Mixxx ermöglicht es Ihnen, mit Ihrer Musiksammlung live DJ-Sets zu erstellen. Es hilft Ihnen, die Party zum Laufen zu bringen - mit DJ-Controllern, Turntables oder einfach nur Ihrer Tastatur. Die Software wird von einem internationen Team aus Freiwilligen entwickelt, die den Spaß am DJing allen Menschen verfügbar zu machen. Das Projekt ist gemeinnützig, open source und wird von der Community getrieben. Gemeinsam haben wir das Ziel, die beste DJ-Software zu erschaffen, die es gibt. Wir hoffen, Sie treten der Community bei!
Mixxx unterscheidet sich von einem gewöhnlichen Musik-Player, weil man mehrere Musikdateien zeitgleich abspielen kann und man außerdem mithilfe vieler Features die Möglichkeit hat, die Lieder während des Abspielens zu verändern. So haben Sie die Möglichkeit, kreativ unterschiedliche Lieder zu vermischen.
You can use Mixxx to preview the next track in headphones before the audience
hears it, also known as headphone cueing. This helps you choose a track that
is appropriate for the present moment and that will mix well into the
currently playing track(s). To use headphone cueing, you need at least 2
separate audio outputs, typically provided by a USB audio interface (also known
as a “sound card”, although most of them are not shaped like cards anymore).
The shortcut for headphone cueing in Deck1 is T while for Deck 2 the shortcut is Y.
Mixxx can be used in two different ways for headphone cueing:
Internal Mixing
Mixxx plays multiple audio files on the computer at the same
time, mixes them together, and sends the mixed signal to one audio interface
output. A separate signal is sent to another audio interface output
for headphone cueing. Often a DJ controller is used with internal mixing to
provide easier control over Mixxx than a mouse and keyboard.

DJ controller has an integrated audio interface that provides two separate
stereo outputs.
External Mixing
In this kind of setup, Mixxx plays multiple audio files on the computer at
the same time and sends each track to a separate audio interface output. The
audio interface’s outputs are plugged into an external hardware mixer. The
hardware mixer performs the actual mixing of the audio signals. On the
hardware mixer, there are separate outputs for the mixed signal to play to
the audience and for the DJ to use headphone cueing. External mixing is
typically used with turntables and special vinyl
records to manipulate digital music files as if the music was
on the vinyl records.
