You can use any advanced DSP manger like noozxoide or viper4android.

So, with viable external solutions available, would you still need this feature request?

We can you use third party tools. They interfere all the audio before it's send to the hardware.
But, most of the OEM DSP (eg: Sound alive, Music FX, etc.) can't be launched directly & will not process audio untill or unless it's called by the app.

Yes, i need it, but low priority of development.

one more request
That would be a very nice addition.
I have lots of media files with different volume levels, mostly short clips that play on repeat. No option to normalize a volume default across the files.
The original request is about a dynamic normalization in the same media for quieter sequences. No big need for me, but nice too.

Disable Audio Ducking

I'm wondering of there is an easy effort that I can do to disable the volume duck that occurs when I receive a notification (while listening to music)
Some ROMs have a setting g for this, but I'm wondering if someone could direct me to the proper file I might edit and turn this feature OFF..
I like my notification sound to just play over the music, or just not bother me..
Thx.

Pretty sure this has to do with what app you're using for playing music, and whether it uses the mediaplayer of your device or it's own custom one.
it's true, I hated the ducking but was able to disable it in PowerAMP settings.

Yeah, PowerAMP uses its own media service.
Is there a music player that has this feature that doesn't cost money? I'll pay for Poweramp if there isn't. VLC for Android, for instance, doesn't have this feature.
Edit: After some trial and error with various programs, I've discovered that MX Player plays back audio without ducking, but a drawback is that it doesn't have dynamic playlist creation capabilities (you need your files ordered in folders). It also plays Opus files, which is something that I was also looking for.
Another app, Rocket Player, will let you choose *between* ducking and pausing (under Settings->Sound->Audio Focus->Temp Focus Action), but it won't let you disable the action completely. That being said, I've found that for audio books and podcasts, I actually prefer pausing to ducking or no ducking, so I like Rocket Player in this respect (same goes with Poweramp).
guys,COS 12+ has this option in their OS. the question is there any xposed modules to do the same action like in COS ?? ( I'm not sure if it's available in CM12+ roms or not ) any idea?
Dirty unicorn have this feature and its working great.

Nice fresh player
Wow, a very different design approach, I love it so far.
Some questions -
1. Does this player have a sound limiter enabled to avoid distortions?
2. Folder view - I like the list but would prefer a file browser method with file Hierarchy method. Similar to file managers.
3. Folder sort options - Ability to sort files in folders by date added - really helps as i add a lot of music randomnly to different folders, and when the folder size increases, this helps a lot.
4. Song/ Album art downloading - is this enabled? would be great if we can get album downloads with manual search and high resolution results.
Will definitely be keeping my eye on this player.
Hi, rmdeathwish.
I'm Jay Lee, the sound designer of PlankTone Music Player.
I used a lot of other techniques to avoid clipping and distortion instead of a limiter.
Because the limiter could cause unclear sound.
Other features you want will be added soon.
Thanks for your feedback.
I hope that you can enjoying your listening with PlankTone!

[APP] Stealth Audio Player - play audio through earpiece

Usually, there are two ways of playing music on Android device. You can either use your headphones or a speaker. But how about a third option?
The purpose of this app is to enable the users to listen to something when they do not have earphones and they don't want to use speakers.
When you are with someone and you must listen to an audio file e.g. a voice message, etc. you can now listen to it using your device's earpiece (from which you hear phone calls) using this app.
This is useful not just for usual audio files, but also for podcasts, and comes in handy for when you forgot to bring headphones and do not want to disturb those around you. Stealth Audio Player enables you to make good use of the tiny speaker to listen things which should not play from the main big speaker.
Download from Play Store:​https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appsbyusman.stealthaudioplayer
FEATURES:​
Plays any kind of Audio from the earpiece of your device.
Plays Videos on screen and their audio is routed through the earpiece.
Folders Browser lets you locate specific files.
Ignore Folders option under Settings makes a Blacklist of folders to ignore.
Basic and functional Audio and Video players.
Dedicated lists for Audio and Video files.
Option to remove ads in Settings screen.
UPDATES:​v17:
THIS IS A MAJOR UPDATE:
*** VIDEO PLAYER ***
Now you can play VIDEO files using this player - the audio will come through the earpiece!
v16:
Introduced a PRO UPGRADE to remove ads
Introduced a Settings screen where you can add some folders to the ignore list.
v14 (Major Update):
Folders support: Now browse any folder on your device to look for and play specific files.
New Navigation Drawer: All the sections of the app in one place.
Partial ***VIDEO*** support: Open a video file from a folder and the app will play its audio (more support will be coming later).
Previous (v13):
All crashing issues fixed!
Performance improvements.
Player becomes untouchable when the phone is near the ear (to avoid accidental touches).
WhatsApp audio messages will not appear in this app.
"Unable to read file" issue fixed.
Excellent concept.
this app is very helpful when i want to listen something without disturbing others and my earphones are out of my reach.
Thanks man! I really appreciate your feedback
Please support more audio code, it support only mp3, i use m4a itunes
Ok I'll see if it works. Currently it supports mp3, ogg, and wav files.
Just published an update to this app. Here's the summary:

Just what i thought to ask you as I made a jump here again. Now that's everything i could desire. Thanks again
I'm glad that you like it
A couple of ideas that i could suggest to you to make this lil' app just perfect in every aspect, is first - adding an option to search music; second - add a side slider to reach alphabetically a certain letter.
I'd like to premise that these ideas could be useful just in my opinion, where i don't wanna use this as daily player obviously, but with more than 50 songs the research become huge and hard... What do you think?
A+ for the idea Nice, light-weight application. May it be useful to create the sticky notification with the control buttons and the name of the track? It will be shown when the app is running, and the song is playing. Several times, I have minimized the application instead of closing it or at least stopping the playback, put the phone in the pocket, and the music continued playing

There is already an option to search music. You can search by Title, Artist, or file name.
About the slider: That would be very useful. I also want to implement it, and I will probably bring an update about it but right now I am working on making the app crash free for all devices.

The nature of this app is that we only hear the audio while the device is attached to the ear. In this position I don't think there is a need to bring features of full fledged music players. The users will stop hearing anything as soon as they are able to interact with their devices so there will be no use of bringing the notification controls.
This app is not a music player, it's more of a utility for hearing the audio in a different way.
However, I do have plans to better manage the minimizing of the application. This will be addressed in near updates.

You're right, didn't noticed the lens icon in the upper right space. Maybe because i didn't reboot the phone after the last update..? Anyway I've seen that the list of available mp3s have to be reloaded by filename every time that the app is launched. You think that a preload of the list like a normal music player could ever be made someday?
Thanks to you for the creation of this app.
I have been trying to preload the data with different approaches. But it's getting a little tricky. I am gonna try something new tomorrow, which will hopefully make it A LOT more stable, and I am positive that the files will show up faster and with more stability than all previous version.
An update was also published today (evening) which addressed several crashing errors which the complainants are reporting to have been rectified now.

Adapt sound and different headsets

I have tweaked adapt sound for the 3 Bluetooth headsets I use namely Beats Studio, Livall Bluetooth Helmet and Sabbat in ear buds. I'd like to be able to automatically shift to the corresponding adapt sound profile when the particular headset connects via Bluetooth. Is there a way to do this?
Poweramp will let you set as many equalizer profiles as you want. Great app, complex to set up, but nothing comes comes to it for a music player.

I'm not particularly interested in changing players. I just want an automated switch. For example when I connect my Beats headphones to the Note 20 Ultra through BT, I want the adapt sound profile to switch to the Beats tweaked one automatically.

Unless there's a plugin don't think you can support individual EQ settings per device other then turn it on or off with Poweramp.
I may be wrong, Poweramp is the Swiss army knife of players... lots of features.
Unfortunately I didn't find any way.
With Routines only equaliser and dolby atmos are available.
Maybe with a Bixby command, that you can trigger with Routine when a specific Bluetooth device is connected, but I didn't set it at all yet to see if it's possible.

If you have a large digital collection it's the one to use. Otherwise not.
You aren't supposed to use "adapt sound" for various headsets. It is not an equalizer.
Adapt sound is for your HEARING LOSS in various frequencies. You set it once and it applies to everything. You can use their "generic" age ranges or you can go through their hearing test to customize it specifically for you.
The point of it is to identify the ranges of hearing that you have lost over the years and amplify just that range for your hearing only. (Using any headphones or speakers)
The older you get, the more important this is.
This isn't designed to compensate for crappy headphones.

Question USB DAC problem

Hi!
Today I have been tested two version of external type-c USB DACs: first noname from Ali with dac chip, and second one of popular MIEZU DAC.
Sound is very quiet, terrible quality on both DACs.
I test it on PC (LENOVO LEGION), on Samsung M52, HONOR V20 - both DACs work fine.
Miezu has super clear sound and easy work with 250 Ohm headphones.
But with 12x... Sound super terrible...
Maybe some one knows what about it?
Did you tried to disable dolby atmos?

Yes, I tried all possible settings, what I found in menu (developers menu too).
Only one things little help me increase sound level - custom sound level (where you can chose your age, you can add a custom parameters).
If you are using an external dac leave all the parameters disabled. Then use the dac to apply any eq settings.
Check that both the phone and the player have all eq flat, no sound effects activated.
I'm using the xiaomi with a qudelix 5k and works flawlessly.

Just raise the gain, not the frequency sliders.
What player are you using? Try poweramp or usb audio player pro. If you are using a stream platform check that audio normalization is disabled. Plus the quality is set to very high.
Xiaomi SM???? devices have large jitter caused by mi_thermald and enforced DRC (Dynamic Range Control or compression). If your device is rooted, try my magisk tools (audio-misc-settings and USB_SampleRate_Changer (including jitter-reducer.sh)) to reduce the jitter, to disable DRC, and also to make no resampling distortion.

I usually use foobar2000, PlayerPro or systemplayer...
But, I just try PowerAmp - WOW! Now the DAC work fine, like on my another devices. I don't understand what poweramp do, why another players cannot work fine, Xiaomi system player to.
Do you know any free players like PowerAmp? (GooglePlay doesn't work correctly in my country).
One good news - phone can work fine with external DAC, but second bad news - have to use special APP (like PowerAmp) and I can't use any streaming player, such spotify.
P.S. What Xiaomi do with hardware or software? Maybe you should write to the manufacturer? ))

Neutron player work fine too.
Need to use Direct USB access in APP settings.
You can try neutron too, very good app one of the best imho. A bit more difficult to use, but offers a ton of customization options.
Those don't play audio if you plug a external dac, they simply send the signal so the external dac processes it. Maybe your apps play that songs and the dac simply amplifies it, rather than decoding it and amplifying it.
