If you want the latest stable release of ‘Wine’ which is currently 1.6, then enter the below command. Sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa Open up the Terminal emulator and enter the below commands. First we need to install ‘Wine’ on Ubuntu (I am running 13.10 but the same instructions should work on other versions as well) & then we will install ‘Virtual DJ’ for Windows setup using it &, … that is it!. So, without any further delays, let us begin the ‘process’ □. I decided to write a simple ‘how to’ guide hoping that someone else might also find it useful. So I decided to see if it could be run on Ubuntu 13.10 using ‘Wine’ (a tool that lets you run some of MS Windows software on GNU/Linux), and as you can see from the below screenshot, despite few small issues, I was quite successful in doing so. But as a GNU/Linux user, the problem with ‘Virtual DJ’ is that it runs on Windows and Mac OS X only. ‘Virtual DJ’ is also one of the leading MS Windows based music mixing software and many DJ hardware devices (such as those from ‘Pioneer’) include built-in support for ‘Virtual DJ’. It is easy to use, beginner friendly, & there is a free version available which despite some of its restrictions, is still an excellent piece of software. I am not a DJ, but after seeing one of my friend’s work as a DJ, I also wanted to try it a bit (just for fun □ ), and that is how I came across ‘Virtual DJ’.
