Available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux.

Here's the skinny on all the new features in Mixxx 1.11.0:
  • Colored, 3-band Waveforms
    • Don't miss a beat. These waveforms make every kick, snare, and thumping beat stand out.
  • Brand New Beat Detector
    • With a brand new beat detection system based on the latest academic research at Queen Mary University, Mixxx's beat detection is now deadly accurate. This means your loops, hotcues, and beatsyncing will be spot-on.
  • HID and Bulk Controller Support
    • Mixxx now supports non-MIDI devices using its powerful scripting system. 
    • Mixxx 1.11.0 comes with HID presets for the following devices:
      • EKS Otus
      • Traktor Kontrol F1
      • Hercules DJ Console Mk1
      • Hercules DJ Console Mk2
      • Hercules DJ Control MP3 e2 (driver no longer necessary on Linux)
      • Nintendo Wiimote
      • Pioneer CDJ 850/900/2000
      • Sony SixxAxis
  • Session History
    • Whether you need to report your setlists to ASCAP or just remember the tracks you played last night, the new Session History feature keeps track of every tune you drop so that you don't have to.
  • Beatloop Rolls
    • This stunning new effect works just like a beatloop except when you release the button the deck jumps to where it would have been if you hadn't started the loop. Try it out by right-clicking on a beat-loop button.
  • Preview Deck
    • A highly-requested feature, the new preview deck allows you to preview tracks in your headphones without having to load them into a main deck. Just click preview on any track in the library and it will start to play in your headphones.
  • Advanced Search
    • The library search box received some much-needed love. Try out these example queries:
      • bpm:100-120 rating:>4
        • All tracks between 100 and 120BPM with rating greater than 4.
      • artist:"Aphex Twin"
        • All tracks with "Aphex Twin" in the artist column.
      • genre:electro bpm:>115
        • All Electro tracks with BPM greater than 115.

  • Improved AutoDJ
    • Now you can customize the crossfade period, re-queue tracks instead of removing, and more.
  • Point-and-Click MIDI Mapping
    • Getting your controller mapped is now easier than ever. Just click on the button or knob you want to map in Mixxx and then wiggle the control on your MIDI controller to wire it up. 
  • New Sample Grid skin
    • With 16 sample decks, this skin is perfect for radio DJs and advanced beat-jugglers alike.
