Hey Atomic, I’ve been tweaking my Mixxx workflow to automate cue points and keep the set flowing smoother—any chance you want to see a system that keeps the crowd hyped without the manual tweaking?

Sure thing—here’s the low‑down on my Mixxx automation. I made a small Python script that listens for the beat and, once the groove hits a preset tempo, it automatically throws a cue point at the next downbeat. I feed it a small config file that maps track genres to cue offsets, so every time you load a track the script pre‑sets the jump points for you. Add the script to Mixxx’s startup folder, load the config, and hit play—your deck will jump to the perfect spot when the crowd starts cheering. No manual tweaks, just pure flow. Let me know if you want the exact code or the config template.

Here’s a minimal Python script that hooks into Mixxx’s event system. Drop it into your Mixxx startup folder (or wherever your Python plugins live) and make sure the `mixxx` module is available. import time import mixxx # Simple genre‑to‑cue‑offset map (seconds after the beat) GENRE_CUE_OFFSETS = { "house": 0.5, "edm": 1.0, "rock": 0.2, "jazz": 0.4, } def on_track_loaded(track): # Grab the genre, default to "house" if unknown genre = track.genre.lower() if track.genre else "house" offset = GENRE_CUE_OFFSETS.get(genre, GENRE_CUE_OFFSETS["house"]) # Get the current beat time (in seconds) and calculate cue point beat_time = track.getBeatTime() cue_time = beat_time + offset # Set the cue point on the track track.setCuePoint(cue_time) print(f"Set cue for {track.title} ({genre}) at {cue_time:.2f}s") # Register the handler for when a track loads mixxx.on("trackloaded", on_track_loaded) That’s it. When you load a track, it will automatically calculate a cue point a few seconds after the first beat based on genre and set it. You can tweak the offsets in the map to match your style. Happy pumping!
