This actually sounds like an accurate bpm changer for once! However, I do wonder; Would it still accurately blend / detect bpm for songs that do not have 4x4 beats or songs that do not start with intro beats? If the previous song has an outro beat and the next song has only a melody with no beat yet, would it still blend correctly with a correct bpm?

@DjKDM7000 Thanks for the question. BPM calculation is not an exact science and occasionally the software may experience some difficulty in calculating the precise BPM figure of a audio file if the audio content does not contain a clear beat structure. If you believe that the calculated BPM figure that is shown on the file is incorrect, you can change this figure by clicking on the BPM Parameters and change it manually. To learn more, visit our BPM Audio video tutorials on YouTube, Thanks.

@sarailuv You cannot burn a CD from within trakAxPC, but you are able to export your track(s) to your preferred format such as MP3, WAV, WMA etc.) and then burn them to CD using Windows Media Player.

You can export a mix to a file format of your choice through the Mixing Window. Once your mix is exported, you can burn CDs with Windows Media Player which is free with Windows XP, Vista and 7. You may also use iTunes to a burn CD, please see the iTunes support for burning CDs.

Your voice sounds like Cutman from that old Megaman cartoon that that they don't play anymore

@sarailuv Yes, you can mix any type of music as long as it is not DRM Protected. These are files which have been purchased through the iTunes Store and prevents access, copying or conversion to other formats by end users. A DRM protected file will not work in any audio / video software application other than iTunes. However, most files on iTunes are now DRM-free. If a file is not DRM protected, find the file you want to use and drag and drop the file into the mixing screen or trakkutter.
