Linux user - Export to Pioneer & Engine USBs fail

Georgios started this chat a month ago

Hi folks,
I've been using Mixo on Linux for a few months now (Gold on and off) and I'm struggling to get any of my tracks on my USBs. I'm on a mission to stop using big corp for stuff and I don't have access to Rekordbox or Engine. I own a pair of second-hand Denon SC6000 but usually play on Pioneer as is the industry standard.

I'm having a couple of issues that I'm wondering if you can help me with. Apologies in advance if the answer already exists somewhere and appreciate your patience if you can point me to it.

  1. The track analysis seems to be all over the place for many of my tracks and reanalysing them doesn't seem to do the trick. I'm talking beatgrid / BPM being rather off. Any solution that you can recommend beyond manually making changes to a rather large number of tracks?
  2. I cannot for the life of me export onto a USB for neither Pioneer nor Engine. The export starts and fails pretty much immediately. I have a couple of gigs coming up and want to put some new and existing music on a couple of playlists and export them to the USBs but no luck so far.

Any help would be massively appreciated.

Cheers

Hi there!

Firstly, MIXO usually just imports beatgrids from DJ apps but seeing as you’re not doing that it will default to the built-in grid which probably isn’t as accurate as DJ software. Saying that, there were some great improvements in v2.11 that might help, if you re-analyse BPM.

As for the export to Rekordbox USB, we had another Linux user with similar issues recently and all were tested and confirmed working. Just make sure you are clicking Export USB and not just the regularly export.

Here’s the thread for reference:
