Multi-Column sorting
Novo na versão 2.0.
You can sort multiple columns by clicking up to three column headers you wish to sort your tracks by. This makes searching for tracks in a large list more efficient. Clicking twice on a column header will reverse the sort order.
Example:
Click on the BPM column header -> list is sorted by BPM
Click on the Year column header -> list is sorted by year. If year is equal, it is still sorted by the last criteria, e.g. BPM.
Click on the Genre column header -> list is sorted by genre. If genre is equal, it is still sorted by year. If genre and year is equal, then it is sorted by BPM.
- Avaliando faixas

6.2.1. Menu de contexto da lista de faixas¶
Novo na versão 2.0: Reload Track Metadata from MusicBrainz, Change BPM context menu options and Cover Art
Alterado na versão 2.0: All BPM related options are in the BPM Options sub-menu.
Clicando com o lado direito nas faixas selecionadas na lista de faixas revela o menu de contexto:
Add to Auto DJ: Adds the content of the selection to either the bottom or top of the Auto DJ playlist for automatic mixing.
Load to Deck/Sampler: Loads a selected file to a Deck, Sampler or Previewdeck. Alternatively simply drag it to the Mostradores de Onda. Note that you can’t load multiple files at once.
Add to playlist/crate: Add selected tracks to playlists or crates you have previously created. Alternatively, drag the selection to a playlist or crate in the sidebar.
BPM Options sub-menu:
Change BPM: Allows to change the BPM to 50%, 66%, 75% or 200% of the BPM set by Mixxx when analyzing the tracks. If many of the detected BPM values are incorrect, you might want to adjust the BPM Range in the Analyzer Settings and re-run the analysis.
Travar/Destravar o BPM: Trava/Destrava o BPM das faixas selecionadas para que você não possa editar eles nas propriedades da faixa. O ícone
perto do BPM da faixa na coluna da biblioteca é alternável. Clicar ele vai definir o seu estado para “travado”, e o ícone muda para 
.Clear BPM and Beatgrid: Removes the BPM and beatgrid data from the selected tracks in the Mixxx library. After doing this, we recommend analyzing the tracks again.
Reload Track Metadata from File: If the track’s metadata changes, (e.g. if you used iTunes to edit it,) this option lets you save the new values for the selected tracks to the Mixxx library. See edit metadata.
Reload Track Metadata from MusicBrainz: Look up metadata online by searching the MusicBrainz database and apply the search results to your tracks. See edit metadata.
Cover Art Option sub-menu:
Choose New Cover: Select an image from the file browser as the cover.
Unset Cover: Delete any cover information saved for this track.
Reload from track/folder: Reload the cover from the tracks’ ID3v2 tags or a picture in the track folder if the tags do not supply any.

Properties: Similar to inline editing explained above, the properties dialog allows you to view and edit metadata such as title, artist, album, and view the full file name and path. Note that you can not edit multiple files at once.
Nota
A maioria dos itens do menu de contexto também estão disponíveis nas listas de arquivo das outras visualizações como no Auto DJ, nas Listas de Reproduções, e nas Caixas.
6.2.2. Músicas Faltando¶
The Missing Tracks view is accessible by expanding the Library tree item in the sidebar. Any tracks that were previously loaded into your library but were later not found on your drive will appear here. Mixxx does not automatically delete records of missing tracks so that extra metadata Mixxx might have (such as hot cues and beat grids) will not be lost in case the file is replaced.
As funcionalidades em detalhe:
Botão de Selecionar Tudo: Seleciona todas as faixas na visualização atual.
Botão Eliminar: Elimina as faixas selecionadas da biblioteca do Mixxx, mas não remove elas do seu computador. Isso vai deletar todos os metadados que o Mixxx tem da faixa.
6.3. Carregando Faixas¶
Novo na versão 2.0: You can drag tracks from deck to deck.
Faixas podem ser carregadas em um deck de várias maneiras:
Right-click the library track table: Right-clicking on a track in the table will present the options Load in Deck 1 and Load in Deck 2, among others. Making either selection will load a track into a deck.
By Usando um Teclado to load the selected track in the library track table.
Drag-and-drop from library track table: Dragging-and-dropping a track from the track table onto a waveform display will load the track into that deck.
Drag-and-drop from deck to deck: Once you’ve loaded a track to deck, sampler, or preview deck, click on the track title and drag it to another deck or sampler.
Drag-and-drop from external file browser: Dragging-and-dropping a track from an external file browser directly onto a waveform display in Mixxx will load that track. This function also works with some other applications. For example, on Mac OS X, dragging-and-dropping a track from iTunes onto one of Mixxx’s waveform displays will load it into that deck.
6.4. Procurando Faixas (Pesquisa)¶
The search function filters the currently displayed list (e.g. a playlist, a crate, or even the whole library) for tracks that match your search query.
Activate the search input field by clicking in it or pressing CTRL + F (Windows/Linux) or CMD + F (Mac).
Type your search term(s). Mixxx filters the tracks as you type and shows only those matching the search term(s). Search terms can include an artist’s name, a song title, BPM, etc.
Para limpar o campo de pesquisa pressione ESC ou clique no botão limpar perto do campo.
Hit TAB to cycle between the search and the list of results in the library. Use the ARROW UP and ARROW DOWN keys to scroll in the list of results.
Nota
Se o campo de pesquisa estiver com foco, os atalhos de teclado estarão desativados, veja Usando um Teclado.
6.4.1. Usando operadores de pesquisa¶
Operadores de pesquisa permitem que você forme pesquisas mais complexas. Elas permitem que você limite certos termos de pesquisa para propriedades particulares de suas faixas.
Novo na versão 2.0: Adds location, album_artist, and key search keywords. Supports
human-readable time suffixes in time-based search query filters, e.g.
1:30, 1m30s, 1m30, 90, 90s. Supports negative search
filters.
O Mixxx suporta os seguintes filtros:
Text filtering: artist, album, album_artist, genre, title, composer, comment, key, location
Numeric filtering: year, track, bpm, played, rating, bitrate, duration
Special filtering:
Supports fuzzy matching of key searches. The following example list tracks with harmonically compatible keys to C# minor.
~key:c#m
You can combine operators but there’s no way to do an “OR” search right now. The following example list all tracks by “Danger” over 3 minutes long that are rated 4 or 5.
artist:Danger duration:>3m rating:>=4
Filtros de pesquisa negativos. Use o prefixo
-como operador de negação. O exemplo seguinte vai encontrar “hip-hop“ de qualquer ano menos o de 1990.genre:hip-hop -year:1990
Examples for text filtering |
Examples for numeric filtering |
Examples for duration filtering |
|---|---|---|
artist: “com truise” |
bpm:140 |
duration:2m10 |
album:Danger |
bpm: >140 |
duration:<2:10 |
genre: Trance |
year: <2010 |
duration:>1m35s |
title: foo |
bpm: >=140 |
duration:>62 |
composer: foo |
rating: <=4 |
|
comment: foo |
bpm: 140-150 |
|
genre:hip-hop -genre:gangsta |
played: >10 |
|
Note it doesn’t matter if you have space between the colon and the argument or not. Quotes must be used for multi-word text arguments. |
Note that you can put a space after the colon but currently there must be no space between the operator and the number. |
Note that you can put a space after the colon but currently there must be no space between the operator and the number. |
6.5. Pré-escutando Faixas¶
To pre-listen to a track, activate the Preview column in a library
view. Clicking the icon in the library’s
Preview column loads the selected track into a special Preview
Deck that will only output sound in the
headphones channel. Click the
icon to stop the playback.
Alternativamente, selecione uma faixa da lista de faixas da biblioteca do Mixxx, arraste a faixa para a visualização de ondas do Deck de Pré-escuta e clique no botão Tocar perto das ondas.
To display the Preview deck, press CTRL + 4 (Windows/Linux) or CMD + 4 (Mac).
6.6. Edite os metadados dos arquivos de áudio¶
O MIxxx lê metadados relevantes das faixas e mostra eles nas colunas da biblioteca. Você é livre para editar a maioria dos metadados, e o Mixxx oferece um número de diferentes formas de fazer isso. Note que algumas informações não podem ser editadas, como a taxa de bits, tamanho, duração, tipo, nome do arquivo e localização.
Nota
O Mixxx não suporta a edição de metadados de várias faixas ao mesmo tempo (edição em massa).
Aviso
Changes to a track’s metadata will be saved to the Mixxx library, but not to the track itself. Mixxx wont touch your audio files to prevent data loss.
6.6.1. Edição Manual¶
- Edição de Faixas na Linha
Double-click on a field in the library. If the field is editable, it will become an editable text box. Enter a value and hit Enter when you are done.
Biblioteca do Mixxx - Edição na linha¶
- Editor de Propriedades:
Click on a single track in the library and select Properties to open the editor. Add or change values in the editable fields, and save your changes as explained below.
Biblioteca do Mixxx - Editor de Propriedades¶
OK: Aceita as mudanças e fecha o editor.
Apply: Accept the changes and leave the editor open.
Cancelar: Descarta as mudanças e fecha o editor.
Anterior/Próximo: Carrega a faixa seguinte ou anterior na visualização atual da biblioteca.
Reload Track Metadata from File: Prompts Mixxx to re-read the metadata of the selected track (such as when you have modified it externally with another application.)
Reload Track Metadata from MusicBrainz: Look up metadata on-line by searching the MusicBrainz database. See below.
6.6.2. Usando a base dados online do MusicBrainz¶
Musicbrainz is an open-source music encyclopedia that collects music metadata and makes it available to the public.
Biblioteca do Mixxx - Assistente MusicBrainz¶
The MusicBrainz wizard in Mixxx allows searching the MusicBrainz database and applying the results to your tracks.
Clique em uma única faixa da biblioteca e selecione Obter Metadados no MusicBrainz. O Mixxx busca dados da faixa do banco de dados do MusicBrainz e mostra os resultados da busca.
Select the best match from the search results by clicking on it in the list.
Aplicar: Aplica os metadados selecionados no MusicBrainz na faixa.
Fechar: Fecha o assistente.
Previous/Next: Load the previous or next track in the current library view and perform a MusicBrainz lookup on it as well.
- Fetching track metadata from MusicBrainz can fail:
if Mixxx is unable to find the specified track in the MusicBrainz database,
if Mixxx cannot reach the MusicBrainz servers (if they are down,)
or if you are not connected to the Internet.
Dica
The MusicBrainz service has been designed for identifying full audio files. If a track is less than 2 minutes long, identifying the file will likely fail. Identifying a layered mix-track or mash-up may produce false positives in the result list.
6.6.3. Using third-party software¶
If you have modified file metadata in third-party software, select in the menu on top of the application window. This prompts Mixxx to re-read the metadata from all tracks in the library.
6.7. Auto DJ - Automatize a sua mixagem¶
The Auto DJ queue is a special playlist that contains extra
controls for automatic mixing. This is useful when taking a break from live
mixing or for using Mixxx as media player.
As funcionalidades do Auto DJ em detalhe:
Shuffle button: Randomizes the order of tracks in the Auto DJ playlist.
Add Random button: Add random track from Auto DJ track sources.
Botão Pular faixa: Pula a próxima faixa da lista de reprodução do Auto DJ.
Botão Desvanecer agora: Começa a transição para a próxima faiax.
Transition time spin-box: Determines the duration of the transition. A negative value will add a pause between tracks.
Botão Ativar Auto DJ: Liga/Desliga o modo Auto DJ.
The Skip track, Add Random and Fade now buttons are only accessible if the Auto DJ mode is enabled. The Search field in the upper left corner is disabled in Auto DJ. By default, Auto DJ removes tracks after playing them but if you want it to play the same tracks over and over again, you can activate the Auto DJ Requeue option in .
Auto DJ Crates
Novo na versão 2.0.
It is possible to add random tracks to the bottom of the Auto DJ playlist. The tracks are chosen from a set of crates that you have set as a source for Auto DJ, or from the standard library. Mixxx will normally try to select tracks that haven’t yet been played. You can set a minimum number of tracks that are always available for selection no matter when they were last played in .

6.8. Playlists - Arranging tracks in a set order¶
Playlists are ordered lists of tracks that allow you to plan
your DJ sets. Some DJs construct playlists before they perform live; others
prefer to build them on-the-fly.
Playlists are not directly loadable into decks as Mixxx is primarily intended for live, attended performance use. However, you can right-click a playlist to queue it to Auto DJ, so in a sense you can “play” it.
Create a playlist: Right-click on the Playlists sidebar item and select New playlist. Name the playlist and click OK.
Add Tracks: Add tracks to a previously created playlist by dragging-and-dropping a selection of tracks from the library or playlists onto the name of a playlist in the sidebar. Alternatively, use the right-click context menu in the library’s track list.
Novo na versão 2.0.
Analyze Playlist option in the context menu.
Import playlists by dragging-and-dropping them into a playlist in the sidebar.
Import playlist and Export playlist context menu options remember the last selected playlist directory.
The total number of tracks and total duration are displayed next to the playlist’s name.
Right-click on an existing playlist name to access the different features in the context menu:
Adicionar ao Auto DJ: Adiciona o conteúdo da lista de reprodução à fila do Auto DJ para mixagem automática.
Rename: To rename a playlist, just enter a new playlist name and click OK.
Duplicar: Algumas vezes você quer construir uma lista de reprodução baseado em uma existente. Selecione a lista de reprodução que você quer duplicar, escolha Duplicar Lista de Reprodução, nomeie a nova lista de reprodução e clique OK.
Remove: Removes an unlocked playlist. Tracks that were in the playlist remain in the library for later use.
Travar:
Esse ícone indica uma lista de reprodução travada. Se uma lista de reprodução é travada, você não pode adicionar faixas, renomear ou deletar a lista de reprodução. Escolha Destravar no menu de contexto para destravar a lista de reprodução.Analyze entire playlist: Forces the analysis of the tracks in the playlist in the Analyze view.

Export playlist: Export a playlist to various file formats such as
m3u,pls, orcsv. This allows you to use the data in other applications.
6.9. Crates - Organizing tracks into collections¶
Crates are unordered collections of tracks, just like DJ cases
holding your favorite records.
Create a crate: Right-click on the Crates sidebar item and select New Crate. Name the crate and click OK.
Add Tracks: Add tracks to a previously created crate by dragging-and-dropping a selection of tracks from the library or playlists onto the name of a crate in the sidebar. Alternatively use the context menu in the library’s track list.
Novo na versão 2.0.
Analyze Crate and Auto DJ Track Source context menu options.
Import crate and Export crate context menu options remember the last selected playlist directory.

Esse ícone indica uma caixa travada. Se uma caixa é travada, você não pode adicionar faixas, renomear ou deletar a lista de reprodução. Escolha Destravar no menu de contexto para destravar a caixa.Auto DJ Track Source: Use this crate as a source for random tracks in Auto DJ, see Auto DJ crates .
Analyze entire crate: Forces the analysis of the crate in the Analyze view.
Import crate: Import tracks from external playlists in various file formats to a new Mixxx crate.
Export crate: Export a crate to various file formats, such as
m3u,pls, orcsv. This allows you to use the data in other applications.
6.9.1. Caixas vs. Listas de Reprodução¶
Crates are unordered collections of tracks. Unlike playlists, they cannot contain duplicate entries and do not support arranging tracks within them.
Often DJs group tracks by genre, keep lists of favorite tracks, and/or prepare lists of tracks they want to play at a particular party. In these cases they rarely care about the order since they will choose it at the party based on the dance floor and mood. They certainly don’t want duplicates in these lists. Crates serve these purposes. You can think of them like labels in GMail or Web 2.0 tags for your music.
If however you want to plan out a specific set and practice the transitions, you will want an ordered list of tracks. Playlists serve this purpose.
6.10. Browse - Loading remote tracks¶
Browse mode works like a file manager and allows you to load
tracks from anywhere on your computer that are not necessarily already in your
Mixxx library.
Novo na versão 2.0: Add music directories directly from the Browse sidebar item.
Click the Browse sidebar item to navigate the computer and find your
music. Depending on your operating system, your music will usually be
found in the “My Music” or “Music” folder. Drag the files you want to import to
the Library icon or directly to the
Mostradores de Onda.
Nota
Currently you can only drag files (not folders) to the Mixxx library.
Right-click on a folder and choose Add to Library to add the folder as an additional music directory. Mixxx will watch this directory and its subdirectories for new tracks.

Right-click and choose Add to Quick Links. The folder is now pinned below the Quick Links. To un-pin that folder, right-click and choose Remove from Quick Links.
6.11. Gravações¶
In this section of the library you can start and stop
recording your session as well as view previous recordings and the dates they
were made.

Para mais informação, vá para Gravando sua Mixagem.
6.12. History - Keep track of your sessions¶
The history section automatically keeps a list of tracks you
play in your DJ sets. This is handy for remembering what worked in your DJ sets,
posting set-lists, or reporting your plays to licensing organizations. Every
time you start Mixxx, a new history section is created. If you don’t play any
tracks during the session, it will be discarded.
Esse ícone indica a sessão atual.
Novo na versão 2.0.

Export playlist: Export a session in various file formats. This allows you to use the data in other applications.
6.13. Analisar - Prepare suas faixas¶
This section allows you to analyze your tracks in advance of loading them into a deck. Analyzing tracks requires considerable CPU power and may cause skips in the audio while performing, so it helps to have your tracks analyzed before you play. See Analyze your library for details.
6.14. iTunes, Traktor, Rhythmbox, Banshee - Using external libraries¶
Bibliotecas suportadas:
iTunes (Windows, Mac OS X)
Traktor (Windows, Mac OS X),
Rhythmbox (GNU/Linux)
Banshee (Windows, Mac OS X, GNU/Linux)
Novo na versão 2.0: Support for Banshee music player
The external library views allow you to use music libraries you have created in these third-party applications. You can access music as well as playlists. If available, Mixxx automatically loads the external libraries from their default locations on your hard drive.
Nota
