In macOS 11 (Big Sur) and newer, the convention for app icons is to have a rounded rectangle-like shape as described here:

It would be cool if Mixxx could have a icon in this style on macOS. To clarify, I could imagine that the icon would look similar to the attached prototype.

Thank you very much for the prototype. Is it also OK to change that for all MacOS installations?
The icon is located here:

Can you propose you new design as a GitHub Pull request?
