Mixxx: DJ mixing software for Ubuntu

Mixxx is an open source mixing package for Linux. It handles the basic functions for all aspiring DJs: buttons mixing, scratch, loop, EQ, crossfader ... Mixxx is also capable of recognizing some external mixing devices, as shown in this video.

Ubuntu 10.04 (Lucid) and 10.10 (Maverick):
Open a terminal, and enter:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mixxxdevelopers/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mixxx libportaudio2

This will install the latest version of Mixxx from the Mixxx Developers PPA on Launchpad.

Ubuntu 10.10 (Maverick):
Our older Mixxx 1.8.0 release can be installed directly from the Ubuntu Software Centre.
