VUPlayer for Windows

VUPlayer is a refreshing break from the norm when it comes to audio players. It offers a highly intuitive interface with simple controls and ultra-quick response times. This freeware multi-format audio player for Windows supports a wide range of formats, including some very rare ones like MOD, MTM, S3M, XM, and MPC, along with the more common formats like MP3 and MP4.

One of the standout features of VUPlayer is its support for gapless playback, optional 32-bit mixing, and a solid 9-band graphic equalizer. It also offers support for multiple visuals through a plug-in system, encoding to Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, APE, WMA, and WV formats, and even Audioscrobbler support.

However, navigating through the advanced options can be a bit confusing for some users, and the player may crash when another application tries to access the soundcard simultaneously. Despite these drawbacks, VUPlayer is an interesting player that handles unusual formats and offers some impressive add-ons, all for free.
