Audacious
An Advanced Audio Player
Audacious is an open source audio player descended from XMMS. It plays music files and internet streams while aiming to leave system resources available for other tasks. Users can drag and drop folders or individual songs, search their music library by artist and album, and create or edit custom playlists. It also supports listening to CDs and streaming audio from the internet.
The player includes a graphical equalizer, audio effects for adjusting dynamic range, and plugin support. Included plugins can fetch lyrics and display a VU meter, among other functions. Audacious offers a modern Qt/GTK themed interface and can also use Winamp Classic skins. It runs on Linux, BSD derivatives, macOS, and Windows. The project is developed by volunteers, and the current release is 4.6.1.
