Overview: Download. Winamp: 2009-09-28: Shpeck runs Winamp visualisation plugins in a stand-alone window, a Columns UI panel or Default UI element. Foobar is highly customizable. You will always be able to add a feature with a component, or to configure something the way you want. That needed to be said. Foobar2000 works with playlists. Nlike Winamp, there is not 'the Playlist', which is the current playlist showing the tracks played before and the next to be played, permanently displayed. If your configuration of Foobar doesn't work with EvilLyrics, you can use a plugin called winampspam which mimics Winamp API behavior. After installing you may want to set title formatting to be sent to EvilLyrics to the simple set of 'Artist - Title', i.e. Without album, year, etc included.

Plugin setting window also available from Foobar2000 main menu: choose 'Show Winamp DSP window' from 'View' menu;
Known bugs and limitations[edit]
- Version 1.4.1 - 1.4.4 startup crashes(how to avoid);
- Supports only Winamp 2.0 compatible plugins;
- Doesn't support plugins with Pitch control and Speed control functionality;
- 192kHz files are not being played correctly (only up to 96kHz)
Sound quality issues[edit]
Due to difference in Foobar and Winamp architecture (Foobar has floating point audio chunks, while Winamp has fixed point ones), floating point to fixed point conversion (and vice versa) is necessary.
Conversion Bit-depth parameter can be set to:
- 16-bit: low quality, failsafe. Choose this setting, if you encounter a problem while playback;
- 24-bit: hi-quality;
- 32-bit: highest quality.
Foo_dsp_winamp converter has built-in limiter to avoid audio signal clipping. Limiter is non-bypassing (i.e. always on), so if you want to keep signal spectrum close to its original, you should use ReplayGain subsystem.
How to avoid startup crash[edit]
Winamp Or Foobar Reddit
- For Foobar v0.9.6 and later: download the latest version of foo_dsp_winamp (1.4.5);
- For Foobar versions prior to 0.9.6: you can avoid startup crash by removing dsp_sps.dll from C:Program FilesWinampPlugins folder (it's a default path, check your winamp installation to find desired path). Than you can change 'Winamp plugins path' in foo_dsp_winamp settings and put dsp_sps.dll back to Plugins folder.
