About this app

Neutron Player is an advanced music player with an audiophile-grade platform-independent in-house developed 32/64-bit audio engine which does not rely on the OS music player API and thus delivers truly unique experience to you.

* It outputs hi-res audio directly to the internal DAC (including USB DAC) and offers a rich set of DSP effects.

* It is the only application capable of sending audio data to the network renderers (UPnP/DLNA, Chromecast) with all DSP effects applied, including the gapless playback.

* It features a unique PCM to DSD real-time oversampling mode (if supported by DAC), so you can play your favorite music in DSD resolution.

* It offers the sophisticated user interface with an advanced media library functionality that is appreciated by audiophiles and music lovers from all parts of our world!

Shows lots of info, which I appreciate. Like the real-time bitrate of vbr files. Also, I think the UI is fine, and you can customize it a lot. I have no idea what people are expecting when they complain about the UI. It is intimidating at first because there are so many controls and options. I take screenshots of the original settings whenever I change things. Would be cool if we could sync or back up settings. Overall I am impressed with it.

Wow! Most of my favorite podcasts have bad production. Compression is a necessity. A long time ago I gave up looking for a portable solution. Until now I have never seen an audio player with this much control of the audio. There's high pass, low pass, two EQs with Q level control, and a compressor. You can even change the sequence of these effects. Amazing!

The only problem is the UX, It's pretty cluttered and navigating is awful. Like if I'm in an album and I want to go to an artist, I have to tap back a couple of times, get back to the library, select Artists and then I can look for the artist, which takes way too long for a simple navigation like this, unlike most other apps in which most things are a swipe and a tap away.

What's new

* New:
- Pseudo-stereo DSP effect: Creates a pseudo-stereo (fake stereo) effect from mono sources (mono/1-channel tracks only). Manage by profile, accessible via Playback -> DSP Effect -> Pseudo-stereo
* Improved overall performance
! Fixed:
- Category Widget not showing up when pressing the 3-dot button in the Media Library screen (bottom left corner)
- Occasional ANRs (Application Not Responding) when the app tries to connect to the network while opening the UI
