The DJ world is about to become more open.
As part of its ongoing commitment to the sustainable growth of DJ culture and a more open industry environment, AlphaTheta has been actively collaborating with other manufacturers
on an exciting new initiative.
In a key step forward, the company has worked with multiple
leading DJ equipment and software makers to jointly develop OneLibrary, a unified music library format that works with software and hardware from different brands. Until now, differences in library formats across brands could limit you to specific software and hardware, which often mean't you might not be able to access your personal music libraries or use USB devices on all the equipment available at a venue.
OneLibrary addresses this by standardizing essential DJ performance data such as playlists, cue points, and beatgrids across compatible platforms.
This shared library format gives you far greater flexibility, with the option to play your music on a wider range of equipment, from performing with a computer at home to using USB drives at venues. Speaking about One Library, Yoshinori Kataoka, President and CEO of AlphaTheta Corporation, commented: Were thrilled to launch One Library, a step forward in making creative expression more seamless for DJs
everywhere. At AlphaTheta, our mission is to empower DJs to express themselves freely, without limitations. Were
grateful to our industry partners for sharing that vision and coming on board with this initiative. And this is just the
start so stay tuned. Karim Morsy, CEO of Algoriddim GmbH, said: At Algoriddim, weve always embraced open, accessible DJ technology that empowers creativity. Collaborating with AlphaTheta on One Library aligns perfectly with our mission to remove barriers in the DJ ecosystem. By allowing users to export djay Pros library for direct use on pro hardware like the CDJ-3000X, CDJ-3000, or the XDJ-AZ, were giving DJs the flexibility to perform seamlessly across setups whether at home, in the club, or on stage. Nick Williams, CEO of Native Instruments, also shared his thoughts: Everything we do at Native Instruments is about inspiring and enabling creators to express themselves through sound. OneLibrary is a big step toward a more open and collaborative DJ ecosystem where music moves as freely as the people who play it. Were proud to be an early partner with AlphaTheta in this initiative, and to bring seamless USB export not only to Traktor Pro 4 users worldwide, but also to new DJs starting out on Traktor Play.
djay Pro, Traktor Play, and Traktor Pro 4 support OneLibrary via USB Export What began as AlphaThetas Device Library Plus has evolved into OneLibrary through collaboration with other
manufacturers. Thanks to the collaboration with Algoriddim and Native Instruments, OneLibrary now allows DJs to export their music libraries for seamless use across djay Pro and Traktor software. djay Pro supports USB Export today, with Traktor Play and Traktor Pro 4 support due in upcoming updates.

Your exported DJ library includes all essential DJ performance data, such as playlists, BPM, key information, cue points, beatgrids, and waveform data. This means that even if you use djay Pro, Traktor Play, or Traktor Pro 4, you can perform with just a USB drive no laptop is needed. AlphaTheta has conducted compatibility testing on this.*
Traktor Play and Traktor Pro 4 are scheduled to support OneLibrary in the coming months.*
