RetroAmp

RetroAmp

Bring the classic desktop music player to your CORSAIR XENEON EDGE. RetroAmp puts a pixel-perfect player, a working 10-band equalizer, a playlist and a big visualizer on your screen, plays internet radio and your own music, and wears thousands of classic Winamp 2 skins.

Requirements

CORSAIR XENEON EDGE

iCUE 5.46 or newer on Windows

Internet connection for radio, station search and skins (your own music plays offline)

Getting started

Add RetroAmp to your XENEON EDGE; Extra Large shows all four windows side by side.

Press Play to start SomaFM's Groove Salad, or pick a station under Radio and Local Music → Station.

For your own music, tap ADD on the playlist, then FILE, and browse to your music. Set Music Folder in the settings to choose where browsing starts.

Try a skin under Skin, or browse them at skins.webamp.org and paste a link into Skin Link.

Good to know

The equalizer and visualizer work on radio and your own music. For PC Media, iCUE only shares the song name and controls, so the visualizer is animated and the EQ can't change PC audio.

Some radio stations don't allow equalizer access; they still play, with an animated visualizer.

RetroAmp only reads the folders you browse to. Playlists and settings stay on your PC; no account, no tracking.

Like every touch-enabled iCUE widget, RetroAmp receives the touches on it, so iCUE's swipe-to-change-page gesture doesn't pass through it.

Fixed:

REM on the playlist now works for Internet Radio, not just local music. Tap a station, then REM:

SEL removes the selected station (handy for stations that won't play)

MISC removes added stations that failed to play

CROP keeps only the selected station

ALL removes every station you added and brings back the full SomaFM list

Removed SomaFM stations come back if you pick them again in the Station setting, or with REM ALL.

The playlist always keeps at least one station.
