    For me, the Export option is greyed out. i'm in export mode and formated to ms-dos (FAT32) on my macbook. I'm thinking my macbook may be too old (2016).. or, the SSD I bought just isn't recognized. Crazy thing is, I imported music into rekordbox but can't export a playlist. I may go buy a usb stick just to see if that works vs the SSD (Brand is Gigastone)

    Way to fuck up the fx Serato 👎👎👎 unhappy customer the removal of single use fx is limiting and the removal of the fx looper is a deal breaker I use that a lot for making on the fly scratch loopers with drumming on the slicer I have whole routines based off this - you have given us a nerfed version of Algoriddim DJs fx - total fail in my opinion the fx suck stop trying to be the same as pioneers and Algoriddim
