This Year (2025)

We offer two projects:

Key Colors for Rate Slider

The Mixxx Rate Slider can change a track's key (when Keylock is off). This project will add color-coded hints along the slider to show the key the track will shift to at different slider positions.

• Mentor: @danferns
• Skills: First year programming

Key Tuning

Mixxx does not show tuning information of tracks, which makes harmonic mixing difficult in case of non 440 Hz tuning. The project will integrate a tuning detector and show tuning information in the library.

• Mentor: @daschuer
• Skills: First year programming and SQL

Individual Project

In additionyou may offer your own project or select one or two of these projects: https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/labels/hackathon
