Using sense with beats plugin (srs enhancement and all that extra options)
Idk but with the roms that include beats plugin, i can't seem to get good quality on poweramp...even when beats is disabled..quality seems to be lowered somehow.
Can someone suggest me a good music player?
When I'm not using sense I use Google Play Music with MusicFX from the market

musicfx doesn't seem to appear in stock music player...maybe because of beats plugin already there.

If you're using ICS it should be in Settings > Sound > Sound > Sound Effects
It's not available for Sense 4, just use Google Play Music and press menu > Sound Effects whilst playing a song
Take a look at PlayerPro. It's a good player with iTunes sync.

Then you're not using the proper headphones...trust me i use in-ear original Beats headphones & Sony MDR EX57 Premium with Beats Audio ROM (stock music player) and i must say it sounds very good
I used Winamp Pro with some eq presets (what can i say...quite nice) and Player Pro with more bass and increased volume (that was a bit irritating for the ear, but at least it was louder)...after that i flashed a custom ROM with Beats plugin...uninstalled the above mentioned apps
My advice is for you try Winamp and Player Pro or try some other headphones

These earphones are worth ~ 80 bucks so i guess they're not that bad but i'll give winamp pro a try...
Just a question from people using sense rom with beats plugin...do you guys get a difference in sound quality when not on a rom with beats plugin because i found out that beats plugin ruin other audio players (though the plugin is disabled in other music players)...
one word POWERAMP
:-D
I use the n7 player from the markede its running smooth
i really like the look of zplayer. its in the metro style from windows phones, and its super slick!
or you should try the cm9 music app
I use Poweramp, the effects selection is the best I've found from any music player. Although it may not look the best, in my opinion it offers the best sound quality and customisation.
hi, i love music and i want to know what a can do with my phone to get a maximum from it, i have allready beats, xloud and dps, im using AKG K328 earphones, what more can i do ?
Get Neutron music player.
Tapatalked.
Get equalizer from market
It's same as dsp manager
Unlike dsp manager it support s many music player s
*it can interfere with dsp manager as it uses same lib. :thumbup:
poweramp for sure...its a trial but you could buy the full version one.
Install volume+
Increases ur volume more than maximum. Its a paid app, but google is our friend! ;p
P.s. playerpro's bass conflicts with volume+. Songs will lag when u turn off d screen so turn off playerpro's bass. Since u wont gt any bass effects frm ur phones speaker so use volume+ only for speakers and not fr earphones etc.
Use a downgraded version of volume+ cz d latest 1 is kinda complicated.
Y u no press "thanks"??!!

try this, works perfectly with stock music players as well as paid players that support it. It acts as an equalizer
just install and go to the settings on stock music player and choose it

Silvane : will try
Millan.SIS : instaled some time ago, nothing for me

Hi all, im listen allot to FLAC music, and as you know the built in music app doest support this format, so i downloaded poweramp from google play and the sound was bad, so i search in the app how to improve the sound and i found an option to enable the beats audio,
Open the app, go to settings>audio engine>advanced tweaks> and unselect "direct volume control" and listen again
P.s sorry about my poor english, i really hope you all understand me.

The built in music app in fact does support FLAC since android 4.0
Why would you use Beats if you're a music enthousiast listening to FLACs?
You found the comprehensive eq in PowerAmp I take it? Always been able to get a decent sound tuned to the headphones I'm using. Beats is just a bass boost from the eighties.
Make sure you don't have the eq AND the tone controls (bass and treble) enabled, else they'll conflict. Chose one or other.

Not sure about the OP, but on my device, Beats and PowerAmp, work right out of the box. The actual setting is only visible when you have a pair of headphones plugged in, then go to Sounds --> Sound Enhancer to select Beats

WOrks samee for me here, too. Can I ask fellow PowerAmp users whether they have sudden dips and peaks in volume when browsing the phone and opening apps? Could you tell me if any advance tweaks you have, buffer size etc?
Thanks
The beats logo is showed from the box, but the sound isn't

Thank you so much for find this and share with us. I loved Beats with the urBeats but now I can have both and PowerAmp with Beats. What a fantastic phone we have . Even the ICS Lockscreen feature does display Album Art on the HTC Lockscreen.
Hey thanks , that correct , now when I turn beats icon on/off can fill more baSS in sound, before this trick was no reaction.

Hmm, haven't noticed that, but in general the handling of notifications is very bad with PowerAmp!
Also, the fading function does not work anymore on One X. I posted about this in their forum and they said it is being looked at and will be fixed in the next update, whenever that is... :-/
I only enable Beats Profile when I need to dislodge ear wax. Otherwise I like being able to make out the words being sung.

Funny you mention this. I started noticing this after upgrading to 1.28
Also, the sudden pause/gap when listening to songs is also there; whether the next song starts (crossfading) or you fast-forward a song.
I think PowerAmp has not been optimized for the HTC One X yet. I hope the team is working on it. I love PowerAmp!

I like that as well. When you select ICS Lockscreen in PowerAmp, it uses the actual HTC music widget on your lockscreen, that is very cool.

I've just noticed that if you change the thread priority to +1 , the dips in volume seem to go away. It's good that they are looking into optimizations tho

FLAC, lossless audio with no drop in quality, used by audiophiles to obtain music in exactly the same sound/quality of the original.
Beats Audio - DSP EQ tuner software to alter the sound of the music, like using a crap DSP effect/EQ on a pc soundcard or ancient 1980's midi system
the 2 don't go together, you may as well use mp3 and save on storage space

doesn't matter, let's music
I love to go to my company with playing music by 1X in my pocket. The quality of lossless music is acceptable
P/s : I'm using Pk2 earphone, not beat

I don't think this is quite accurate, and furthermore do not understand the hate for Beats. I am not a fan by any means, but I really dislike it when people bash something because they read it elsewhere or someone else told them about it.
I am not saying that you are that person, Zombiefly
Reminds me of Windows Vista and people's perpetual dislike for the OS strictly from word of mouth when a lot of the bugs were squashed with SP1 (and subsequent SPs) ... but I digress
If some people like it, let them be. It just seems that every time someone expresses a certain preference for Beats or just ask a question about Beats in general, a lot of people jump on the hate bandwagon while not addressing anyone's questions; worse they say they prefer DSP Manager.
The irony here is that NONE OF THAT MATTERS if these so-called 'purists' are using Poweramp with the DVC option ticked on LOL; they're not even using Beats except for the notification icon haha.
Apologies for the rant - again, it has nothing to do with you specifically Zombiefly, just wanted to get that off my chest.
Errr, I might be being stupid here but where in Poweramp is the Sounds option?! I see the BeatAudio icon at the top when I plug headphones in and play music in Poweramp but turning Beats off or on in the notification bar makes no difference.
I cannot find an option for Beats anywhere in the Poweramp settings.
Thanks.

Beats audio is a system feature not Poweramp. you can toggle it on/off from notification bar

You have to click on 'Settings'
If you have the default three dots button (tap on that)
Click on Settings
Click on Audio Engine
Click on Advanced Tweaks
Disable Volume Control

I did say turning it off and on in the notification bar makes no difference.
Thanks Quiksilver78, that does the trick.
The stock music player sounds much better on my earphones.. compared to power amp.
Does it mean the wolfson hardware only works for stock music player?

If stock music player sounds better, you really should try to play with the equalizer of poweramp. For me Poweramp is the best.
I hear a huge difference with my s2, so the wolson hardware is really doing it's job.
regards
same here , poweramp has better preset eq , make sure you get the latest ver of poweramp
Oh ok, thanks guys.. will try out.
u might want to try neutron music player also
Another + for poweramp. Nothing I've used comes close

I'd have to say my favorites would be poweramp or player pro.
At the minute though, I'd sway towards poweramp.

Agreed, neutron player is unreal. It's got everything you could ask for. Better quality than even poweramp.
Give it a go.
I keep switching between power amp and player pro. The only think I dont like about power amp is that even when it's closed it continues to run in the background using memory. I have been using the stock player more lately though.
I used Poweramp on my play but then tried out N7 player and fell in love with it, great user interface and the sound quality when using the equalizers was so much better IMO.
However using N7 on the S3 I found I had to tweak it more to get the sound I was after, not sure if that`s anything to do with the device though? Still using the same earphones as I did on the Play (Skull candy).
Think I`m gonna try poweramp again and see what if any difference there is now.
At first my favourite music player is Neutronmp.
It can play as much as my demanding : file type, format, bitrate.....never ever found one file that neutronmp cant play....exclude .dts.
Sounding so far v.s others app in detail and clearity....
Now, I put my eyes on vlc app. It even can play both tta and dts (not only .tta 6channels like neutronmp).
Vlc is not yet release officially, but a promise to be a king of music app

I must diagree, neutron sounds more "cold" and less focused compared to poweramp. It has also a lack of bass in the eq settings, even if you max everything out poweramp bass boost beats neutron in all aspects.

Hi all !
I like so much the stock music player of Sense 5 but something missing instead of the Xperia Z. There is no way to have a Bass boost without PowerAmp.
And I don't like poweramp. There is any other way to boost bass like poweramps?
Thanks a lot for your help all!

Try DSP Manager. You should find it somewhere in the HOX Forum. It does work on the One. I'm using it too and the Bass is thundering in my Beats headset.
If you can't find it,try searching XDA news. There was a post some time ago.
You just need to flash the DSP zip file through recovery.

"Beats Audio" is just an EQ totally bass boosted, more bass will break your teeth !!
This is the best one i have tested:
