eMixer
eMixer gives you the ability to mix MP3's in a similar manner to a DJ's mixing desk.
Newer versions support 2 sound cards so you can output your mix on one card and monitor or cue the next
track on another.
As usual once untaring, read the readme on how to build the package.
You will need to create a playlist of MP3 files, do this with the find command mentioned in the Streaming
section.
You will need mpg123 installed before you can run eMixer.
