#42Cog is a dated but pretty good winamp clone that supports mod and s3m like winamp did. Someone should bring that one back to life instead.

#43Sigh this is the same insanity that tesla brought into the car dashboard UI/UX, They removed physical buttons and now everyone is bringing them back. Same applies to music players.

#44What's wrong with foobar2000? Used to be one of the best music players and you could infinitely customize it.
I actually prefer VLC to foobar2000. However, I still prefer classic Winamp to to all other music players, and I wish I could get Apple Music work in the same interface. I like 100% of the classic Winamp player UI/UX. - I like the separate player, playlist, EQ windows. - I like that I can re-arrange the windows, and resize the playlist separately. - I like that the main player has a little EQ built in. - I like the l…

#45Call me crazy but iTunes/Music has always been one of the things I like most about macOS, at least after going through the settings and disabling all the features trying to push you into a subscription. I still manage my own ~500 file mp3 collection instead of paying monthly.
iTunes is still the best I have, mainly because it syncs well with iPhone, but also because it (kind) of just works, and I have a pile of applescripts to beat it when it doesn't.
I still wish it was a bit better at finding lost files, but maybe I'll vibe code something to do that for me someday.
(I'll have an album in the folder it doesn't see anymore, point one song at it, and it can't "find the rest" of the album, but I have to point each one out)

#46but there is Vox.
Have you actually used it? I didn't like it that much, and the subscription model turned me off.

#47I recommend IINA: https://iina.io ( https://github.com/iina/iina )
MPlayerX and IINA are the best free video players for macOS, hands down. Music mode needs more love though.

#48Vibe coded?
Not really, why?

#50DJ mode seems useless for DJ’s and smells like feature creep. KISS, YAGNI.
I personally own a bunch of vinyl records and love to change pitch while listening to get a different feel for the familiar music. DJs used to mix with turntables that have only pitch and phase adjustments, it was very minimal.
