SoniqBoom 2.0.0

New features

  • New UI: two styles, Modern and Retro hi-fi. The phone page is always Retro hi-fi and opens automatically on phones and iPads.
  • Scene view: browse by composer, game, platform, demoparty and scene group. A party's tunes are grouped by competition, in placing order.
  • Playlist files: import and export M3U, M3U8 and XSPF.
  • Streaming quality: cap music at 320, 192, 128 or 96 kbps per device.
  • Search operators: exclusions, several values per operator, exact phrases, and new fields such as length, plays, format family, audio quality, source and status.
  • Spectrum analyser visualizer and a large now-playing cover.
  • Web folders can be added as network shares.
  • MSX music plays with every sound chip (KSS).
  • DLNA Media Server (Beta): browse by genre, folder and playlist; retro tunes start at once.
  • Find folder in a track's menu; click an artist to search for them.

Improvements

  • In Safari, iPhone and iPad, retro tunes start in about a second.
  • The waveform fills in while a retro tune renders.
  • An online-collection tune you also have in your own folders plays your copy.
  • Phone search by field, with filters.
  • In narrow windows, less-used buttons move into a ⋯ menu.
  • Cleaner sound: AdLib/OPL without aliasing, and loud tracker modules no longer clip.

Fixed issues

  • A slow or unresponsive network drive no longer holds up the server.
  • Large libraries are ready sooner after a start.
  • Adding a long playlist to the queue no longer freezes the page.
  • Network-share tracks with a far too short length are corrected.
  • Folders inside archives list their tracks.
  • Network-share covers fill in reliably.
  • A MIDI file whose SoundFont is missing now says so.
  • A tune whose stored render was silent is rendered again.
