Nice writeup.

Rekordbox is interesting software coming to it new in 2026.

The UI feels like something from the 90s, but the thing is dense with features. The business model where buying a physical controller unlocks a license tier while physically plugged in is kind of nice in the saas bs era, feels like 90s license dongle magic. It also has a lot of settings to default things one way or the other rather than having a strong opinion... which also feels somewhat 90s.
