    USB Audio Player PRO

    USB Audio Player PRO

    eXtream Software Development

    Supporting USB audio DACs to play audio files up to 32-bit resolution at any sample rate! Will play any popular format including wav, flac, wavpack, ape, mp3 and DSD files. This app is a must-have for every HiFi enthusiast, bypassing all audio limits of Android. But even without a USB DAC, the app supports many of the HiRes audio chips found in the latest phones, allowing you to play at a much higher quality than standard music players, even the ones that come with your phone! When connecting an Android phone or tablet to a USB DAC, USB Audio Player PRO will unleash the full power of the DAC, by using our custom-developed USB audio driver. This bypasses the Android audio system completely, meaning that Android's limitations regarding bit resolution and sample rate (16-bit/48kHz) are made irrelevant, and high-quality audio streams are fed directly to the DAC, making playback up to 32-bit at 384kHz possible (depending on the DAC capabilities) or even DSD.

    Music Player Daemon (MPD)

    Music Player Daemon (MPD)

    Music Player Daemon

    Music Player Daemon (MPD) is a flexible, powerful, server-side application for playing music. Through plugins and libraries, it can play a variety of sound files while being controlled by its network protocol. An experimental Android build is available on Google Play. After installing and launching it, MPD will scan the music in your music directory and you can control it as usual with an MPD client. Each plugin usually needs a codec library, which you also need to install. Check the plugin reference for details about the required libraries. Even though it does not “feel” like a Windows application, MPD works well under Windows. Its build process follows the “Linux style” and may seem awkward for Windows people (who are not used to compiling their software, anyway). Audio outputs are devices that actually play the audio chunks produced by MPD. You can configure any number of audio output devices, but there must be at least one.
