Works really well! the ui interface is way better then before

Hey I tried this app and really nice ... only problem is with album art in library mode..It do not take album art assigned from SD card in library mode.

This beta has been released for public more than 2 weeks ago. Very nice one.

Yeah, I was very surprised that it hadn't broken in the Android news circles well before it did.

Thanks for sharing! This caused me to buy PowerAmp. The widget is really nice!

I wonder if the people that bought the original will get the new improved version for free

Of course, when you install this beta it recognises your paid license.

Can beta be installed together with 1.x version or is this an upgrade?
M. Speksnijder

It's an upgrade and will replace your existing PowerAMP installation.

Hands, down, the BEST player I have ever used! I've lost any interest in other apps and equalizers - I can't believe I've just come across this

I've been with PowerAMP for quite a while, but even so I was aware of it for quite come time before I tried it - totally kicked myself when I did get round to it! Installed the trial and listened to a couple of tracks, immediately went to the Market and purchased it.

Thanks for this...better design than before. Equalizer in more enhanced with a couple of new features such as limit, mono, and stereo x. Also have added a 7dB Equalizer Band in Advanced Tweaks - PowerAMP keeps getting better!

I love power amp, only real issue i am having with this beta tho is the equaliser refuses to stay set on whatever i set it as. Even if i turn the equaliser off, when the next track starts the it turns on again and reverts to preset 1!
Only seems to happen with earphones plugged in!

So far, the beta seems much friendlier...
EDIT: Except for the folder selection, it loads, then again and again

Yep, there are definitely a few bugs that need sorting.
I was having issues with custom EQs, but for whatever reason they seem to have sorted themselves now... EQ seems to be consistently reported problem though.
I don't use folders, so hadn't come across that problem - thanks for letting us know (hope you've fed back to the dev!).

I downloaded it, i tried it and i approved it very quickly.

I'm surprised whenever I read someone is still using Beats to listen to their music. And then I just kinda laugh.

I have both beats and Poweramp....Poweramp puts beats to shame. The only issues I've seen is that it forgets album art on some songs and goes back to a generic album art. Also if I clik on menu, more then settings app crashes? Any one else?

[FIX] DSPManager in Sense 3.5 Roms

As more developers are now releasing Sense 3.5 roms I thought it best to share some issues I had with DSPManager on these roms and what I did to get it working properly.
1. If DSPManager gets quiet when ticking the checkbox for "bass boost" or get really loud and tingy when selecting "virtual room" this is an indication that the application library or "lib" isn't functioning properly to produce the correct output.
2. If DSPManager does not seem to affect audio in any way when selecting it's various enhancements this, obviously, is also a sign of the app not functioning properly.
I'm an audio enthusiast so DSPManager working on my rom was a must. My attempts to "fix" DSPManager were great and over a long period of time. Some devs out there have supposed "fixes" for it and some devs don't really care about the app because they don't use it. My method will limit your ability to use enhancements from with HTC music player so if you're not willing to lose that ability in exchange for DSPManager working instead do not try this method. The various libraries "libs" in the system/lib/soundfx folder seem to conflict with DSPManager so what you need to do is delete each one of these.
The libs will be some or all of the following:
libbeats.so
libbundlewrapper.so
libreverbwrapper.so
libsrsfx.so
libvisualizer.so
The DSPManager lib that you DO NEED TO KEEP there is libcyanogen-dsp.so
You need to use root explorer or any other file explorer capable of root access to browse to system/lib/sounfx. Once you've deleted the conflicting libs you need to reboot the phone. Once the phone restarts you need to adjust the audio settings in DSPManager after you've begun playing music to notice the change. Attempting to select enhancements from within HTC music player from this point on will either give a message of "Enhancements not available" or a Force close dialog although the music will not stop playing you will simply be returned to your home screen. At this point you can now use DSPManager for each output currently in use whether it be phone speaker, headphone or bluetooth. Remember some roms will have a higher bass output just by themselves without using DSPManager so be sure if the bass seems super loud on low settings after installing to set your equalizer lower than normal for bass so as not to damage any equipment you may have attached to it.
For those of you running a sense 3.5 rom without the DSPManager lib "libcyanogen-dsp.so" I will attach it in this thread and you can follow the steps outlined. You need to unzip the .SO file from the .ZIP and place into system/lib/soundfx and set permissions to rw-r--r--

Cool! I rather have dsp manager than beats anyway. Thanks

I guess you never checked my rom
you can use all htc music equalizer options and on top of that sound output from equalizer can be deeper adjusted with dsp.
Im picky about sounds."Sound forge" came out 18 days ago

Aye, DSP manager and HD video are the reason I use your ROM as my daily ...and yeah, DSP Manager sh*ts all over Beats for me (though I'm using beats earphone), a must have tweak for my Evo.
Thanks for this thread. Bookmarked in case I flash a different 3.5 rom

ok ok
the fix is to move dsp lib from soundfx folder to lib folder.
thats it.Simple as 1,2,3
Just do not enable beats effect.It doesnt work properly anyway

That's seems legit of course I never would've thought to try to move the lib. I did notice your rom had a fix for it. At one point I had HTC equalizer and DSP working but thats kind of overload to me. Maybe I'll try it out though.

nice work..

I tested your suggestion to no avail. Your method may work in your rom but not necessarily in others.

Thank you sir

Hello xlxcrossing! I've just come across your thread and I must say I find it very interesting. I first used DSP Manager in Cyanogenmod 7.1 and as it turns out, Bass Boost would get quiet and Virtual Room would get really loud (and awesome, according to my taste), like you point in Case 1.
I'm currently using Cyanogenmod 7.2 RC1 and it is a completely different experience. I think DSP is working "right", according to what you say in the OP. However, I think I liked it better when the Virtual Room setting would completely change the sound. Do you know what libs I should change in order to achieve the effect you point out in Case 1?
Thanks in advance!

If you want the virtual room setting to sound hollow and tingy then don't change any libs just leave things as they are. Install whatever rom you want and DSPManager and you're good to go. If you are using headphones as appose to a bluetooth car stereo as I do then you will probably not notice the sound as being distorted as much. Hope that answered your question.

Fantastic, I only wish I saw this thread sooner. I pretty much stick with MikG because the dsp works so well on it. This opens up my options for a daily driver.

Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate it.
I don't really wish to change ROMs right now... I'm very happy with Cyanogenmod 7.2. Also, I made a mistake explaining myself. I was using a Sense 3.5 ROM (not CM7.1) when I came across your Case 1. Do you know which libs I should change in CM7.2 in order to make it sound like the time I had Sense 3.5 installed? I've tried changing the libs myself, but so far CM7.2 won't boot whenever I put the Sense 3.5 libs in /system/lib. Hope you can clear this mess up for me because I'm very confused .
Best regards.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I'm not changing the entire /system/lib folder. I'm just changing:
libaudio.so
libaudioeffect_jni.so
libaudioflinger.so
libaudiopolicy.so

The process I outlined is for Sense 3.5 roms only...although it may work in other Sense roms as well but I have not tested. Cyanogen is an AOSP rom meaning stock android only. Those libs you listed in your edit are not present in the file system folder I specified and wouldn't be tampered with for this particular process. You should be able to find a thread on CM w/DSP.

[MOD] Acid Audio Engine

Link to Team Ac!d op: Here
This is an audio enhancement mod that offers several different options and combinations.
From the OP:
● Sony Clearaudio Plus system (an amazing technolgy to enhance clarity of Bass and provide several effect like Clearphase, Clearbass, SRS surround,...)
● Beats Audio Engine (we ported latest beats engine from HTC one XL, and modded it a lot to be great handled by Clearaudio, it improve greatly Bass power and overal surround effect)
● Cyanogen DSP features (it helped a lot to handle better in app Equaliser)
● Dolby Digital Sound (overall better audio clarity with way more natural sound and some awesome features like SRS Wow and Dynamic Bass range)
● Sony Xloud (enhance noticably speaker quality in terms of clarity and volume, it help to ensure there is no distorion in sound even in headset, better balanced treeble and crystal voice)
● Eizo Rewire PRO series (an awesome Audio tool wich brings lots of effect and claim to offer a better balanced and natural Sound)
● AC!D Audio Parts (Huge optimisation in overall sound quality due to some optimisation, some tweaks, some audio rendering and resampling and even more... some Huge work have been done already)
I have tested it on the Infuse running MIUI 3.1.11 which is based off of Scott's 4.1.2 build Nov. 04, 2012.
It should work on any ICS/JB build you are running on your Infuse.
I downloaded option 1, Aroma.
My choices were: what phone?= universal, build prop.= Samsung, Walkman= skip, option= Noozide.
These settings work fine- you are free to choose any setup you prefer.
Remember to wipe cache and dalvik and follow setup instructions in the OP.
Just wanted to share this really nice mod - enjoy !!
Credit: Team Ac!d and thanks to lennyssoto for the heads-up.

Thanks. I always like trying these mods out - audiophile that I am - but I always come back to Voodoo. Let's see if this one can sway me!

Nice find Pony! Another audiophile reporting in
I went with the universal acid mod + walkman on my LiquidSmooth.
I'm quite amazed I must say! Really clear sounds, and bass feels just right

Another audiophile here...ill try this out later with my ath-m50s
Thanks for sharing pony!

Actually sounds like a noticeable difference. Tried it out with some Bose over the ear headphones and it sounded great.

thaNX FOR Sharing...

This one looks very interesting.
I am running Beanstalk? From scott.
I read the OP, it said I have to uninstall any other third party equalizers. This ROM comes with DSP manager. How do I uninstall it?
And is that it for me to use this awesome engine? Just uninstall DSP manger and install this?(maybe acid +walkman)
I'd love to follow if somebody makes clear instruction for this awesome engine for CM10.1 or beanstalk.

zpzp96,
None of my devices currently have DSP Manager. You should be able to uninstall by going to 'manage apps', find it and uninstall. If that does not work, you can freeze / remove it with a file manager (Root Explorer, etc.)
You should then be able to download and install Acid, make your choices during the install process and reboot when complete. It is important that you wipe cache and dalvik first.

Running beanstalk here, but I'm unable to start the Walkman app. I did clear both caches, and selected Samsung, Samsung, acid audio, and yes on all other questions (can't remember all the options). When I try to start the app, just a blank screen and then I get a message that devices are not responding. Any thoughts?

Had same issue I had to reflash my back up I made before I installed the mod then don't pick walkman next go round I followed ponys lead as far as my selections went I also removed DSP before starting
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda app-developers app

Drat. I was afraid of that. Well, since Scott said that another update will be sent out within next day or two, I'll wait until the next update for BeanStalk and then try it with those options.
Is it possible to get the Walkman App working with our device?

Their OP says Walkman may not work with all devices. I am going to do a few diffeent install processes as I have time and see what I come up with. Will post results.

Thnx pony im ur follower

After trying this on multiple roms on our Infuse I have found this mod to work pretty much as the OP states- works quite well.
It comes down to what your personal preference is. As Andros11 stated the Walkman player(automatically adds acid music) is a very good choice. Just remember as you are in aroma, if you want Walkman then choose it and do not add anything from the next screen.
The other choice is to skip Walkman install and choose from the menu on the next page. Of the available choices I prefer the Noozide, again try them and decide for yourself.
Two most important things are disable / delete any music player you have that has eq options and second wipe cache and dalvik. I did have to do 1 additional reboot on a couple of the roms I tried - YMMV. My two cents- this mod is a keeper, and it performs well on my 3 phones.

Whata great find Pony
Just wondering, but if I'm looking for bass as opposed to vocals, whats my best bet? I listen to mostly electronic music like dubstep and house.
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium

vkumar2695,
I have not had a chance to go through as many of the settings as I would like - I hope this helps.
Using the Noozide option, I have found several ways to customize settings based on your individual preferences as well as how you are listening - phone, headphones, external speaker.
When you install Noozide you will get 3 new icons:
1. Acid Sound Mod- a couple of basic settings- no biggie.
2. Noozxoide EIZO- many choices here, see thumbs 1 and 2 (left to right)
3. noozy- the player- a few sound adjustments here for sound at the menu bottom, see thumb 3.
Number 2 is where you will want to spend the most time customizing, it is amazing (to me) that there are so many different combinations and choices.
I hope that once you find the one that best suits your musical taste you will come back and share it here.

I tried to install it, I failed...
I am running beanstalk, I could uninstall DSP manager but the sony walkman failed. The acid engine installed but didn't do anything. And if I go to setting sound effect, there was something but not acid.
I played music with apolo... it was not good at at all.
Now I'm going to stick with DSP Manager+ pack+ playerPro. Best for me. Both quality and gap less and no lag whatsoever

If you haven't already, you need to either flash your rom again or manually remove and change out system files the AAE added or modified. I went through the laborious task of manually putting this back to the way they were! I suspect the reason this didn't work for you was because the flash didn't change your build.prop. It didn't for me (also running Beanstalk).
Still, while I love trying this stuff out, nothing is as good as Voodoo Sound on our device. Some phones have crap DACs so they need all this additional processing. Our phone has a pretty good DAC, so you are going to get the best sound by getting as much out of the way of the music as possible.
Thanks again for bringing this new mod to our attention, Pony!

Hi everybody i m currently running slim ROM beta 2 going to update to rc1 in a couple of days so now I m trying to set to the best this mod in order to flash it on the new ROM. I always used Awesome Beats as a system app and playing Apollo I can clearly hear the difference. Now I want to flash this one cause I think it s better. Did anyone flash it and works? If so which way u flash it? I tried with nozzle but I didn't hear any difference and also the settings were too difficult. Can anyone help me please? Thanks for your support XDA the best!

FLASHMINATOR,
Maybe just try the Walkman- the settings are pretty straightforward and it works well.

KingBeatZ Audio
FAQ - README FIRST!
What is KingBeatZ?
It was formally known as PacKing BeatZ which was based on PACman rom.
What is KingBeatZ Audio?
Audio files and APPS compiled by me directly from my rom minus a few prebuilt from leak Sense JB.
In short, it's made to work. No bs.
What's the difference between this and the other KingBeatZ?
This is fully built from sauce with PACman as its base but with many modifications. Basically it supersedes it.
Like what ​
Linaro toolchain 4.6.3 and and 4.7.1
Custom made audio base
Optimization from the base up O3 mod
Modified DSPManager aka BeaTz Manager
OK I GOT IT...But Why use your ROM you're just a kanger or so they say
LOL check out my credit page. I don't kang. I just simply do so much to keep track of it all. Don't believe me? OK, I don't care. I made this mod for people who truly enjoy a real audio experience. Go join the other white knights.
Go make your own rom!​
Join the club. There's a line though. While waiting please refer to the answer above - thanks again. It might take you a long time to comprehend it. No worries you'll get there in no time.
Where is the dmn source - Under Heavy Development - Why?
I'm doing this by myself so I'm figuring out how to completely setup the repo so people can build this for other devices - hopefully....
Btw if you took this seriously or was offended, well I don't know what to say minus take a deep breath and relax .​
Quick Guide
LPA aka low power audio reduces the audio quality for power consumption.
For some phones, inserting that line might cause issue. Like I said, this is experimental. It haven't been tested that many times.
For the phones that I have tested it on S3, N7, HOXL, and SR it works perfectly fine. (I'm not talking about the line "lpa.decode=false.")
For now here are the results
Verizon CDMA Nexus
DO NOT ADD "lpa.decode=false"
Add "af.resampler.quality=34"
Nexus 7
Added "lpa.decode=false" and "af.resampler.quality=34"
S2SR - Stock JB Leak/AOSP
Change "lpa.decode=true" to "lpa.decode=false"
Added "af.resampler.quality=34"
S3
Change "lpa.decode=true" to "lpa.decode=false"
Added "af.resampler.quality=34"
Media Players
Due to the nature of BeatZ, this will not work on certain players
However, it will work on the following
Apollo
Google Music
Spotify
Rocket Player
(Highly recommend if the above is not preferred)​
Instructions​
How do I get this to work you say?
DONT HAVE ANY OTHER AUDIO MODS!!!
LOOK INTO YOUR BUILD.PROP AND FIND THE LINE "lpa.decode=true" change it to "lpa.decode=false"
ADD THIS LINE 'af.resampler.quality=34" if it has 255 change that ****.
Why? I'll tell you why... It doesn't work. It might say forcing blah blah to 255 but in reality doesn't do ****.
Now after you have done the following.
Download if you haven't downloaded already the mod.
Reboot to recovery wipe cache and dalvik
Flash mod
Wipe Cache and dalvik
Reboot and enjoy
NOTE! YOU MUST DELETE DSPMANAGER BEFORE FLASHING!

Audio Tips
Have fun with them, BUT DO NOT HAVE VOLUME at MAX if it's your first time with this mod.
Be very careful with compression - it can be your best friend or worst enemy
Virtualizer is quite useless
For equalizer - I use Unique

What is SoX?
Home page - http://sox.sourceforge.net/Docs/FAQ
SoX is a command line utility that can convert various formats of computer audio files in to other formats. For example, it can convert a Microsoft WAV file into an Apple AIFF file. It can also apply various effects to these sound files during the conversion. As an added bonus, SoX can play and record audio files on many common platforms. For software developers, SoX functionality is also available as a library—see below.

Is there a GUI available for SoX?
There have been some GUI front-ends created for SoX in the past, but I'm afraid none has been kept up-to-date. However, see Scripts for batch processing, and Links for links to some GUI-based audio processors.
However, for resampling only, there is now a SoX resampler plug-in available for the MS-Windows 'Foobar' audio tool. Questions regarding this plug-in should be raised here

What is LAME?
Home Page - http://lame.sourceforge.net/
LAME is a high quality MPEG Audio Layer III (MP3) encoder licensed under the LGPL.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Following the great history of GNU naming, LAME originally stood for LAME Ain't an Mp3 Encoder. LAME started life as a GPL'd patch against the dist10 ISO demonstration source, and thus was incapable of producing an mp3 stream or even being compiled by itself. But in May 2000, the last remnants of the ISO source code were replaced, and now LAME is the source code for a fully LGPL'd MP3 encoder, with speed and quality to rival and often surpass all commercial competitors.
LAME is an educational tool to be used for learning about MP3 encoding. The goal of the LAME project is to use the open source model to improve the psycho acoustics, noise shaping and speed of MP3. LAME is not for everyone - it is distributed as source code only and requires the ability to use a C compiler. However, many popular ripping and encoding programs include the LAME encoding engine, see: Software which uses LAME.
Using the LAME encoding engine (or other mp3 encoding technology) in your software may require a patent license in some countries.

Many improvements in quality in speed over ISO reference software. See history.
MPEG1,2 and 2.5 layer III encoding.
CBR (constant bitrate) and two types of variable bitrate, VBR and ABR.
Encoding engine can be compiled as a shared library (Linux/UNIX), DLL , Directshow filter or ACM codec (Windows).
Free format encoding and decoding.
GPSYCHO: a GPL'd psycho acoustic and noise shaping model.
Powerful and easy to use presets.
Quality better than all other encoders at most bitrates.
Fast! Encodes faster than real time on a PII 266 at highest quality mode.

What is Secret Rabbit Code?
Home Page - http://www.mega-nerd.com/SRC/index.html
Secret Rabbit Code (aka libsamplerate) is a Sample Rate Converter for audio. One example of where such a thing would be useful is converting audio from the CD sample rate of 44.1kHz to the 48kHz sample rate used by DAT players.

Honestly, it "might" be OK but I highly advise not to mix this with any audio mod especially acid. I cannot guarantee and I will not help troubleshoot due to the millions of possibilities that could occur. Plus think about it this way. As much work as I put into it, a simple clean install of your current ROM isn't hard especially if it's cm. Refusing is like taking a sht into my work saying it's not worth it. This isn't just for you but for all users. It sht on the dev effort. Most of xda doesn't know how much each dev put into their ROM/mod.
The reason why this is just posted now because I refuse to help the hoxl because I know how they treat me. I don't give twosht but I figured I will be nice and let bye gone be bye gone. Base on the result of this thread, I will determine if I'll ever release anything more in the hoxl section
That being said, I hope you enjoy it.

I hear ya but be patient. I'm sure there are a lot of folks running ROMs with audio mods already in them. For instance, I'm running Viper 3.1 and I'm not sure exactly what I would need to remove, if anything, in order to install this mod. I definitely want to try it though. Any suggestions? Wondering how it worked for rpomponio?

Just rewiped and reflashed ViperXL 3.1 and Elemental 1.5 to get that super clean feeling. As soon as I'm done with all my setup I'm installing this MOD and checking it out FOR SURE! I'll post when I can give you some feedback.
EDIT: Installing right now
EDIT 2: How do I verify that the install worked? I'm listening to music right now and it seems to be better/clearer than on ViperXL w/o the MOD but in the notifications when I'm listening to music all I see is the option to turn Beats on or off... should there be more options or is everything working in the background?
EDIT 3: Just found the "BeatZ" app in my app drawer. Any recommended settings? Should I turn the stock Beats off?

Wait what? The mod is persistent. Beatz is just there for some people who like to mess with their settings.

[APP]CM Apps on your stock ROM!!!

Ok so I ran across this yesterday and noticed no one has posted on it so I thought I would let you guys know.
On the play store there is an app that will let you freely install the cm versions of a bunch of apps provided you have access to root.
To make this work on the moto x you have to have pwnmymoto installed and working on your device, also you must be booted
into recovery mode so that you can make the changes to the system/app/ folder actually stick.
The way the app works is it downloads the .apk to your device and then it installs it separately in two different commands.
The installation is kind of finicky i had to hit the install .apk button twice before it would actually install. Give it a try your results may differ.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
APP Info Pulled from Play Store
** Please read this before you install! **
There are a lot of ROM's out there, some CyanogenMod-based and some not. The CyanogenMod team go much further than ROM functions, they develop apps with increased functionality over stock or older versions.
This application is designed to install these CyanogenMod apps as system apps, regardless of your ROM. Please note this is a root-only app!
The process is designed to be as simple as possible; select your app, hit download, hit install, and reboot your device when you're done. The system will refresh them upon reboot, and the app should be installed
Currently supported:
- Apollo music player
- CM Messaging
- CM Torch
- CM File Manager
- DSP Manager
- CM Calculator
- Voice +

**I take no responsibility for the creation of this app, it is just something I came across when looking
for thing to do to my device if you have any complaints or issues regarding the app itself please contact the creator through the play store
please don't take your frustrations out on me. Thanks**​

Good find. It works.

I'm having all kinds of issues with any equalizer, they work for a period of time and stop completely, AFAIK DSP equalizer has issues with jb 4.2, I was using awesome beats, which is a modified version of DSP and after 4 o4 5 songs it stopped working. So I bit the bullet and purchased player pro, it by passes stock sound configurations .

I've got DSP kind of working...Each time i start a song I have to re-open the app, or if i go to it under the equalizer settings in GPM. Ive only been using GPM and i know that DSP has some weird issues with streaming, but DSP is working, its just annoying that I have to "re-enable" it after each song. I dont have any music on my storage, so i havent tried with any other app, maybe its just the streaming...

Okay I guess you could say it kind of works. It sounds nothing like the real DSP manager though, hopefully he'll fix this soon.

Has anyone gotten Voice+ to work? I cannot. Whenever I try manually launching the .APK it says "There was a problem parsing the package." Torch works, though the frequency of the strobe function is completely erratic. Messaging would force close every time I opened it so I downloaded the one from the thread stated earlier. Haven't tried any of the others though.

My understanding of voice plus requires dependent files that are built into cm. I could definitely be wrong however I suspect that I'm not.
