New release 20081106

Here is a new Beta release of OpenDJMix.
The main new function is the ability to create user keyboard shortcuts via xml file. I will create a new website section for uploading shortcut files.
There is also a loop editor which able user to save song favorite loop independantly of section management.
You can now drag and drop files between file explorer and turntable which may be quicker than using popup menu.
You can also use 8 channels soundcard to use an external mixer (thanks to Jon Geissinger).

Have nice dj'ing :p

What's up doctor ???

Sorry for the long silence, works are taken up so time to work on OpenDJMix was too low...

  • Users can create their own keyboard layout in an XML file,
  • A new loop editor that will you save your favorites loop for each song,
  • Starting support of midi controllers.
  • Of course, some bugs removed and some performance optimisations...
