Play Your DJ Set in Order Before the Gig

You've built the set. Before you load it onto USB, you want to hear it the way the crowd will: in order, one track into the next, with the key changes where you put them. SetFlow can now play a whole set from your own music folder, start to finish, in the browser.

Press play on the set

Every set has a lime play button before its name: at the top of a set you've just generated on Create, and on each set in History. Press it and the first track starts. When it ends, the next one starts, all the way to the end of the set. Press it again to pause.

While it plays, the set's header shows where you are (“Playing 3 / 14”) and how many tracks are left, and the track that's playing glows in the list.

Previous, next and Up next

The player at the bottom of the page gets previous and next buttons, and shows which number in the set you're on. Previous goes back to the start of the track, and a second press goes to the track before, like any music player.

Up next lists the rest of the set. Next to each track is the key move into it, such as 8A → 9A · next key, so you can hear whether a transition works while you look at why. Click any track there, or press play on any row of the set, and the set jumps to it and carries on from there.

Start each track at its first cue

A set played from the top of every intro takes twice as long as it needs to, and the intros aren't what you need to hear. With Start each track at its first cue on (it is by default), each track starts at the earliest cue you set in Rekordbox or Traktor: a hot cue, a memory cue, the load point or a fade-in. A cue in the first few seconds doesn't count (Rekordbox puts one on the first beat of every track it analyses), and a track without any other cue starts from the top. You can turn it off at the bottom of Up next.

Your cues come in when you import your library, and they're drawn on the waveform in the player, so you can see where each track started.

Tracks that aren't in your folder

A set can include tracks that aren't on this computer, such as ones you own on a different drive. Those tracks are skipped and the set carries on. Hover the play button to see how many will be skipped before you start, and Up next marks each one with “no file”.

What you need

• A desktop Chromium browser: Chrome, Edge, Brave, Arc or Opera. Phone browsers, Safari and Firefox can't open a music folder from a web page yet, so the play button doesn't appear there.
• Your music folder connected in Settings. See preview DJ tracks in the browser for how that works. Your files never leave your computer.
