BpmDJ

BpmDj is a program that can be used to DJ. It works under Linux and plays Mp3's/Ogg's. It has a fully automatic BPM counter.

It can determine the sound color. BpmDJ project has a full fledged QT based interface. It will help you manage a large amount of songs. Further it can help in creating playlist and has proven to be very robust.

The program also allows offline automatic mixing and contains a wavelet based beat graph analyzer to visualize audio tracks.

What is new in this release:

• Compiles on Ubuntu 11.10.

What is new in version 4.2:

• New Features:
• Allowing different playrates per soundcard
• Bugs fixed:
• Modifications to the taglist could lead to a program crash.
• ALSA latency issues would lead the program to crash when setting a cue.
• Other Changes:
• Branched midi bindings and external clock off into their own branch.

What is new in version 4.0:

• New Features:
• Added a new beatgraph visualization method based on detecting the primary frequency band
• Added better process management through an overseer process.
• The selector's fragment player does no longer hold on to the DSP device if not necessary.
• Improved the dsp_none driver by avoiding the creation of new threads
• Transformed all old Qt User Interface files (ui3->ui4)
• Added a configuration useable for ubuntu (we hope)
• Tap tempo measurement takes playrate into account instead of resetting it to the normal tempo
• Bugs fixed:
• The problem that ALSA drivers were not always closed before starting a player has been solved, although it is a problem deeply embedded in ALSA. and not related to BpmDj as such. (In practice whan a process forks off a playing PCM handle, it has no way of releasing it. This has been reported to the ALSA developers. Let's hope they deal with it in a sensible manner: E.g: assign some solid semantics to whether a PCM device is or is not shared accross processes)
• starting the checkers on machines under heavy load could crash due to an unpause of the dsp_none driver.

What is new in version 3.9:

• A low latency JACK driver was added.
• The possibility to let bpmplay emit a JACK bar/beat clock or to receive it from another source was added.

What is new in version 3.8:

• JACK support was added.
