Foobar2000 ~ Web User Interface
The Foobar2000 Web UI application consists of two parts:
- A Node.js server that controls foobar2000 music player using native CLI commands and foo_controlserver component (a tcp/ip server for foobar2000).
- A web application that allows the user to send basic foobar2000 playback commands and adjust application volume level. Information about the track that is currently playing is also displayed and automatically updated when the track or playback status changes.

foo_wave_minibar ~ Foobar2000 Waveform Seekbar
A foobar user interface element providing a seekbar that displays the waveform of the playing song, compatible with both the Default and the Columns interface components.
www.foobar2000.org/components/view/foo_wave_minibar_mod
- Download the component file (
foo_wave_minibar_mod.fb2k-component) - Open foobar2000
- Open the Preferences dialog using File → Preferences or the Ctrl + P shortcut
- Select Components in the left-hand pane
- Click the Install… button at the bottom of the Components page
- Browse to the downloaded component file, select it, and click Open
- Click OK or Apply to confirm the installation
- Restart foobar2000 when prompted
- After restart, open View → Layout → Enable Layout Editing Mode
- Right-click anywhere in the layout and choose Add New UI Element → Tabs (or Tab Stack, depending on your UI)
- Right-click the new tab and choose Add New UI Element → Seekbar → Waveform Minibar (mod)
- Resize the panel as needed so the waveform is clearly visible
- Exit layout editing mode using View → Layout → Disable Layout Editing Mode
- Play a track and allow the waveform to generate; it may take a few seconds on first playback
Options:
Match pattern
Title-formatting pattern used to identify tracks when storing and reusing generated waveforms.
Use custom colors
Enables manual color selection for the waveform instead of using the active UI theme colors.
FPS
Sets the frame rate for waveform rendering. Higher values produce smoother movement but increase CPU usage.
Waveform scale
Controls vertical scaling of the waveform. Original preserves natural peak levels, while Normalize scales all tracks to fill the available height.
dB scale
Switches between linear amplitude scaling and logarithmic decibel scaling.
One mouse wheel notch seeks ahead/back
Defines how far playback jumps when using the mouse wheel over the waveform. A value of 0 disables wheel seeking.
Reversed
Reverses the mouse wheel seek direction.
Track to prefer when showing waveform
Determines which track’s waveform is displayed: the playing track, the selected track, or the playing track with fallback to selected when stopped.
Cursor width
Adjusts the thickness of the playback position indicator.
Do not revert to rendering the active track on player start
Prevents the waveform from automatically rendering on startup until playback begins.
Always show cursor
Keeps the playback position marker visible even when playback is stopped.
Abort seekbar generation when speed drops below real time
Stops waveform generation if decoding becomes too slow, preventing playback or UI performance issues.
Half wave mode
Displays only one polarity of the waveform (typically the positive half) instead of mirroring the signal above and below the center line. This creates a flatter, denser display that works well in very short or narrow panels and improves readability when vertical space is limited.
Draw window border
Enables or disables a border around the waveform panel.
Transparent background
Removes the panel’s background fill so the waveform blends with the surrounding UI or theme. This is useful when embedding the minibar into tab stacks, splitters, or custom layouts where a solid background would look out of place.
This component is highly configurable, making it suitable both as a simple compact seekbar replacement and as a detailed visual waveform display in more complex foobar2000 layouts.

Foobar2000 ~ Classic User Interface
The Default User Interface from early foobar2000 versions is back! This component serves no particular useful purpose; it is provided for the nostalgia value only. It is missing various functionality considered to be essential in current foobar2000 series, such as persistently visible volume control. There are no plans to add any new functionality into the Classic User Interface.
Warning: product may contain Finnish profanity.
Changes since the original version:
- Modified to run side by side with the current Default UI. Please do not remove the Default UI DLL.
- Fixed the infamous seekbar repaint bug on Windows themes other than “classic”.
- Replaced popup volume slider with the latest Default UI code.
- Restored original “Preferences: Title Formatting” page from old foobar2000 versions
- Various cosmetic changes.

foo_dynamic_range ~ Foobar & Dynamic Range Meter
Dynamic Range Meter is a foobar2000 component designed to give the same information as the Dynamic Range Offline Meter. This component can process all audio formats foobar2000 can handle (a.o. flac, ape and wavpack) and also supports higher sample rates and bit depth. Using the Open Audio CD option it can also directly read audio CDs and calculate the Dynamic Range values without the need of ripping the CD to disk. Log information with extended statistics is automatically copied to the clipboard and can be pasted back in any text editor. ~ web.archive.org/web/20130317013715/http://pleasurizemusic.com/free-downloads
Dynamic Range Meter is a foobar2000 component designed to give the same information as the Dynamic Range Offline Meter from the Pleasurize Music Foundation. I wrote this component because the original Dynamic Range Meter is limited to reading only wav, aiff and mp3 files. This component can process all audio formats foobar2000 can handle (a.o. flac, ape and wavpack) and also supports higher sample rates and bit depth. Using the Open Audio CD option it can also directly read audio CDs and calculate the Dynamic Range values without the need of ripping the CD to disk. As an option, a log file with information and extended statistics can be saved to disk. ~ web.archive.org/web/20130428024316/http://www.jokhan.demon.nl/DynamicRange
This version is for foobar2000 version 1.4 or older and is depreciated.
Adding Dynamic Range:
- Install the foo_dynamic_range component
- Navigate to File > Preferences > Advanced > Tools > Dynamic Range Meter
- Enable “Write DR meta data tags“
- Add a new toolbar button and assign Context>Dynamic Range Meter
- Download DR toolbar icon and change button icon
- Navigate to File > Preferences > Display > Default User Interface > Playlist View
- Add a new custom column, name it “DR” and assign this pattern, “[%DYNAMIC RANGE%]“
- Select an album and click the new DR toolbar icon to scan the files
