Mixva

I DJ. I record most of my sets. Every time I finished one and wanted to put it online, an hour or two would disappear into the same shape: Audacity for stitching, some editor for trimming, a normalizer plugin, a notepad for the tracklist, then hopping between four upload forms. Every time. Mixva is the tool that job needed.

The pitch is simple. Drop the raw recording in — whatever the booth left you with, Zoom H-series, CDJ line-out, phone if I forgot better gear. Mixva stitches the pieces, trims dead air at the head and tail, and normalizes to a true-peak target that survives Mixcloud's AAC transcode without triggering their limiter. It reads your Rekordbox history for the set and builds the tracklist from what you actually played, then falls back on audio recognition for the gaps — vinyl, guest sets, USB swaps.

What comes out is a master audio file and per-platform descriptions ready to paste into Mixcloud, SoundCloud, and YouTube. Recording to published, in one workflow.

I built it because the alternative is doing the same 90 minutes of post-production every time you play, and that's the kind of tax that keeps DJs from posting sets they'd be proud of. The product is Mac-first because that's where the pain is felt live, and because AVFoundation carries the audio pipeline further than most cross-platform toolchains would.
