xwax is an open-source Digital Vinyl System (DVS) for Linux.
|
|
It allows DJs and turntablists to playback digital audio
|
|
files (MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, AAC and more), controlled using a
|
|
normal pair of turntables via timecoded vinyls.
|
|
|
|
It's designed for both beat mixing and scratch mixing. Needle drops,
|
|
pitch changes, scratching, spinbacks and rewinds are all supported,
|
|
and feel just like the audio is pressed onto the vinyl itself.
|
|
|
|
The focus is on an accurate vinyl feel which is efficient, stable
|
|
and fast.
|
|
|
|
Optionally install `faad' (AAC) and/or `ffmpeg' in advance for various
|
|
additional audio formats. With stock Slackware packages, it already
|
|
supports MP3, OGG, FLAC, WAV, AIFC & PCM.
|
|
`xwax-import` needs `ffmpeg' for other media than MP3 or CDAUDIO.
|
|
|
|
Note:
|
|
xwax does not work without realtime priorities and so uses POSIX
|
|
filesystem capabilities to execute with elevated privileges
|
|
(required for realtime audio processing). This may be considered
|
|
a security/stability risk.
