PROJECTS
Spin-Up/Spin-Down Effect on Play/Pause
Problem Statement
A real turntable cannot instantly start and stop a track. The tempo increases gradually when pressing play and spins down after pressing pause. This effect has been implemented in various controller mappings but is not yet available for GUI controls and keyboard. The project aims to review existing mapping solutions and move them into the C++ domain of Mixxx.
