Do you want to try your luck as a DJ but don't have much knowledge yet? Then it would be best if you started with one of the exemplary programs developers are making available to us, and Mixxx is undoubtedly one of them. We are talking about a platform designed primarily as a mixer for DJ sessions, which will run on your desktop or laptop computer consuming minimal resources.

The best thing about Mixxx is that in just seconds, you can simultaneously upload two songs that you have stored on your computer, to customize or mix their audio tracks in the way you think is most convenient. Besides, it is an easy-to-use application since all the controls are in the foreground. This way, without having to switch windows or tabs, you will be able to see all the possible tools.

Of course, once you upload a song to Mixxx, you can visualize a good part of the information that this software can offer us about the different files, such as the duration of the song, the BPM, or the specific minute in which we are playing, which we can fast forward, rewind, pause, etc., as many times as we want.

One of the advantages of this application, especially for users taking their first steps in the segment, is that you can record each of your sessions to listen to them whenever you want. This will allow you, in a simple and fast way, to regulate a series of essential aspects of each song, being able to make modifications in new sessions.

If you want to know what music files this DJ mixer will allow you to play, you should consider that most current ones can be used without any problem. These include FLAC, WAVE, OGG, or MP3. Above all, it is common to find MP3 music tracks, so we believe you will not experience any problems.

At the same time, this application has microphone support. If you want to record voiceovers or record yourself while singing to add these audio tracks, you can do so without resorting to a second program open simultaneously.

Suppose you have a library stored in iTunes. In that case, this program will allow you to synchronize all the contents in just a second, so we are talking about an application that does not leave any of your content aside. Of course, you can modify the files you uploaded to Mixxx as often as you want, adding some new ones or removing the old ones in simple steps.

As for the Mixxx interface, we have to say that it is one of the sections of the program that we liked the most, taking into account that it stands out above all for the simplicity of use, from a series of panels and windows very clearly divided. It is a perfect platform for all those users who want to take their first steps mixing music or who already have some knowledge but are looking for really simple software.

We found this application ideal, especially for those users who suddenly need a DJ mixing program and can't waste time on endless installations. We are convinced that with this app, you will be able to solve any unexpected situation, accessing most of the usual functions without missing any of the ones you use daily.

Reviewing a little bit of the main strengths of Mixxx, we have to say that it is an application that stands out, especially because it will allow you to fully integrate your music library and add all kinds of external controllers. If we add to that its great compatibility with most audio formats and the ability to create playlists, it is clear that this is a complete tool.

Of course, Mixxx also has some issues that have not convinced us, and although none of them is too serious, we can see that it only allows the mixing of two tracks at a time when other mixers are much more versatile in this regard. On the other hand, you will see that it may take a few hours of testing to learn to use all its functions, although this is logical to think that this is rather technical software.

In any case, we must say that Mixxx is a good mixer for DJs, one that meets perfectly in most sections in which we require a program of this type, so we are sure you will find it useful. And remember, just in case, that we are talking about version 2.0 of the program, not the first one that appeared on the market, so if you knew only that one, it's time to give it a new opportunity.
