re-analyze my tracks in SDJ.
I like to keep both my libraries (Cross & SDJ) updated so that if I ever have an issue with one or the other I have a back-up plan.
I hadn't updated my library in Cross for a while, so after importing the tracks & analyzing them (over 500) when I opened up SDJ the next day, all the tracks that I had analyzed in Cross, I had to re-analyze in SDJ again. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again?
Why is this happening?

Likely your tracks were updated by tags of Cross and SDJ and vv, which causes one or more tags change in the track-file.
Don't know about SDJ, but in Cross you can disable tags being written to tracks in General tab of Preferences.
Of course this means that no changes in collections will reflect in the tags.
Could be the 'new' gain and key analysis showing it.

If you can spend a few $$ (think like 5) then a backup plan by using Cross DJ for the iOS or Android version will provide you even more options...

I think you're right, that's probably the culprit.

Wow, I wasn't even aware of that. I'll give that a try. Thanks for your help.
