MIXXX

Mixxx is a free and open source MP3 DJ mix application; you just have to Drop a song onto a deck in Mixxx to kick off your next mix. Each deck features a scratchable; scrolling waveform that marks beats and cue points. You can speed up and slow down songs, also if you need to extend your mix while you prep the next track you can instantly loop a 4, 8, or 16 beat segment with the click of a button. These features are only examples of an enormous variety of a very easy to use application.
