3. Clean up your libary 

Too many DJ´s confuse their private track collection with their DJ Track collection. Complete albums, EPs whole or entire collections can be found here two or three times. Various tools for MAC like the Gemini duplicate scanner or the “quick search” functions in Windows can identify Such duplicate titles or folders and you will be able to remove them later.Why you dump your archives with tracks you wouldn’t play again? If you clean up this mess you will make the collection much clearer, easier to manage and the duplicates didn´t impede you when you search for tracks. For the future it is worth to do such a “clearing action”.You do not play any of the titles from the top 100 list forever. Doubts? Simply create a temporary archive playlist to make a backup.
