![]() Upon downloading the program, the full functionality is available to you, but you have a month long time limit. If you purchase the license, you will be given a file that you import into the program itself that opens the time lock. Importing the library was smooth, and the program can read an Apple Music offline library from the existing file source. It offers a consolidation feature that allows you to move all music to a single location too, since one can open music from any location. If, for example, you open a music file from the desktop and later move it to a different folder, you will have to direct the program to the file again to play it again. Due to this, one should arrange the storage locations of their files before opening them with the program. There is an option to copy new tracks to the library folder if you want, though, so my experience is just one possible approach to organizing files.Īnother advantage over Apple Music is the ability to read FLAC and DSF files, while Apple Music can only read WAV for lossless. However, Swinsian can not rip CDs, and you will need to have a separate program for that. If you use Apple Music to rip, and want to convert to FLAC for storage purposes, you will need a program like XLD for file conversion. Also, Swinsian can unfortunately not read OGG files. Using the program itself is smooth and customizable. I can’t make much comparison to iTunes, but I can say it is certainly more versatile than Apple Music. I arranged it to have a similar view by showing albums as a series of album art tiles, the list of song titles below, and viewing metadata on the right. Feel free to ask any questions about Vox(I’ve been using Vox for couple month’s now).Navigating a track while it’s playing is a bit stiff. Vox can be downloaded from the App Store for free(but I highly recommend donating). Cheers to Coppertino, the developer of Vox. Certain players, like Vox, could cause a huge improvement in sound quality, depending on how you use them. I was always irritated as some heavy PC-fiers would drop hundreds of dollars for minor improvements(like cables), but would use iTunes or other crappy third party players. What more could you ask for from such an elegant player? 31 band graphic EQ and highly customizable options. How often do you see these kind of features? I don’t even know what 1/3 of the features are. ![]() ![]() These features are accessible through: View-Audio Units.Ĭome on. ![]() Vox Supports AU! Although created by apple, these features are not accessible in iTunes, and these are some serious features. However, there are more serious audiophile features, which is featured in part 4. There’s also a radio feature, if you make a small donation to the makers of Vox. There is also handful of fancy features, such as remote support and even BS2B presets like Chu Moy. Vox will even automatically adjust the output sample rate to match that of the audio file being played. For example, when you are browsing online, you can have the Mac output set to built in speakers and mute it, and have Vox output to your DAC, and only your music will be played through your headphones. This also means that you can just listen to music on a specific output(which is a bit different from using MIDI Setup). Simple EQ, and more importantly, the ability to choose different output source. It supports just about any file you can think of. Vox has some of the best designs I’ve ever seen. So.here are reasons why you should use Vox: Here are reasons why you should use Vox if you have a Mac. This year, Vox had a major update, and the new interface and features are shockingly awesome. I hereby introduce Vox! Vox is a fairly new music player, created around 2012 or 2013. After about 5 years of searching, I think I concluded on a “perfect music player” for Mac. I’ve used Macs for about 5 years now(13in Macbook Pro, 11in Macbook Air, and now a 13in Macbook Air). There certainly are other softwares for music playback, but all of them were heavy and laggy, not to mention the cost and the not so user-friendly UI. I always found this ironic, as iTunes lacks audiophile features that other Windows OS players(ex.foobar2000) had. There are lots of audiophiles using Macs.
