Lots. Mediaplayers like mplayer, xine, vlc, audioplayers like mpd,
aqualung, audacious, audio editors like rezound and others
Are people actually using Audacity as just an MP3 player? Have I missed
some setting that makes it suitable for that? Whenever I've loaded
Audacity it is an audio editing environment, not a player.
I didn't explain my purpose for using Audacity. I use it to play MP3 files, but
also
to change their tempo while preserving the pitch so I can learn drum and guitar parts
for complicated riffs. It's excellent for this purpose. I've tried a few other
tempo
control apps before but they were excessively choppy. It's been a while so if
anyone
can recommend one that works better than Audacity these days, I'd love to hear it.
