Power Amp Player - Continuum Themes and Apps

Something that I have noticed with the stock music player is that there is very little customization that you can do to get a better sound. In search of better sound quality and more customization I stumbled upon power amp in the play store. I downloaded the 15 day trial to test drive it and instantly fell in love with it. So I purchased the full unlocker for 5$. I would just like to share my findings in case any one in the community uses there phone for music and listens to it a lot. Try it out if you want. The player is very customizable to you. It finds all the album art work, you can edit the tags for the music, change the equalizer, and much more.
Here are some screen shots

[Q] Music Player Questions

Hey guys, I was wondering if there was a music app that allowed you to change the volume control. The phone volume is too low for my taste. Is the EQ in PowerAmp good for this, and is it worth the price?
I've been using the leaked 2.3 music .apk and its fine for daily use, not car use though. Is there a good car music player available as well?

Mixzing Media Player, totally free.
Free lock-screen player widget, EQ STAYS ON, 4x4 widget is beautiful and automatically downloads music art (can turn that off to save energy if you want but it really doesn't use up much resources)

[Q] Any way to keep screen on while music player is playing?

I didn't notice any settings in my newly purchased Infuse that would allow this so I wanted to check, is there an add-on app or setting I'm missed that will allow the screen to stay on while the music player is playing?
this is an option that i don't believe the default player has. there are several media players in the market that have this option. i use PowerAmp, best player in my opinion
Thanks any thoughts on what is considered the most feature rich player?

people seem to like doubletwist because it integrates with itunes i believe. but as far as features, i believe poweramp is head and shoulders above the rest. it autoplays on headphone insertion/bluetooth connection. it has its own lockscreen controls. it crossfades between songs and kills the silence at the beginning and end of tracks, making for a professional dj sounding club mix. the only shortcoming is, it doesn't directly handle m3u files, but this will be fixed in the next release.
Much appreciated.

Rockbox is the most feature rich, not on the market though. You'll have to hunt for the apk.

You can do this using tasker.
I was browsing apps the other day and saw Tasker... it seemed a bit daunting so I didn't look in to it closer... (as an aside I'm probably going to stay with the default music player as I like its integration and swiping capabilities), but it looks like I can use tasker to replicate a feature I did like from poweramp (launch automatically when headset is plugged in), and the keep backlight on... guess I'll give it a whirl.
Thanks again.
edit: Stumbled through setting up the task I wanted related to the music player this morning.
Worked brilliantly. Thanks!

Good music player for Galaxy Note

Hi All,
Apologies if I'm reinventing the wheel here, but I'm looking for a good solid music player app for the Note, as the bundled music hub doesn't cut the mustard with me.
Any ideas? What are you guys using?
Thanks in advance.

Power Amp!! It's amazing how you can hear your old music completely new and improved through your headphones.

Neutron! The GUI is a bit odd but the sound is excellent. Renders the music in 32 bit.

this is the one i have been using for almost 2 years now, its perfect! give it a try...
What about battery usage of the app you post?
The stock music player is very efficient when using FM kernel. While biking for 2 hours and listening a mp3 it loses just 6%.
Is one of those apps have music controls in the pulled down notification menu??
I used to have playerpro but it doesn't have those controls, only stock player has them but then the stock player dosen't have a widget!!
Any ideas would be great

PowerAmp all the way
I use PowerAmp... awesome sound quality!
Have used WinAmp, but sound quality is pretty basic, although it is good otherwise.
PowerAmp doesn't have player controls in the taskbar, but it does have a decent widget. Also, had problems when upgrading to the full version where it corrupted the sd card within Android and had to rebuild it in windows before android would recognise it again. To prevent this found that uninstalling the widget and disabling auto-scan folders before installing the full key helped. No problems since.
Guess the other thing to mention is file transfer. I'm not really fussed on built in file transfer as I just copy and paste my folders to the sd card syncing the phone as an external drive. PowerAmp doesn't have any built in file transfer that I'm aware of, whereas WinAmp has wireless transfer which is supposed to be good.
It's all about music quality for me though and PowerAmp wins by a loong long way in that department.
Happy hunting, hope it helps
Try 3 it has a very cool interface

Ubermusic is quite good I think
Cloudskipper, hands down
Another vote for poweramp. It's not free, but it's far and away the best - in my opinion of course.
Poweramp - i've tried all others, but poweramp is just full of pure awesomeness
Google music player is by far the best player. Stream all your tracks without taking up space on your memorycard

Simple,
Powerapp all the way.
I use my phone alot for music(Who doesn't) and have gone through nearly every music player trying to find the best one.
Tried all the free, Then tried all the paid for ones, The best by far is poweramp, Simply because it handles the music so perfectly and the sound quality is superb.
Trust me when i say, You won't regret buying it, Plus you can try out the free version before hand.
Agree with the PowerAmp people. It's just the best!

Player Pro is the best.
I use PowerAmp on the Note and MediaMonkey on the PC to convert my CDs to FLAC, which PowerAmp can read. So I get lossless CD quality on it.

I have tried them all well not exactly but most the ones people recommend, none the less I had problems with the stock one doing the same thing. Sometimes it would play a song then sometimes it would just be silent, any way I tried the playerpro trial version same as full version just only last 5 days. any way it and dsp pack for it has proved to be the best so far plays anything, and had allot of sound adjustment. No I don't work for them lol just my 2 cents

PowerAmp continues to be my favorite. Though it seems like there's a bug related to scanning each time the app is launched that was causing me some issue. Disabled that option and everythings good.
I use playerpro, like the features, get missing album covers, no issues. The widget is awesome, try it, it is free. The app is well supported.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
I have this exact problem. It isn't quite clipping but whenever there is a crescendo it only ramps up partway and then gets mushy as though there is a normalizer running. The consistency with which it does this has me thinking as though each frame in the MP3 is being decoded at a different level!

Best android music player

Which music player is the best?
I got Winamp and I really see no difference between Stock and Winamp. Stock actually looks nicer in my opinion.
I have been suggested Player Pro, but it's not free.
Any suggestions?
Also a big thing for me is the ALBUM ART. Both Winamp and stock have LOW quality album art. My pictures are HD quality all the same size, yet they have blur and low quality. Very annoying!
Google music is good

PlayerPro or TTPod
Try the PlayerPro trial, it's a very good player.
I also like TTPod which includes lyrics display too.
For lyrics compatible with most players, try MusicXmatch.
AudioTagger is great for ID tagging and album art downloading.
Cubed and cm7 stock float my boat

The best thing about Winamp is that it could replace your lock screen, allowing you to control the music without unlocking, I have tried several and always come back to winamp
+1 for Winamp.
sent from Lord ZED's Autobot
For the lock screen function, +1 to winamp.
I usually just remote desktop and stream from my computer though to access my huge database of music. (Gotta waste that unlimited data plan Somehow!)
Poweramp
Full graphic EQ with presets. Fully customizable plaer engine and Skins. With lockscreens
Poweramp was the best i tried.
EQ, themes, widget + easy to control
And MixZing is good as well but it hasn't got good interface.

Ok so I tried the Poweramp Trial.
It DOES have the high quality album art which matters to me. You can change the size of the album art as well.
The interface is ok, I still think stock music player has the nicest interface. The colours though are the best. the widget matches nice with my background.
The volume on it is higher than stock and equal with Winamp.
So maybe I will buy this one, but try the others first.
The lyrics don't matter to me. Mainly just looks, organization, and album art.

If you are after a plain, and simple music player, i would recommend tiny player. It runs smoothly on my phone. It also consumes less RAM and CPU process..

If you pay WInamp it has Full EQ too, easy to use, u can sync it with your desktop via streaming, Full album art, kinda workig shuffle, I've been using Winamp in my desktop since '98 so I completely trust winamp
Yes maybe the stock one looks better and use less resources, but In custom roms, i dont know why, everytime I pair it with bluetooth with my car, the phone just freezes, so I need to use a different one, so Winamp is my move
My favorite has been Google Music w/Volume+ as my equalizer.
I can't remember if you have to be rooted for Volume+ (it's been a minute since I've played with it), but it's a full featured EQ that you can set the phone speaker and headphone EQs separately. I also have all my music uploaded to Google Music so it takes up no space, works just fine and I get a full featured equalizer.
Pro tip, you can get Volume+ for free if you go to the developer's website (accessible in the Android Market). I bought it though, it really is quite good.
I use Poweramp its verry good cause you cabn choose different style of sound like bass, classic ext. But it paid.
I heard that Neutron Music Player is the best up to now. It supports lossless songs, and sound quality is great if used along with DSP Manager. You can search for reviews on Youtube.
However, that's what I heard. It seems that Neutron MP does not support my Gio. What a shame.
