It’s great to see a modern take on the classic audio player focused on local libraries rather than just streaming. I also appreciate the transparent one-time purchase model in an era where subscription fatigue is so common among desktop tools. This looks like a solid, focused utility for power users who still value fine-grained control over their playback.

Thank you for the kind words!

Looks very similar to IINA in design (to be clear I like IINA), so I’ll check it out!

There are some similarities for sure! I also like IINA and have used it extensively in the past. The main additions are the flexible layout, waveform view, shader background, better performance and smaller app size, pitch and effects and bunch of other small things. So even though they can look similar (both have album cover and playlist), the experience is hopefully quite different.
