Mac users: Audion ROCKS!!!

So I’ve been using quicktime to listen to my MP3s. Boy-o-boy was I silly. I downloaded a demo version from CNet (lasts for 15 days and then only lasts for 15 minutes a session) for free. I ADORE Audion. At this moment, I am looking through other faces to download. Too neato.

Any other Audion fans? Favorite faces?

I use audion.

Don’t forget to delete your preferences every once and awhile so you don’t have to register. :slight_smile:

For shame, andygirl! :slight_smile:

I’m listening to my MP3’s on Audion now (CD Playlist, 476 songs). I think they’re coming out with a 2.0 soon… the only feature I don’t like is not being able to put it into some sort of “edit playlist” mode where you could have more than one playlist open in order to move MP3’s around without hunting for files. Other than that, it rocks.

I know, I know. I’m a bad, bad girl. I deserve to be punished.

But that’s a whole different thread.

<d&r>

SoundApp isn’t as visually pretty, but I like it better than Audion. What do you use to rip your MP3’s in the first place? I like N2MP3. It is nice to be able to insert my audio CDs and have them come up labeled (instead of “Audio CD 1”) and with all the tracks correctly identified in the Finder. And it does a really nice job of creating VBR MP3s

SoundApp here too, but I’m curious about Audion. I may give it a try, since Macster has a menu specifically for it (if it’s selected as your default player, that is).

Speaking of Macster, I found a way to get more than 100 results. After you enter your search criteria and click Search, click Search again as Macster is gathering the results. It should give you a first batch of matching songs, and then after a pause, return even more matches. I’ve gotten as many as 300 items listed this way, and it could probably be pushed even further than that.

oooh, Audrey, you’re my hero!!!

Off to try this on both macster and napster for the mac!!!

I’m a SoundJam fan myself. The standard version is free…just got myself a Yamaha CDRW… woo hoo

Speaking of Macster, anyone got a clue about the window calling itself the “Console”? I comprehend the “messages from Napster” stuff, but why the command prompt at the bottom? Can you DO anything with it?

no idea. I know that if you search for a username that isn’t valid, it pops up in the console window. Maybe you can ping people or something…

Soundjam is sweet. Do you know if they have visualizations for it like WinAmp does? That would just be icing on the cake.

SoundJam blows the others away, and yes they have some cool visual plug-ins. G-Force is the best.

:smiley: Have fun!

You’ll be checking just one app, then, since Macster is now officially the Napster client for the Mac. If you visit macster.com, you’ll see their press release about it, and all the links on that page head to the Napster Mac section.
