Batch Convert Rekordbox Cue Points to Ableton Warp Markers

🚧 Currently, only splitting the Rekordbox Library.xml to individual track XML files is completed. 🚧

This project allows you to split your exported Rekordbox XML file into individual XML files for each song. Each XML file will contain track information and cue points which can be used to set Ableton warp markers.

Features

Parses Rekordbox XML library file
Creates individual XML files for each track containing cue points
Automatically handles invalid file name characters

Requirements

Python 3.x
Rekordbox XML library file

Usage

Set the input_file variable to the path of your Rekordbox XML library file.
Set the output_folder variable to the desired location for the individual track XML files.
Run the rb_to_als.py script using Python 3.x.

python3 rb_to_als.py

The script will process each track in your Rekordbox library.xml file and generate individual XML files containing track information and cue points.
Use these XML files to set Ableton warp markers for your tracks.

TODO

Automate creating Ableton .als project files for each song so that we can batch convert Rekordbox cue points to Ableton warp markers with convert_cuepoints.py
Add support for Rekordbox phrases

Example

For instance, if your Rekordbox XML library file is located at ~/Desktop/xls_als/library.xml and you want to save individual track XML files to ~/Desktop/xls_als/tracks, simply set the input_file and output_folder variables as follows:

input_file    = os.path.expanduser('~/Desktop/xls_als/library.xml')
output_folder = os.path.expanduser('~/Desktop/xls_als/tracks')

Run the script, and it will generate individual XML files in the specified output folder for each track in your Rekordbox library.
