What music player is everyone using?

[anon(819941)]

I had another look at Google music, it looks like they changed it to read my library off my phone sd card ... but the album artworks leaps all over the screen and I can't figure out how to stop them!

Unless you absolutely need your entire music library all the time, every time, I just don't see the point. You can pin many albums in your smartphone standard memory, it's 32GB after all, then play the stuff you listen to less often at home through your wifi connection. That's what I do and it works perfectly for me. When I feel like I am listening to an album more often, I'll pin it, as well as unpinning whatever is not so hot anymore for me.

Your system partition can easily take 10GB of music without blinking, and that's simply a lot of music.

I keep all my music on my sd card, which can be up to 64GBP so plenty. This way when I change phones it's instantly transferable. And I won't lose it if I have to do a factory reset.

I let spotify store it's tracks on my phone memory, these are not permanent and I often change downloaded playlists so I'm not bothered if I lose them.

My basic rule is programmes on phone memory, permanent data on sd card

I'm using Google Music and I'm very pleasantly surprised by it. I put all my music in Google's cloud and stream to my phone because I have unlimited data. Last night I discovered the pin to my phone feature (download music from the cloud to your device). I'm going to do this for all of the music I am currently listening to on a regular basis. Coming from iTunes and an iPhone this all feels very sophisticated and liberating.

I'm just using stock for now. It gets the job done. I also use cover art downloader to get the album covers.

Then it flips to this

And flips back and forth between those images every second

Same for any album in my own library

Mine don't "flip" but when I have this screen open it moves back and forth very slowly. No matter because it's not like I keep the screen on while I'm listening. I actually thought that was pretty cool,, the way it slowly moves around. I have not found a way to stop it.

I have a few music apps on my device. Usually I use Google's Play Music for local files and ones in my Google cloud. For streaming from other sources, I kind of like TuneIn Radio (I actually have the Pro version), since it can connect to all sorts of feeds.

Tap on the picture of the Album art on the Top left that will stop the album art on the screen. It will put the album art on the bottom of the screen and you will have the song list.

Sure, but I like to see the album art. Stock player does this, so I must carry on using that and spotify until they fix it.

I typically use and love Spotify, but when I want to listen to music locally on my phone's SD card, I use MediaMonkey, which is on both my PC and my phones (Note 3). MediaMonkey is one of the best, if not THE best player and organizer on the market. unlimited ability to organize music in ANY manner you wish.

+1 on PowerAmp.... way better than stock music player...

Plus 1!

10 band equalizer is the bomb. I'm using stereo bluetooth headphones and these sound awesome after tinkering with the PowerAmp equalizer.

Mx video player is very good and plays all kinds of video files in stunning quality.

For those of you who are using PowerAmp's headphone crossfeed, I need to tell you guys that it is not a proper crossfeed and sounds terrible. The algorithm is incorrect because it does not properly process the bass frequency, thus accumulates buildup that muddles the lower frequencies significantly.

If you want a proper crossfeed that's audiophile quality, Neutron Music Player is the only true audiophile quality music player app on Android currently: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neutroncode.mp&hl=en

I tried using Neutron and loved the sound. However I can't stand it when it reduces the level when the track changes. For this reason alone I've switched back to Poweramp.

Just activate the Replay Gain, which is the standard volume-level matching feature in most music players. Neutron is a lot more in-depth than most music player apps, since it is made for serious audiophiles who want the best sound quality. There are a lot of things you can tweak in Neutron, and you need to take the time to learn about the features. The developer's website has a comprehensive user's manual.

Perhaps what I need to do is DE-activate Replay Gain?

Well, if you are trying to have all the tracks playback at the same volume so you don't have to change the volume every time the song changes and gets really loud or really quiet, then you want the have Replay Gain "activated." It will analyze all the songs in your cue and play them back at the same peak volume. Keep in mind, peak volume means the loudest point in the song. So if you have a classical track that is very quiet in the beginning and then gets epic/bombastic later in the track, it "should" be quiet in the beginning, and if you turn the quiet intro up so it's adequately loud, then later when you get to the epic/bombastic part, it'll just completely distort and blow out the sound into a mess of fuzz.

If you don't want all the songs to play back with the same loudness peak level, then turn Replay Gain "off."
