Help: Effects

Balance

Control the volume balance between the left and right speaker

Force Mono

Forces multiple channel audio to be downmixed to mono output

Limiter

Will lower the gain of the audio output if it is too high.  This prevents audio clipping and distortion

  • Attack - How quickly the limiter is applied
  • Release - How quickly the output is returned to its uncompressed state

Bass Boost

Bass boost is an audio effect to boost or amplify low frequencies of the sound. It is comparable to a simple equalizer but limited to one band amplification in the low frequency range.  Note: this is a built in android effect.  GMMP is only able to turn it on/off and set the strength.

Tempo

Sets the tempo or playback speed of the audio output

Auto Pitch Correction

Automatically correct the pitch of the output when tempo is changed.  Pitch Correction

Virtualizer

An audio virtualizer is a general name for an effect to spatialize audio channels. The exact behavior of this effect is dependent on the number of audio input channels and the types and number of audio output channels of the device. For example, in the case of a stereo input and stereo headphone output, a stereo widening effect is used when this effect is turned on.

Amplifier

Will increase the audio loudness of the output.  Can cause clipping / distortion

GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 released and is now free!

GoneMAD Music Player 4.0 is now fully rolled out!  After 14 years since initial release as being a paid app, I've decided to try something different and switch to being free with ads.  The market is completely different nowadays compared to the early 2010s.  Ads are everywhere and users typically do not want to pay for apps / games / etc.  But don't worry, those users who previously purchased the unlocker or in app purchase unlock will continue to get an ad free experience.  New users will also have the option to purchase an in app purchase to permanently remove ads.   Note: There is a bug with 4.0 where users with the standalone unlocker may see ads when they first upgrade.  You typically fix this by just force stopping the app and restarting.  Ads should not come back after that.  Alternatively you can contact gonemadsoftware@gmail.com and I can help you out as well.  I have no intention on making users who already paid see ads.

4.1.6

4.1.6 has some fixes and one more significant change.  Previously if you decided to turn off the metadata text on the album grid so it only shows the artwork, this would force the same displayed metadata on views like artists -> albums.  Some users preferred to show a list of albums instead of the grid when filtering by artist / album artist / etc.  You can now set the metadata independently between the top level view and the filtered view like the images below. 4.1.6 (2025-12-12): Filtered album, artist, and albumartist list views displayed metadata can now be set independent of the top level list Prompt new users to add audio folders if less than 10 files detected in library Updated translations Fixed issue where multi folder albums scanner setting being off would still group albums in diff folders Fixed rare case where a tab would not load when using a very short custom tab name Fixed hebrew translation not showing up correctly on some devices Fixed bug where app op...
