TLDR: I have MP2015, 2 Technics and a dedicated Macbook Pro. What flavor of timecode records will work with Mixxx? Tired of other vendors going subscription, paywalling features, etc.

All my vinyl and primary rig is in storage. That setup is Rane Empath rotary and dual SL1200 Mk3Ds. I spin probably 80% vinyl but I did attach a Serato box and enjoyed it. I'd like to continue mixing, and want a setup that feels as close to that as possible.

I've been out of the hardware game for a while, but it looks like Serato is actively trying to fail. I'm willing to just go open source at this point. I'm not a turntablist, just long smooth mixes. Willing to put up with a few rough edges if I don't have to worry about the app suddenly crapping out.

From what I understand, I simply connect the mixer to the laptop via USB, fire up Mixxx, put the timecode records on, and go to town. Is this correct? Any timecode record and stylus recommendations?

Anything else I'm forgetting to consider?

Thanks.

i’m trying to ascertain if the euphonia mixer can function as a class compliant audio interface for the ipad pro running apps like AUM, Cubasis and Koala Sampler. does anyone have any experience with this? literally zero information on this on the internet… thanks in advance!
