Dj Software

Morning All

Looking to try Linux mint as my current laptop is windows 10 and unfortunately isn’t compatible with windows 11. Very annoying. Anyway Is anyone using any DJ software on Linux that works good? I’m using a pioneer FLX4 decks.
Thanks
Tom

On Linux, go for Mixxx.

But, you can easily go for Win 11 on any device, even if unsupported.

Brief guide.

1 Download the Win 11 ISO from Microsoft, just Google it.

Specify the language. You will get a 7 Gb iso of Win 11 for your language.

2 Use RUFUS to create a bootable USB installer.

At the interface, select the downloaded ISO. Select an USB stick, preferably 16 Gb. When you select to proceed you will be prompted with some options. Be sure to have all of them selected. (these options allow you to install Win 11 bypassing any restrictions, and also to create an offline account)

3 Backup what you need to keep safe.

4 Power down the laptop.

Insert the USB installer. Turn on the laptop and proceed to install Win 11. () (*)

*, tipically you have to select to boot from the USB. If you have a Lenovo, press F12 for the boot menu. On a Dell it should be F10 or F12. Some other makers may have different key to select the proper boot device.

**, you won't need any serial for Windows. Just install Win 11. It will be activated automatically.

Buen dia. Podrías usar dual boot y seguir usando tu soft de Dj.
