16.5. Mixxx Controls

Nearly every knob, button, or fader you see in Mixxx’s interface is controllable via Mixxx’s «control» system. The control system allows skins, MIDI controllers, HID controllers and keyboards to control Mixxx via a single interface.

A control is identified by a «group» (which is used for grouping associated controls) and a «key» (the name of the individual control).

For example, the volume fader for Deck 1 is identified by the group [Channel1] and key volume. Similarly, the volume fader for Sampler 1 is identified by the group [Sampler1] and key volume.

The group is used to collect all the controls that affect one component of Mixxx into one collection. Some groups have a high overlap of controls in common (e.g. samplers, decks, and the preview deck all share the same control keys).

In addition to controlling Mixxx, the control system can be used to inspect Mixxx’s state. For example, the sample rate of the track loaded in Deck 1 can be accessed via the [Channel1],track_samplerate control. You can read the [Channel3],play control to determine whether Deck 3 is playing.

The default value range is 0.0 to 1.0, unless otherwise noted. Binary means that it is either “ON” (non-zero) or “OFF” (zero).

Dica

Discovering Controls used in Skins

You can view the control connected to any part of a skin by running Mixxx with the --developer command line option and hovering your mouse cursor over part of the skin. If no tooltip appears, enable tooltips for the Library and Skin in Options ‣ Preferences ‣ Interface.

Dica

Changing any control from the GUI in Developer Mode

When running Mixxx in Developer Mode (with the --developer command line option), you can view and manually set the state of any control in Mixxx by going to Developer ‣ Developer Tools.

Dica

Simplify mapping of more complex behaviour

While simple mappings with just a few buttons, knobs and LEDs can easily be created with the MIDI Wizard and some basic scripting, implementing more complex behaviour like switching deck layers or pad grid modes can be tedious and error-prone. For these cases you can use Mixxx” Comonents-JS library which provides building blocks for single controls as well as entire containers like decks and effect units.

ControlPotMeter controls

The following extensions add some features to ControlPotMeter controls (volume, crossfader, …). Use in conjunction with [ChannelN], [SamplerN], [Master], … groups.

Control Suffix

Description, example

_up

Increases the value, e.g. [ChannelN],rate_perm_up sets the speed one step higher (4 % default)

_down

Decreases the value, sets the speed one step lower (4 % default)

_up_small

Increases the value by smaller step, sets the speed one small step higher (1 % default)

_down_small

Decreases the value by smaller step, sets the speed one small step lower (1 % default)

_set_one

Sets the value to 1.0, sets the channel volume to full

_set_minus_one

Sets the value to -1.0, sets the channel volume to zero

_set_default

Input: sets the control to its default, return to default waveform zoom level

_set_default

Output: set to 1.0 if the control is at its default, light up the pitch fader center indicator

_set_zero

Sets the value to 0.0, put the crossfader in the middle again

_toggle

Sets the value to 0.0 if the value was > 0.0, and to 1.0 if the value was 0.0, will cut off/on a track while you’re playing

_minus_toggle

Sets the value to -1.0 if the value was > -1.0, and to 1.0 if the value was -1.0, can tilt the crossfader from left to right

These controls can be used in JavaScript files like this:

// This won't work:
engine.setValue(group, "pitch_up_small", 1.0);

// Use this instead:
script.triggerControl(group, "pitch_up_small", 50);

To use *_toggle the respective shortcut for scripts is:

script.toggleControl(group, "keylock_toggle", 100);

The [App] group

The [App] group contains controls that do not belong to a specific channel, the mixer or the effects engine.

[App]indicator_250ms

Decks, Preview Decks and Samplers

Each deck in Mixxx corresponds to a [ChannelN] group. Whenever you see [ChannelN], think «Deck N». N can range from 1 to the number of active decks in Mixxx.

Preview decks and Sample decks («samplers») in Mixxx are identical to regular decks, they simply have a different purpose (previewing tracks or playing samples, respectively). Any control listed above for [ChannelN] will work for a samplers and preview decks, just replace [ChannelN] with [PreviewDeckN] or [SamplerN].

Nota

In case of fractional loops (e.g. 1/32), the rate of beat events can be very high. You should test if your controller is capable to process this update rate. If not, inhibt the beat indication for short loops, depending on the value of [ChannelN],beatloop_size.

[ChannelN]hotcue_X_activate
[PreviewDeckN]hotcue_X_activate
[SamplerN]hotcue_X_activate

If hotcue X is not set, this sets a hotcue at the current play position and saves it as hotcue X of type «Hotcue». In case a loop is currently enabled (i.e. if [ChannelN],loop_enabled is set to 1), the loop will be saved as hotcue X instead and hotcue_X_type will be set to «Loop».

If hotcue X has been set as a regular cue point, the player seeks to the saved play position.

If hotcue_X_type is «Loop», looping will be enabled and the loop controls (e.g. loop_start_position, loop_end_position and beatloop_size) will be set accordingly. Just like reloop_toggle, the player seeks back to the loop start when the current play position is behind the loop, and enabled without a seek when it is in front of or inside the loop. This allows a loop catching behavior on one hand and a jump back when the loop has been exit by just triggering this control.

Setting the control to 1 when the track is currently not playing (i.e. play is set to 0) will start hotcue previewing. After resetting the control to 0, playback will usually be stopped and the player will seek to the hotcue position. If play is set to 1 while previewing is active, the playback will continue and no seek occurs.

Range:

binary

Feedback:

Player may change position. Hotcue X marker may change on waveform.

Microphones and Auxiliary Channels

In contrast to decks, preview decks and samplers, microphones and auxiliary channels are input channels. You can map audio interface’s inputs to mixxx’s auxiliary input channels and connect external audio source to it (cellphone, mp3 player). Then you can use your MIDI controller to control its volume and some other parameters (orientation, gain, volume), apply effects and use the prelisten function.

Although the first auxiliary group is named [Auxiliary1], the group for the first microphone is just called [Microphone], not [Microphone1].
