ColatPlayer2 vs MusicFreq

colatplayer2 is a music player that plays FLAC and other Hi-Res files straight from folders. Stack an equalizer (EQ), reverb (concert effect) and effect pads on top, and a song you know becomes something to play with. ■ New in 8.0 STEM MIXER (new) Split a track into vocal, drums, bass and the rest — and mix it your own way. • Effects on each lane. 46 in all • Drop the vocal, swap the bass for a synth, chop just the drums on the beat • One XY pad moves two knobs at once. LPF / HPF / BPF draw their curve over the analyzer • A spectrum, level meter and waveform for every lane • PRESET — name what you built and call it back from the list • Try it for 60 minutes. Another 60 becomes available 12 hours later Requires iPhone 14 Pro / iPhone 15 or later, or an iPad with 8 GB of memory or more (M1 and later Pro/Air, iPad mini 7). Separating a track is heavy work, so it is not available on earlier devices. Everything else in the app works as before. ■ New in 7.2 [Managing Songs] 1- Copy files directly within ColatPlayer - no Files app needed. 2- Link folders from other apps and play their songs directly, without copying. 3- Organize your songs right inside the app - no Files app needed. ■ New in 7.0 - FX Pads Chop the track with eight pads. ROLL, REVERSE, BRAKE, TRANS and more. Four banks (BEAT / TONE / LOOP / SAMPLE), 32 effects in total. Everything locks to the beat (BPM) automatically. - XY Filter Sweep low-pass (LPF) and high-pass (HPF) with your finger. The filter curve is drawn over a live spectrum analyzer, so you can see the band you are touching. - Speed and Key 0.5x to 2.0x, continuously. With KEY on the pitch stays put (master tempo). With KEY off it behaves like changing a turntable's speed. - Resume where you left off Close the app completely and it picks up the same track and position. - Gapless playback No silence between tracks. - Level meter Choose how it looks. Input gain and a limiter are included. ■ Supported files FLAC / ALAC / AAC / MP3 / AIFF / WAV Hi-Res up to 96kHz / 24-bit. No conversion needed. Three ways to get files in: - Finder (iTunes) on a Mac - The Files app on your iPhone - AirDrop or Share from another app Folders stay folders. Make one per album and it lines up that way. ■ Finding a track Pick the one song you want out of many, fast. By artist, album, playlist or title. Swipe to move through them. Build the moment with stars and the queue. ■ Make it yours Choose a wallpaper, or use a photo from your own library. Pick the clock typeface. An old iPhone you no longer carry makes a fine desktop player on a stand. ■ Additional effects (In-App Purchase, one-time) - Efx PEQ A 3-band parametric equalizer (EQ). Turn gain, Q and frequency, and hear the change as you make it. Includes a stereo spectrum analyzer with peak hold, and a level meter. Earphones and genres differ. Tune it to your taste. - Efx DSP Bring the live show back. Eight rooms - GEKIJO, LIVEHOUSE, THATER, CLUB, HALL, ARENA, STADIUM, DOME - in two flavours each, sixteen presets in all. Adjust reverb amount, delay time and decay time. Put the air of that night back around the music. - Efx FX-Pad The FX pads and XY filter described above. All one-time purchases. One Apple ID covers your other devices. Changed phones? Tap Restore Purchase. You can try each one in demo mode before buying. ■ Good for you if - You want FLAC and Hi-Res played as-is, no conversion - You want an equalizer to shape the sound - You like watching a spectrum analyzer and level meters - You want to play with effects on songs you already know - You listen offline, without using data ```

MusicFreq is a music player. MusicFreq analyzes the audio data of the DRM Free music being played and visualizes it in a real-time frequency spectrum graph. This graph appears when you're playing DRM-free (unprotected) MP3, M4A, AIFF, etc. music files that have been synced to your Music Library using your Mac or Windows computer and then downloaded to your device. Music purchased from AppleMusic or iTunesStore is in m4p (AAC) format protected by DRM (Apple FairPlay). Please note that protected audio files and cloud items will not be displayed in the graph. (Music can still be played.) Graphs can be customized as line, scatter, and bar graphs. The screen color changes to the same color as the album artwork of the music being played. You can control music with tap, long tap, left and right swipe. Display the simplified setting menu with the upper swipe. You can quickly change the basic color of the screen to your favorite color with few operations. Screen rotation is automatic and can be displayed and operated in both portrait and landscape. MusicFreq controls the iOS system player, so the music to be played is shared with the music library of the iOS Music App, the music controller widget in the lock screen and the control center, the equalizer for the music in the settings app. You can also use the timer stop setting within the settings app to stop playback. It is also possible to remotely control the player from a Blutooth device. Preparation Add DRM-free music files such as MP3 and M4A (unprotected AAC) to the Music app library on your Mac or Windows computer. Connect your iPhone to your Mac or Windows computer and sync your music library. Download the synced DRM-free music in the Music app on your iPhone and start playing it. Make sure the graph is displayed in the MusicFreq App. Function FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) of voice data and high frequency real time display of frequency spectrum graph MP3 BPM (Beat Per Minutes) analysis and title string blink animation Title string morphing animation Album artwork display Forced screen rotation lock operation Reproduction of iTunes playlist folder hierarchy Automatic scale expansion/contraction for MP3 in linear scale graph display Player operation Tap: Play / Pause Swipe left / right: Back / forward Long tap on left / right area of ​​screen: fast reverse / fast forward Seek bar (slider) tap: Move to any playback time position Swipe up: Display customization menu Swipe down: Display song list Two finger swipe left and right : Change graph type Two finger swipe up and down : Change graph granularity Two finger rotation : Change graph layout Pinch-in: Logarithmic scale Pinch out: Linear scale Graph customization Select from 5 types: line graph, scatter diagram, bar graph (short, long, dotted line) Audio stereo channel left / right graph independent, right channel graph reversed left / right, left / right mixed drawing Graph peak hold, descent, and bound display Automatic adjustment of graph drawing timing (Automatic audio delay matching with Bluetooth audio device connection, manual adjustment is also possible) Adjustment of drawing display information amount Adjustment of drawing update speed Change color (customize menu) Linear scale / logarithmic scale graph display change Notes All audio files in the music library can be played, but only DRM-free (unprotected) music files such as mp3 and m4a can be displayed as a graph. Also, cloud items cannot be analyzed on the device and will not be displayed in graphs, so please download them to the device using a genuine iOS music app. You cannot add DRM-free music files to your library on only device such as an iPhone iPad or iPod Touch. You need a Mac or Windows Computer to load DRM-free (unprotected) music files such as mp3s and m4a into your iOS Music App library. Graph drawing is a heavy processing load, which can cause your device to overheat and consume more power. Please be careful of your battery level.
