Welcome to Simple Music Player!

SimpleMP or Simple Music Player is a simple and easy to use music player for free. It plays the most common music files (mp3, ogg, wma, wav) in a very simple way, just drag&drop your files or folders on the main screen and push play...

So why another music player? When I decided to make my own player back in 2005, the Winamp 3 player was too buggy and very slow! I used my favorite programming language Delphi 5 and I learned a lot of new stuff. It was a great time and a few people in the Delphi community honored my work :-). Unfortunately, the interface of the FMOD sound library was no longer supported for Delphi, so I decided in 2007 to stop working on it.

In 2012 (after long time), I decided to make a new one!

Attention: This is a develop playground for me. It's a newer version of my old simple music player (SimpleMP).

It's not perfect and many function not yet implemented.

Use it with your own risk!

Simple functions

• Plays mp3, ogg, wma and wav files (should be enough... or not?)
• Drag&Drop your files or directories into the player (on the play list)
• Drag&Drop files within the playlist
• Add directories to the medialib (not yet finished)
• Simple 10 band equalizer
• Simple volume fade in and out (5 sec per default, can be changed in the settings file)
• Shortcut keys if the player is on top and has the focus
  • [Space] play or pause current file (if none is playing, the first selected file starts)
  • [Enter] play selected files
  • [Del] delete selected files from current playlist
  • [j] play next file
  • [k] play previuos file
  • [s] shuffle mode on / off
  • [r] repeat play list on / off
  • [m] mute player on / off
  • [e] show the equalizer
  • [l] show the medialib
• Flexible, responsive UI (different views for different window sizes)
• You can link with the supported files (open with...)
• Working as single instance, that means
  • if you try start the player twice you get always the first started player
  • if you link with supported media files, the player loads the new files and play the first file from the added files
• Tooltip on playlist files
• Dpi aware (per monitor)
