@sparkly-quasar sparkly-quasar released this 03 Aug 05:04

Experimental build of Mixxx with rekordbox/CDJ USB export.

This is a preview build of Mixxx (2.7-alpha) with two features added via the
openboxxx project:

  • Library → "Export Library to rekordbox USB" — writes an unencrypted
    export.pdb + ANLZ analysis files in the classic PIONEER/ layout (tracks,
    playlists, hot cues, memory cues, beatgrids).
  • Library → "Cue Sheet to Tracklist…" — turns a recorded-mix .cue into a
    readable tracklist .txt.

Opening an unsigned build

These are not code-signed, so your OS will warn you:

  • macOS: right-click the app → OpenOpen (or System Settings →
    Privacy & Security → Open Anyway).
  • Windows: SmartScreen → More infoRun anyway.
  • Linux: sudo dpkg -i mixxx-*.deb (then sudo apt -f install if it asks
    for dependencies).

⚠️ Please read

  • Experimental / unofficial. This is a personal fork build, not official
    Mixxx. Keep your normal Mixxx installed too.
  • The export completes without errors and round-trips through independent
    parsers, but has not yet been confirmed by importing into rekordbox desktop
    or on physical CDJ hardware
    — feedback very welcome, especially from anyone
    with CDJs.
  • It runs against your existing Mixxx library. As always, back up first.
