AIMP provides all the basic tools you’d expect from a media player.
However, it evolves into something special once you discover its
special features. It supports more than 20 audio formats and 32-bit
digital audio, and it converts between various formats, too. You can
also customize it with Winamp add-ons.
The program’s interface felt instantly comforting. Its professional
design is sleek, and all its command buttons are simple to navigate.
We never felt confused or lost enough to require a visit to the Help
file. The program’s functionality isn’t anything special because it
simply lets you upload MP3s and play CDs using its standard controls.
We had no problems doing either, and we were pleased with its crisp
sound quality. However, this program came into its own with its lush
variety of features. Its 16-band graphic equalizer was nice, but we
only noticed a difference in sound when we used the presets. It also
offered an Auto Shutdown feature where we could customize the time
limit and action for shutting the program down. Most impressively,
there was a feature for recording online radio, just like holding a
tape deck up to the stereo in the old days. With all its pieces adding
up to a superior product, we enjoyed every minute of using this
program.
AIMP is freeware. It comes as a compressed file and leaves folders
upon uninstalling. While its functionality is pretty standard, its
features impressed us, and we recommend this program.
