VPX — the player that plays (almost) everything

A Windows desktop music player with a real per-track oscilloscope, in the spirit of the 90s trackers and demoscene. Every voice of the song draws its own wave on screen, coloured by frequency. Around 70 formats, from mp3 and flac to the .MOD, .XM, .IT and .S3M modules that used to play in old game intros.

Real capture: four voices of a .MOD file, each drawing its own wave, coloured by frequency. Full window in the still shot.

Install

Direct download from Releases, or through a package manager:

scoop bucket add vpx https://github.com/hellfirespriston-art/scoop-vpx
scoop install vpx-player
winget install SgarD.VPX

(the winget manifest is still in review at microsoft/winget-pkgs#413781)

The installer is Inno Setup, per-user — it does not ask for administrator rights and installs nothing else on the machine. Free trial of 3 days, then a one-off licence.

What it plays

Classic tracker formats on dedicated engines, around 40 more exotic module formats through libopenmpt (WebAssembly), and roughly 20 rare audio formats through an embedded ffmpeg. No codec pack, no extra download.

Why the name

VPX is a nod to the Visual Player of the old DOS days — the same idea of watching the music, brought to Windows 11.

Instalador Inno per-user, sem pedir administrador. Teste grátis de 3 dias e depois licença vitalícia.
