Windows 10 with Mixxx

[musicology]

I was wondering if anyone using Mixxx Dj software has upgraded to Windows 10 and had any issues,
I suppose it would be also be handy to know if those using software other than Mixxx have experienced any problems. I'm nervous about upgrading just in case I regret it!

Its fine with serato. But unless you have window vista I wouldn't bother. Windows 10 constantly updates and when you search for a tracks using the search browser on your laptop etc, you have to open the folder before copying over. On windows 7 you could just drag n drop.

I had more issues updating Win10 than I have from using software.

I actually like Win10 as an OS. However, I don't like the "door-to-door-salesman" tactics that MS are using to get people to upgrade. It should be a free choice for the user.

I'm a big fan of windows 10 on my desktop with dual monitors - works excellently and is an improvement in many ways. However it's not without its issues:

UA25 soundcard does not support windows 10 / will never. Had to find a workaround!

Start menu button stopped working. Had to restore to previous date to get working again (took around 4 hours to faff about with) and last night my fiancées laptop did the same (at least I know what to do now)... Common problem, if it did happen I wouldn't be bothered on work laptop as I have shortcuts.

I'm sure they will iron out the bugs... Just in time for when they charge you to upgrade it probably haha.

I keep seeing horror stories like this about 10. I think I'll stick with 7 for home use & Linux for DJing. Going to be giving Mixxx 2.0 a good going over soon. I've tried it on my 7 machine & found it nice - the new master tempo/pitch correction is absolutely butter smooth. FX? MEH.

I've just tried the latest Mixxx 2.0 and hated it. Too busy, hate the layout and colours, and it kept freezing so have gone back to 1.11 and all is well again. I'm not mucking about with anything now!
