Hi
~
I am the "black sheep/tech monkey" in a family of exceptionally good
musicians. Let me tell you first that they would not put up with
crappy played music
~
I am more of a software person and I would like to know how to DJ my
wedding with Linux, which I will also use to push Linux to my MAC and
Windows friends ;-)
~
what do I need in order to do so?
~
Basically, I have a list of MP3 files, which I would like to play
either at certain specific moments or sequentially as a batch in a
certain order
~
The music will be played out to loud speakers
~
Can a laptop or a PC based on Linux play out nicely to external loud
speakers?
~
Which audio player do I need? Could XMMS do it? Maybe itunes for
Linux or itunes-like something?
~
Would you suggest a nice PCI card to make the music sound really
nice?
~
The person taking care of it should, say, only use the mouse and the
space bar, no actual CDs and extra complications in order to keep the
dancing mobs happy
~
Thanks
