I just discovered Mixxx 1.7.0 a few days ago and found it really great but most of my MP3 are not tagged and appear as blank lines in the library view and in the play queue. This makes Mixxx unusable for me. I would be really thankfull if you could simply make that filenames are displayed when ID3 tags are not available. Many thanks to the development team for their great work.

WOW great!
ReplyDeleteI'm a amateur-dj and i love mixxx. In my opinion mixxx is the greatest dj-software all over the world.
Thanks to the team! I just can't wait until mixxx 1.8.0 is released.
Thanks and greetings from germany,

Hmmm...I'm on Ubuntu 8.10; downloaded the .deb and installed it with dpkg -i. With 1.6.x, my hercules DJ Console Mk2 worked just fine but now it is not working. I don't know where to look for help.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: Please consult our wiki for information on how to get your Hercules up and running on Ubuntu 8.10. Hercules released an official driver that is required to make it work in Mixxx 1.7.0:

I tried it on Ubuntu 9.10 and it still doesn't work with ALSA. 1.7.0 didn't work either. 1.6.1 works just fine.

ReplyDeletephobik
I can't wait to see the bug with libportaudio fixed...
ReplyDeleteThe only thing missing to make me install mixxx 1.7.1
Hi phobik, we're always looking for help! Mixxx is coded in C++... Stop by our IRC channel, there's usually a couple of our developers hanging out in there (#mixxx on Freenode), and we can get you started.
ReplyDeleteThanks,
Albert
Mixxx looks like an incredible peace of hard work and it is hard to believe that such a great-looking application is free & open-source.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I miss support for different timecode-types such as Numark Virtual Vinyl/VDJ, Torq or MixVibes (with needledropping of course, otherwise it may be a little inconvenient to use). Is anything in this direction planned for the near future?
Thanks!
Anonymous: Right now we don't have any plans to support additional timecode formats, but we'll slurp up whatever timecodes xwax supports in the future.
ReplyDeletePlease made for that track whos are for the people, the letters "Channel 1" or "Channel 2" with blinking colors in yellow !
ReplyDeleteWhen do you expect v1.8.0 to be avalible and do you need beta testers
ReplyDeleteWe hope to have a public beta of 1.8 out before the end of the year.
ReplyDeleteAlbert
Mixxx is a great tool but when i use ordinary microphone and select a channel to get my beat b4 playin it out it sounds in the master thus not working lke the typical mixer which allows you to listen to tracks while another is playin without interferance.
ReplyDeletethis is actually a really good software for it to be free all over the net thx
ReplyDeleteI cant wait till 1.8 comes out mostly for looping :)
ReplyDeletehopeing that ladspa effects will be in 1.8 but the looping sounds and looks neat as
ReplyDeleteif no one else had thought about it(I doubt,I'm the onlyone) It would be neat to use the new Macbook pro or PC equivalients multitouchpad gestures as crossfader (left to right)or even volume up and down by using one vs. two finger vertically for channel one vs channel two.
ReplyDeletethis is just a thought. it would be cool. it would be like a built in mixer.
this would probably hard to do.
Ladspa effects wont make it into 1.8 for sure. They are not ready yet.
ReplyDeleteRegarding multitouch gestures check out Controllermate, should do the trick even with Mixxx 1.7 http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/17779/controllermate
the BPM detection tool is not the easiest and most accurate, i would like to see mp3 recording instead of .wav
ReplyDeleteand where in Gods name is the auto record button?
great idea but needs a lot more work
Please add support for .m4a and .aif
ReplyDeleteMore than half of my iTunes lib is in .m4a
Well it good in my taste just need more feature and adj. to it
ReplyDeleteMixx need more function like looping a song ,a play list so we Now what were playing and it keeps a list of it, Better Adj.for sound cards(like adding 2 master instead of Headphone but u can still add headphone so that the sound card can read) and Vinily control add a window so we can Adj. the vinily control etc.
put it like this if every body know how all DJ program are EX: VirtualDJ has loop feat.and Adj for soundcard and vinily control and a play list so u know what u played etc.
Now PcDJ DEX has good Adj. for soundcard and Vinily control but is lacking on what i said above and
DeckaDance well its the same thing its good but need more
