Music player that can play a lot of different file formats from the good old days on the Amiga and PC.

Overview

Modules are relatively small files which contains various sound samples and information on how they should be played. This way of making music goes a long way back, and even at the time of the Commodore 64 the concept was used. But it was on the Amiga computer it really started off. The original type of modules were made with a program called SoundTracker, but since then a lot of different module types have shown up, all of them offering different features - such as more sound channels, more samples, realtime echo and so on. NostalgicPlayer is a program that can play these modules. NostalgicPlayer is a Windows version of the APlayer, but written in 100% C#. APlayer was started on the Amiga computer back in 1993, later continued on BeOS, and was a reaction to the lack of good module players for the Amiga. Please enjoy this program, and support the development by giving any feedback (bug reports and flattering comments :-))

What's new

Highlights in this version: - Updated to .NET 9. - In the IFF-SMUS player, when trying to reuse sample data when two instruments used the same sample, the whole instrument was reused instead of only the sample data. This could make some songs to be played wrongly. Thanks to Kenshigros for reporting this. - When a module is paused and you change position, now the module info window is updated immediately. - Changed the Ogg Vorbis player to use LibVorbis instead of NVorbis. The reason for this change, is because NVorbis have some issues with seeking and it seems not to be fixed anytime soon, if at all. - Changed the OggMod and MO3 players to use LibVorbis instead of NVorbis. - Now the Impulse Tracker loader will show a message box, if the module uses any DSP effects/VST-plugins. - Added a new option so it is possible to show the full path to a module in the playlist as tooltip. - Updated libFLAC to version 1.5.0, which now support multithreading when encoding. NostalgicPlayer uses 4 threads, which improves the encoding speed a lot. - Updated Mpg123 to version 1.32.10. - Updated LibSidPlayFp to version 2.12.0. - Updated LibXmp to version 4.6.2. - Added these new module formats: Synthesis, InStereo! 1.0, InStereo! 2.0, Sonic Arranger, Sonic Arranger (Final), Digital Sound Studio, Ben Daglish, Music Assembler, PumaTracker, Face The Music and Ron Klaren.
