Bug Description

It would be nice if we offered a way to add a (customisable) naming pattern to the recorded files.
Like %Year-%Month-%Day %Hour%Minute%Second %Name %Extension

Also the recorded files could be automatically available in an "Recordings" sub-menue in the library pane.

It's definitely useful but I do not know if it is a good idea to close Traktor...

What you mean by "to close Traktor..."?
It resembles T`s functionality too much or is it the "Recordings" sub-munue naming?
Imho this is not unique to T - same feature is available in ssl, itch , cross etc..

Once we have smart playlists/crates we could use them to organise recordings in a folder though. No need for extra sub-menue then.

Sorry for the typo... I mean to clone Traktor.

I've a Traktor Pro installed and there's also a recording item in the library. If you start recording, Traktor does not ask where to save the file and just records via naming convention to some location.

But if this is not a unique feature in Traktor, we can implement this.

I think we should overhaul this for 1.10 with a "My Recordings" library feature. For now I think adding a simple pattern to the filename might be useful for 1.9.0

Don't believe anybody is working on this currently for 1.10.0?

I've implemented Recording2 feature. At the moment the naming patterns date/time based.
