Introducing Mixxx e.V. - A Nonprofit Organization for the Community

Do you run Mixxx on macOS? We need your help to test two fixes: accessing a traktor library from sandboxed Mixxx (https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/pull/16205) and also rekordbox (https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/pull/16237)
Follow those links for more details and links to download testing images.
This should be a safe process, but If you have any doubts, back up your settings and library just in case! (https://manual.mixxx.org/2.5/en/chapters/appendix/settings_directory)

The open source community lost an important member recently. Robert Kaye, aka mayhem, was the founder, inspirator and motivator of MusicBrainz. We published a short memorial to him on our blog.

Calling all radio DJs! Even though Mixxx was not originally designed for you, there are a lot of you out there and we want to better serve your community. We have engaged a student through Winter Of Code to improve our Fader Start support, but we need your help! Please chime in on this discourse thread or talk to us in Zulip and help us better understand your needs:

Do you know C/C++? Do you want to work on a challenging pitch-detection algorithm? Mixxx is working on improving our responsiveness under digital vinyl control and we need someone to pair with our project lead to help co-develop an approach that balances responsiveness, accuracy, and resilience to bad input data. This is a great opportunity to stretch your signal processing and algorithmic muscles in a real-world application. Hit us up on Zulip! https://mixxx.zulipchat.com/

We are thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter in the evolution of Mixxx, redesigning the Mixxx user interface in #QML. This significant update aims to enhance customization, improve performance, and ensure better accessibility for a variety of hardware, including tablets and touchscreen laptops, but also to users with vision deficiency.
We're looking for developers, designers, and testers to help us on this journey!

Accessibility is an area #Mixxx has struggled with for a long time, and as an all-volunteer project we have struggled to recruit devs to address it. If you have a passion for accessibility and are interested in a chance to have a big impact, hit us up.

Mixxx Stable 2.5.1 Released!
Thanks to your feedback, this release contains a lot of improvements, fixes, new and improved controller-mappings. We would like to emphasize the importance of testing new versions. You don't have to be a programmer to contribute to Mixxx. Translating, testing new features and checking for possible regression is just as important.
It is recommended that all users update to this new version.

it does not let you pre-compose mixes, but you can record mixes live and post them to mixcloud or other services

And be sure to try version 2.5 out during the next week or so for a special holiday surprise :)

We do have some great new features:
* a "slip-mode" waveform for scratch DJs
* a count of beats until the next marker
* even smoother waveforms
* ease of use features in the library
* library search improvements
* new effects

Mixxx 2.5 Stable Released
As is our Christmas tradition, we have a present under the tree for everyone (even if you don't have a tree!) The biggest change is that #Mixxx is now built for QT6 instead of QT5. While this means leaving certain older operating systems behind, supporting QT6 is an important step in keeping Mixxx relevant on newer operating systems.
We also have a bunch of updates to controller configs.

Mixxx Stable 2.4.2 Released!
As the leaves fall and the first snowflakes start drifting down in the North, while the southern skies start warming up with summer sun, we are thrilled to finally release Mixxx 2.4.2! "Finally" because it's a bit later than planned, perfection can take some time. So we are proud to present you this release, a bugfix release for the 2.4 series before stepping over to a new number.
Check out the blog post for the full list of changes:

edit: we got what we needed! keep a lookout for version 2.4.2 coming soon.
original post:
We are looking for someone running #macOS to do a "smoke test" for the next version of #Mixxx. Just download, install, and play back a few tracks. As long as you don't immediately find a major issue (crash, computer explodes, unable to play music) then it's a success.
