Foobar is the "new" Winamp, it has been for 15years+
Winamp much better fit my workflow, which is: I wanna right-click a folder on my desktop that houses the specific album I want to play, click "Play in Winamp", and have the music player launch quietly in the system tray and throw up the occasional notification when the track changes.
I remember there were even faster ways to "playlistify" directory structure (as I wrote around here [1]).
- Install
- Turn off visualization
- Drag and drop folder full of audio on the main window
That's one of the things I like about it the most: I do a ton of reorganization of my audio, so the fact that foobar can run in 'dumb' mode is a godsend.
Bonus point: https://www.foobar2000.org/mac (MacOS version)
No idea if there are some missing features that are exists on Windows version.
Thankfully foo runs flawlessly under WINE, plugins and all.
