EZLibraryEZLibrary snapshots any Serato file it is about to write, automatically. The Backup tab is the deliberate version of that: a full, self-contained copy you can take before a big change, or on a schedule you keep yourself.
Backups land in a SeratoBackups folder, each in its own timestamped directory, as ordinary files you can browse in Finder.
What it does
- Three modes. Full for everything, incremental for what changed since the last one, single crate for one night's music.
- Estimate first. The size and file count are shown before the backup starts, so a full backup never surprises you.
- Genuinely incremental. Tracks already captured in the previous backup are skipped instead of re-copied.
- Tolerant of gaps. A single-crate backup no longer aborts because one referenced file has been moved or deleted — it skips it and carries on.
- Plain files. No proprietary archive. It is a folder of your library and your music, restorable by hand if you ever need to.
How to use it
-
Choose a mode
Full for a real safety net; single crate when you just want tonight's set safe.
-
Check the estimate
Confirm the size and count against the free space where the backup is going.
-
Run it
The backup is written to a timestamped folder under
SeratoBackups.
Run a full backup before your first duplicate cleanup or consolidation. Those are the two operations that delete or move real audio files.
