Mixxx integrates the tools DJs need to perform creative live mixes with digital music files. Whether you are a new DJ with just a laptop or an experienced turntablist, Mixxx can support your style and techniques of mixing. Drop a song onto a deck in Mixxx to start playing right away. Keep your eye on beats and cue points with a scratchable, scrolling waveform together with a whole-song overview waveform for quick seeking.
Mixxx was originally created in 2002 as part of a PhD thesis on new interfaces for DJing by Tue Haste Andersen. After releasing the project as open source, dozens of contributors began modifying and improving Mixxx. BPM and musical key detection help you find the perfect next track from your library. Use Sync Lock to match the tempo and beats of four songs for seamless mixing. Built-in mappings for DJ controller hardware gives you hands-on control of Mixxx's features. Use the programmable mapping system to customize your workflow and add support for any MIDI or HID device. Add your unique spin to tracks with sound effects. Get creative by chaining multiple effects together and twisting all their knobs. Use turntables with timecode vinyl records to control playback and scratch your digital music files as if they were pressed on vinyl. Mix music vinyls into your set by toggling vinyl passthrough mode.
