ColatPlayer2 vs SDS / Speaker Design Suite

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 ```
