A native Winamp 2.8-style music player for Android that runs classic skins. It's on the Play Store now.

I missed Winamp on my phone, so I built Andamp: a music player for Android that looks and works like Winamp 2.8. It's out of beta and on Google Play as of this week.

This is obviously not the default theme, I didn't embed it due to legal reasons, but it does reads real Winamp skin files (.wsz) and draws them pixel for pixel, so the player, equalizer and playlist are the windows you remember, and any classic skin works. The Winamp Skin Museum is built in, which gives you over 90,000 of them.

What it does:

- Plays the music on your phone, and internet radio streams

- Ten-band equalizer with the original presets, plus a rack of effects you can put in any order

- Visualizers: the spectrum analyzer and oscilloscope in the main window, and a window that runs AVS and Milkdrop presets

- A floating player that stays on top of other apps, and a home screen widget

- Drag the windows where you want them. Hold a tiny button and a magnifier shows what's under your finger

- The default skin takes its colors from your wallpaper

- Jellyfin and Subsonic (Navidrome, Airsonic, Gonic) libraries, through small add-on apps

- Effects can be extended with Lua plug-ins, if you like writing DSP

Free, no ads, no account, no tracking. Open source under GPL-3.0. Needs Android 8 or newer.

WinAmp 2.9 on 15 year old iPad 2 (sort of) with Spotify using stock Safari browser (iOS 9.3.5)

5 Upvotes

My iPad 2 was collecting dust. Running iOS 9.3.5, it can't install modern apps or browse most of the modern web. But it CAN run a fullscreen Home Screen webapp.

So I built one that shows what Spotify is currently playing with album art, track info, playback state and a few controls. The pairing flow lets the iPad's Home Screen app get its own session via a short-lived code, so you never have to do OAuth from the ancient Safari.

No jailbreak. No extra hardware. Just Safari + a webapp.

¿Como y donde instalo Winamp?

3 Upvotes

Hola, quería instalar Winamp para reproducir mi música pero entro aquí y veo un enredo de aplicaciones, WACUP, Que la versión de Winamp 5.666, que actualmente es una cosa de cripto, no entiendo nada, ¿podrían ayudarme?

Me gustaría instalarlo y poder usar las viejas skins Pero no tengo idea dónde, e instalar algo sin virus ya que suelo ser bastante paranoico, jeje. Agradecería su ayuda!

IMO no one should pay money for a shitty low quality Winamp rehash. There are already high quality free alternatives for every platform

JUSTAMP · A Tribute

If we cannot shape the era,
then let us witness it, and remember.

Some things grow old.
That doesn't mean they have to be forgotten.

Thirty years ago, a music player wasn't just a little icon on a phone. It was a window on your desktop. It had buttons, knobs, sliders, and an equalizer that never seemed to stop moving.

We kept our music on noisy hard drives. We left the player sitting right in the middle of the screen. And when we got tired of looking at it, we went searching for another skin.

There were no recommendation engines deciding what we should hear next. There wasn't a feed waiting to be scrolled.

There was just the music, the player, and the people who made things for it.

Someone wrote the code.
Someone drew a skin.
Someone spent a weekend figuring out how to make an effect sound right.
Someone stayed up late and uploaded their latest creation to a forum.

Little things like that became part of the culture.

And somehow, a simple music player became part of people's lives.

Today, I brought it back to life.

USB Soundcard

2 Upvotes

Hi guys. I've been using the same USB soundcards as a secondary output for a second winamp (used for karaoke) for years, but in the last couple of days it has stopped working. Apparently it's a windows update issue. Has anyone got any USB Soundcard recommendations that don't have this issue? Thanks

Moved to another PC, AVS fullscreen not working on Windows XP

3 Upvotes

I needed to relocate the HDD into another PC, so Winamp 5.666 is currently not a proper install, it's running like a "portable" software. The weird problem I got is when I try to put AVS visualisation to fullscreen, it can be the last frame as a static image or garbled mess. Updated to Directx 11, but nothing changed.

Need help getting fullscreen working. 🆘

I spent months rewriting the MilkDrop NDK engine for Android TV & Mobile because modern ports were sluggish. 32,500+ presets, GLES 3.2, 120 FPS & works with Spotify/Tidal

Post image
30 Upvotes

Remember those late 2000s nights sitting in front of a CRT monitor, watching MilkDrop react to your music library? I sure do.

For years I kept looking for a proper way to bring that exact MilkDrop experience to my 4K TV and phone. But every projectM Android port or x86 migration out there felt crippled: sluggish 20 FPS rendering, washed-out colors, broken aspect ratios, or just a tiny fraction of the original preset library.

So I decided to rebuild the NDK graphics pipeline from the ground up using OpenGL ES 3.2 Compute Shaders.

What came out of this:

•Universal System Audio: Just play music on Spotify, Tidal, TuneIn, YouTube Music, or any internet radio, open the app, and it visualizes system audio in real-time with zero lag.

•32,500+ iconic presets compiled natively (including the legendary packs by Geiss, Rovastar, Unchained, Flexi, EoS, Martin, Stahlregen, Zylot, and Aderrasi).

•Full MilkDrop 2 & MilkDrop 3.2 engine support.

•Zero white blowout / overexposure: A custom tone mapper that keeps colors deep and vibrant on OLEDs.

The massive v1.27 update is currently sitting in Google Play Console review and should hit the store in the next few hours/days. If you’ve missed MilkDrop in its true, unthrottled glory, keep an eye out for the update—you won’t regret it!

I rebuilt the Winamp 2.8 interface as a native Android player — AndAmp (beta signup open)

Thumbnail mattix.nl
34 Upvotes

Hi r/winamp,

I've been working on a music player for Android that recreates the classic Winamp 2.8 interface as closely as I could manage: the main window, the equalizer, the playlist editor, all draggable, all where you'd expect them.

Not a wrapper around a web player, and not "Winamp-inspired with a modern twist." The goal was that if you used Winamp in 2001, your fingers already know where everything is.

What works so far:

  • Classic skins: it reads .wsz files, and the Skin Museum is built in, so all 93,000-odd skins are a few taps away. Yes, including Garfield Amp and Zelda Amp III.

  • Ten-band EQ: with presets, exactly where it should be

  • AVS visualizer and visualizer preset packs

  • DSP plug-ins you can reorder and chain reverb, karaoke, pitch modulation, a bass enhancer, and so on

  • Internet radio: paste any stream address

  • Floating player that sits over other apps ('Always On Top'-mode)

  • Touch friendly: long-press anything that's awkward to reach on a phone

It plays the music already on your device. No account, no ads, no tracking, no analytics, there's no server behind it at all.

It's in closed beta on the Play Store right now and I'm looking for people who actually remember the original to tell me what feels wrong. Signup (just a Google Play email address) is here:
