AdaptX for Winamp

Making the preferred music track sound better means that some modifications have to be made usually to the application used for playing back the songs. In case this software solution is Winamp, there are a lot of enhancements that one can put to good use.

AdaptX for Winamp is one such example and this particular add-on is dedicated to extending the standard features of the music player and making it evolve into a more advanced tool by turning Winamp into a DX plugin host.

The newly acquired capabilities will help users load DirectX plugins and use them inside their favorite music player to give a whole new dimension to the sound mainly because this particular type of add-ons are of higher quality than most DSP plugins.

A bonus feature of AdaptX for Winamp is the ability to work with Windows Media Player (WMP) version 9 or higher, so its potential is broader than it would seem initially and more users can benefit from its capabilities.

After the quick setup procedure is complete, the built-in plugins can be used to increase the quality of the sound for the songs waiting to be played. Activating the AdaptX window will reveal all the controls that are available for loading and managing the chorus, distortion, compressor, echo, flanger and many other plugins that can be added to the list and activated.

Creating chains of plugins is also possible thanks to the saving feature that AdaptX for Winamp comes with. An important mention that has to be made is that for this particular version DirectX 8 is recommended, but it will work with other, more recent versions as well.
