Audacious 3.10 released, Available PPA For Ubuntu Derivative system


Well, here we are nearly a year later, and Audacious 4.0 (with a fully feature-complete Qt UI) still isn't a reality. Never fear, we haven't been totally idle. With the usual smattering of new features and a longer-than-usual list of bug fixes, we are proud to present Audacious 3.10, code-named "Not Quite There Yet".

What is Audacious ?

Audacious is an open source audio player. A descendant of XMMS, Audacious plays your music how you want it, without stealing away your computer’s resources from other tasks. Drag and drop folders and individual song files, search for artists and albums in your entire music library, or create and edit your own custom playlists. Listen to CD’s or stream music from the Internet. Tweak the sound with the graphical equalizer or experiment with LADSPA effects. Enjoy the modern GTK-themed interface or change things up with Winamp Classic skins. Use the plugins included with Audacious to fetch lyrics for your music, to set an alarm in the morning, and more.

Audacious runs on Linux, on BSD derivatives, and on Microsoft Windows
