Conflow Posted July 17, 2006 Report Posted July 17, 2006 NEW AUDIO PLAYERYes,I know that 'Beta-5 Testing' has taken precedence over everything else ~but there is a big wide Worldout there where other things are moving on~ Not the lease of these is a brand new 'Audio Player' from Russia and in my opinion its "one of the best" I have ever used.It has many 'new features' not found in Winamp or nor Windows Player such as a "Live" 10 Band Equalizerwhich works as you play the (origionl) Cd or Music. It also has "Live" Reverb and Echo and 'on-the hoof' CD & Track Extractor and many,many, other features.Most of all its tough and absolutely stable (unlike most) at at 2.5mB size I simply can't figure out how this Russian team done it ?Link & Thumbnails below.Its well worth a try and I can see a use for it in Halls & Auditoriums where the acoustics are bad.Brian.Conflow.http://www.snapfiles.com/get/spiderplayer.html Quote
Ken Cox Posted July 17, 2006 Report Posted July 17, 2006 gee not to kick a gift horse in the mouth but Brian what wmp do you have -- my wmp 10 has a 10 band equalizer plus quite a few other effects in the sound deptand there are still people asking questions about ver 4.__ken Quote
Conflow Posted July 17, 2006 Author Report Posted July 17, 2006 Ken,Well Ken as they say...You will never know till you try it !....I have used them all, here are some facts:-* Win Media Player Audio (cut-down version) size 50.Mb* WinAmp Player (minimum) 30.Mb* QCD Player (one of the best) 36.MbSpider-Player is 2.5 Mb and in my opinion it does a better and faster job than the lot put together,somewhat like the 'PTE Version' of Audio Players and that is saying something.Many Players deny you 'live-access' to their Graphic Equalizer unless you load the Music File into the PC and work on the copy. With 'Spider Player' you can use their Equalizer directly with the CD or any other 'raw' Music Source without loading the File to the PC, thats a massive advantage.If you have ever used 'WinAmp' or 'Win Media Player' on a Laptop/Portable you will find that they don'tperform 'as stable' as they do when used on a Desktop PC ~ indeed when you run a Copy-Cd on aLaptop all types of things start to happen with WinAmp-WMA-QCD Player, exactly when you don't need that hastle.This little 'Spider Player Utility' is ideal for Laptop/Portable's and renditions in Clubs & Halls where you want some control over the Acoustics and it certainly gives an excellent account of itself. By the way, the 'Lame +OGG +WMA Encoders and Mp1,Mp2,Mp3' are included in the package.Brian.Conflow. Quote
Lin Evans Posted July 18, 2006 Report Posted July 18, 2006 It's indeed a very nice player - I'm still trying to get the equalization to work, but other than probably something I'm doing wrong it's a very sophisticated player. The echo and reverb work perfectly and the interface, though a bit confusing to me at first, seems very intuitive once you understand the process for loading and playing selections. You certainly can't beat the price! LOLThanks for the info and link!!Best regards,Lin Quote
