I made some little hacks to get single deck control working in my
lp:~ywwg/mixxx/features_xwax branch.  If you select single deck mode,
mixxx will use the first deck device to control both tracks.  It's up to
the DJ to enable and disable the control mode either through the menus
or with midi.  For some reason I'm not seeing mixxx show up in my midi
list any more, so I haven't been able to test the midi control.  It was
working before, though.

I've also added the skin that I use, "Trancer-DJO-3" to the tree.  That
skin has the UI elements you'll need to make vinyl control useful.  This
includes:  a border around the track area that indicates vinyl control
-- green for OK, orange for end-of-record warning (it blinks!), and red
for needle skip.  There's also a button that toggles between the vinyl
control modes, ABS, REL, and CONST.  

CONST is "constant mode," which keeps the track going at whatever speed
it was playing at when you switch to that mode.  This mode is used for
needle repositioning.  When the needle reaches the end of the record
(which happens with long tracks), mixxx automatically goes into CONST
mode so the DJ can reposition the needle without causing the music to
stop.  The DJ can then switch to REL mode to continue.

Now that the tree is basically feature-complete, it's time to whack it
with a stick and see what shakes loose.  There's already a crasher I
mentioned in another email, and there's certainly other things lurking
in there to be found (like, you're in single deck mode, 2nd deck
enabled, then turn off single deck mode -- most likely bad things will
happen).

thanks,
Owen
