ANMP ~ Another Nameless Music Player
ANMP aims to be a versatile but lightweight audio player, just as the other hundred thousands out there. It is written in C++11. As being only a frontend, ANMP itself doesn’t know anything about audio formats and how to decode them. That’s why it uses 3rd party libraries to decode them. By using VgmStream, GameMusicEmu, LazyUSF and supporting looped songs natively, ANMP is esp. suited to play various audio formats from video games. Moreover it supports Looped Midi Tracks.
Main Features:
- muting multichannel audio files
- gapless playback (for most streamed audio formats)
- arbitrary (forward) looping of songs (i.e. even nested loops)
- synthesizing MIDI files using fluidsynth
- multi-channel audio rendering
- overlapping notes do not kill each other
- unrolling looped MIDI tracks
- volume response compatible to N64’s software synth
- supports an IIR lowpass filter compatible to Rareware‘s N64 games (Conkers Bad Fur Day, Jet Force Gemini)
- support for cue sheets
- support for audio normalization based on EBU R 128
- exposes basic commands via D-Bus

BlackPlayer ~ Comprehensive Dark Themed Player
BlackPlayer is a comprehensive Android music player that helps you keep all your music files organized on your smartphone and ready to listen to. You can also equalize them for the best experience with each song. And all these features are packaged in a dark and minimalist interface, which is the stylistic hallmark of this player.
Like many other music players, BlackPlayer has several tabs to keep your music organized. At the top of the screen, there’s a list of several categories: song, artist, album, folder, and playlist. You can create your own playlists or opt for smart playlists, which add your most-listened-to songs automatically. The app also tells you how many artists are in your library, as well as the total hours of music at your fingertips. Similarly, BlackPlayer lets you create instant mixes.
Another feature offered by BlackPlayer is the ability to equalize a song’s sound depending on where and how you’re listening to it. You can also choose cover images, complete information, and even add lyrics. This music player’s style is also worth highlighting, as it features a dark theme with colors ranging from black to gray.

AudioGridder ~ Audio & MIDI Network Bridge
AudioGridder is a network bridge for audio and MIDI that allows for offloading the DSP processing of audio plugins to remote computers. This can come in handy when mixing complex projects or running CPU intensive instruments.
AudioGridder ServerΒ runs on a computer hosting your effect and instrument plugins. On your workstation, on which you run your DAW, you use theΒ AudioGridder FX or instrument pluginΒ to access your plugin library over the network. The plugin is looking for available servers on your network and once connected allows you to create insert chains or load instruments. Midi and audio data from your DAW will be streamed over the network, processed on the server and streamed back.

Lattice ~ CLI Toolkit For Music Collectors
A high-performance CLI toolkit for music collectors who manage their own libraries. Lattice provides a suite of tools for library visualization, integrity verification, cover art extraction, and metadata auditing β all from a single, zero-dependency script.
Why this exists
Modern music players often hide your library behind proprietary databases. Lattice is built for collectors who treat the filesystem as the source of truth. It reads tags directly via mutagen, ensuring your library is portable and player-agnostic.
Features:
| Mode | Flag | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Library Tree | --library | Generate a formatted ASCII/Unicode tree of your entire collection. |
| AI Library | --ai-library | Token-efficient export designed for LLM recommendation prompts. |
| Genre Wings | --all-wings | Generate separate library catalogs segmented by genre. |
| Integrity Checks | --testFLAC | Parallel verification of FLAC/MP3/Opus/WAV integrity via FFmpeg. |
| Art Extraction | --extractArt | Extract embedded covers with format-priority ranking (FLAC > Opus). |
| Tag Audit | --auditTags | Identify and report files with missing or inconsistent metadata. |

Bitfake2 ~ Audio Tool Handler & Manipulator
Bitfake was originally created to detect fakeΒ
.FLACΒ files through spectral analysis. It has since grown into a multipurpose CLI tool for handling music more easily and efficiently.One common problem was that getting a track’s metadata required longΒ
ffprobeΒ commands with messy output. Converting music withΒffmpegΒ was also repetitive. The command itself is easy to remember, but writing scripts to convert entire directories felt inefficient and slow. This project now performs metadata and conversion tasks directly through linked libraries (TagLib/libsndfile/libav*).
Features:
- Get metadata
- Get ReplayGain info (useful for music players)
- Spectral analysis on 44.1 kHzΒ
.FLACΒ files (higher sample rates may be misrepresented, so be careful) - Lossy diagnosis (banding score)
- File Conversion + VBR Support (Works for outputs likeΒ
.wav,Β.flac,Β.ogg,Β.mp3,Β.aac,Β.opus) - Tagging metadata (Works for single files, but not directories yet)
- Calculating ReplayGain and applying it to files (Works for track replay gain iterating through directories, album replay gain is a bit funky?)
- Directory Conversion (works for all previously mentioned formats!)
- CoverArt+ (Brings along cover art among all conversions!)
- Organizing Files by album! (Give a dir of random music, and bitfake will organize it – ty to uncognic)
- Directory Tagging (YAY!)
- Album folder renaming from tags (Artist – Album (Year))
- Spectrogram generation (in .png)
- Version info (WOW! BEST YET!)
- MusicBrainz Syncing data.

RxFFmpeg ~ Android Development Framewok
RxFFmpeg is a high-performance multimedia processing framework built on top of FFmpeg and optimized specifically for Android environments, enabling developers to perform complex audio and video editing operations programmatically. It integrates widely used encoding libraries such as x264, mp3lame, and fdk-aac, allowing it to support a broad range of media formats and transformations. The framework provides a wrapper around FFmpeg commands, making it easier to execute advanced media operations without directly handling low-level command syntax. It supports both synchronous and asynchronous execution, enabling developers to manage long-running media tasks efficiently within mobile applications. The system also includes features like hardware acceleration through MediaCodec, significantly improving performance on supported devices. Its design focuses on flexibility, allowing users to perform tasks such as transcoding, clipping, filtering, and compositing media with minimal overhead.
Features:
- Callback system for tracking execution progress
- Execution of FFmpeg commands through a simplified interface
- Support for synchronous and asynchronous media processing
- Hardware acceleration using MediaCodec
- Wide range of video and audio editing capabilities
- Integration with multiple encoding libraries
