[Question] Equalizer for music player

Is there an Equalizer available for the music player on the magic?
Have not been able to find one..

None?????

Nope there isn't one by default.
You can probably get one thrown in with an alternative music player, tho I don't know their names, perhaps have a look?
Anyways the player on the magic is already pretty good.

I've tried the default media player, htc media player (hero rom or installed manually) and mixZing all DONT have it. Shame because the last two are damn good media players in other respects.

Best media player? Any recommendations?

Windows media player seems to be really crappy to use and slow.. and nice smooth interface thats very popular for playing music?

I use pocket player. It does everything I need, sound quality is good and it has a great library.
Disadvantage: It's not freeware.

Nitrogen - free, cool .. but has some minor bugs .. occasional stutter and some mp3 can't be played. But hey, it's rather young project.
CorePlayer - not free, not as good controls, but usable, and has best audio quality (I mean NO stutters ever, if you check 'higher priority for audio').
And on Xperia you have media panel. It works. But I play songs by folders, not by albums or playlist, so no joy for me.

try s2p with s2u2 (just disable all the autolock stuff).. I love it just because it turns itself on when plugin headphones or connecting a stereo bluetooth device and it stop she music and closes when you remove them.. Sound quality is similar to wmp bc it uses its engine (though i gotta say its ok) To me, this is the most convenient music player (it does playlists too)
however, i've been pushed by a friend to try core player (i don;t if i got it right..) He told me that was the best player he tried so far.. then again, he has a raphael... so dunno...
for convenience, i like s2p (mainly if your lazy or dont want to hunt down for the player and kill it later )

core player as the x panel had a lot of issues playing acc files

Hi, Do you want an audio player or Vedio player?
If you need the first one, Pocket Player will be better.
Coreplayer is good for vedio, but only WMP could work with X.264 code.

If you need the Audio Player, Pocket Music Player will be better.
Pocket Music Player supports X-Bass and Preamp. X-Bass + Some Custom EQ + Preamp made very good sound.
I recommand you Pocket Music Player.

Winamp

Hi guys,
I decided that I want to use winamp as my default music player for several reasons... however, I like the srs and dolby effects that the stock music player has.
Is there any way to have those (especially the srs) with winamp???
thanks in advance.

you can use poweramp it has an equalizer which can simulate the SRS effect also you can use dsp manager but on some roms its a battery drainer.

Yeah, PowerAMP is awesome. Get it.

I do have it as well. The thing is Winamp reacts to my headphones controls.

PowerAMP? I would like a speedy and great music player PLUS I like to play SomaFM.

Is PowerAMP the one for me? I use DoubleTwist right now, and it's got lots of issues. But it does let me get to some SomaFM Stations.

IMO Poweramp does not compare with any player on Output. its almost like they have muted the audio output on it. Its the only player that I have come across that does this.

Poweramp defaults to having the equalizer and tonal control on. Go into the Equalizer settings and unclick EQU and PRE and TONE. Once done the volume is equal to the Samsung music player at least for me. Poweramp is awesome simply because of that customizable equalizer.

Tried that.......no worky........I tried comparing the stock music app and Poweramp using your method, and any other setting I could find. Poweramp is aesthetically pleasing, but the sound quality isn't up to par with me.
The equalizer became obsolete with Voodoo Sound! Which is one of the greatest improvements to this phone. Thanks Supercurio!

That was my experience, as well. I tried a song at the same sound level with both and with PowerAMP I could hear some noticeable distortion. Sucked because I paid for it and am no longer using it.

Moved to proper forum.

Use voodoo app and power amp it is amazing

You might want to try the moto music app from here. It's loaded with tons of features. Auto looks up words for your songs while they're playing and highlights them as they're sung. Links to YT vids, has shoutcast, tune identification via sound hound (I believe), links to tunewiki, has sleep timer, and downloads songs. Doesn't have a equalizer though. IMO, the sound quantity and quality is comparable to the Samsung app. Oh, it's also free.

I tried pretty much ever music player out there and really was disappointed with many. Finally tried Music PlayerPro Trial, bought the paid version that same day it was soo good! By far the best player I have used with the most features/options.

I checked this one out after reading your post. It's a great music player! Hands down the best one I have yet found. Thanks for the info.

what are you guys talking about with poweramp sucking?
the default music app and playerpro don't even find my music because they are apparently unable to handle album-structure. what the hell? even IF their sound quality was better, i refuse to put all of my mp3s into one folder.
plus - when i first tried out poweramp yesterday, i was stunned by the sound. same equalizer settings as on my computer with soundblaster x-fi and winamp and it sounds a hint fuller. and it can push bass even further without distortion - i didn't even know my headphones were able to produce that and had to reduce it because while it worked, it didn't sound good any more.

Playerpro finds all my music in different folders with album structure just fine. Overall its the best out there with skins, equalizer, lockscreen widget, etc... well worth buying

Same here......... My SD card is fully structured as well.
It even links artist pics, and sorts the albums under the artist pics.
Overall its a great player. I like how there is a music player that actually integrates lyrics properly now.
If your having good luck with PowerAMP, then that's good for you! My overall experience with it wasn't good.

huh... i wonder what the problem is with my phone as i would like to compare these apps. but what the hell, poweramp works great and i don't want to spend hours figuring out what's wrong. -_-

Poweramp works great. For those that have problems with muted sound, you have to go into the equalizer and raise the settings. If this causes distortion, lower the pre-amp setting or turn off tone. I usually keep my pre-amp setting a third of the way up. Even close to half way will cause some distortion. I've tried every music app I could find on different speakers and poweramp is the best MUSIC player. Pro player is nice but eq doesn't compare to poweramp. Looks alone though, Proplayer is mighty pretty but I didn't spend $2000 in speakers for a pretty music app. Poweramp = best sound.

I use PowerAmp bc i like the widget best. The MotoMusic app thats on these forums is awesome though. Ijust like poweramps widget better

For listening to shoutcast (like somafm) I like Xiialive. But it only plays shoutcast, you have to use something else for playing local media

i was using XIIA until I found this.. this seems better IMO

What music player do you use?

So my PowerAmp trial expired and I'm too cheap to buy anything.
Are there any good Music player apps worth trying? What players do you use?

Hi,
I use PlayerPro. Like it a lot. The additionally DSP soundpack is great. Has a lot of features like lyrics, auto album art, import winamp stats, etc.
Give it a try...

might be a long shot, but for free players with equalizers, u can try blackbird and xplay music. n7 player is also worth giving a shot.
i personally use the Custom music player of supressed

PlayerPro is the best and the most beautiful one

Went with PlayerPro, definetly a well featured and pretty player. Thanks!

Since I do not demand much from the phone, I have enough and the standard player. And so, I liked Vanilla Music Player.

i also use playerpro..
but it's also a payd app...
until now the best music app i used..

MixZing is pretty good
Using it daily

i´ve been using ³ (aka Cubed) music player, i enjoy its simplicity.
but too each it´s own

I use default music player which also has equallizer. Who can tell me why some other players is better than it ?

I used the ics google play music with external eq until it started fc on me now I use player pro, tried power amp before but between the two, its a though fight.... but I like player pro you better its cleaner but if you talk about functionality its a toss up between power amp and player pro for me....
search button..... just do it.....

Oh the google play music shuffle function is better between the three I've tired imo
search button..... just do it.....

I use Double Twist player... and yes the description on the market is right about this. it's an iTunes killer but for android.

I once used it and it messed up E.V.E.R.Y.T.H.I.N.G (SD card, my songs and even my Rom!)

I'm current using Power amp player, one of the best music player ^^

I'm using PowerAmp

I use PlayerPro w/ DSP pack but i thats because i cbf tring to find one that looks better. I reckon the ui is real ugleh but it has loads of features.
There is really nice looking one called ubermusic. It has undoubtedly the most amazing interface, completely customizable but i prefer the feature packed PlayerPro.

does someone else uses a good one besides playerpro or poweramp?
for me a music player must have the following features:
- an equalizer
- when browsing for music it must have the option to browse folders.
most music players have the option to browse title, artist or album..

My favorite is Rockbox. With Eq, Folder Option, and free =)
