Colibri v1.9.1 macOS

TNT | 08 August 2019 | 18 MB

Native Lossless Audio for macOS

A refreshingly new addition to the audio player scene. Colibri is a native macOS audio player built from scratch on top of the award-winning BASS technology. Colibri supports cristal-clear bit-perfect playback of all popular lossless and lossy audio formats, uses only a tiny amount of computing power and offers a clean and intuitive user experience.

Colibri 1.9.1 Changelog:

ENHANCEMENTS

• Updated codebase to Swift 5
• Settings -> Output now better fits all kHz entries
• Volume is now automatically raised to 100% for DSD files when DoP/DoPA mode is selected and restored to previous volume level for non-DSD files (and PCM mode)
• Unsupported DST encoded DSD and DTS encoded WAV files will now show proper Unsupported Codec error messages
• added an alternate fallback method for Automatic Sample Rate Switching for stubborn DACs (Colibri uses it automatically when needed)
• Finder sorting order is used to enqueueing files to the Playlist
• Playlist will be rendered with system default monospace font when available (macOS 10.11 and up)
• added a ‘Use Default SoundFont’ option for MIDI files to the right-click context menu of the Playlist
• removing the default SoundFont will automatically set the next available SoundFont as the default
• if the SoundFont list is empty, then the first SoundFont will automatically be marked as the default
• removing a SoundFont only causes playback restart if the currently played song is affected by the removal
• importing a new SoundFont will automatically set it as the default
• new switchable option in Settings -> Playlist: “Dragging to the Playlist via Mouse / Trackpad”:
  • songs will be added at pointer position (insert)
  • songs will be added at the end of the list (append, like before)
• added ‘Permanent Pause’ to Settings -> Behavior (Off, by default):
  • pause will ‘hold’ until the Play button is pressed again
  • switching to a different song will ‘arm’/prepare the song for playback
  • seeking repositions the playhead and it will play audio from the selected spot once unpaused
  • removing songs from the playlist does not affect the paused state
• added ‘Auto-Play’ to Settings -> Behavior (On, by default):
  • On: Colibri automatically plays the next song
  • Off: Colibri stops when the current song ends
• Playlist Columns have been rewritten from scratch for improved stability: see Settings -> Columns
• Columns are now sortable:
  • click on the header once to sort playlist by that column
  • clicking once again switches between Ascending/Descending sorting
  • sorting is supported across all columns
• added new Columns:
  • Length, kHz, Codec, Year, Track Number, Disc Number, Composer and Bit Depth
• Playlist Columns can now have vertical and horizontal Grids:
  • they help in finding the columns boundaries during reordering and resizing
  • Grids can be toggled on/off in Settings -> Themes
  • a color picker has been added to Settings -> Themes for the Grid
• new Loop option ‘Random Round Robin’ in Settings -> Playlist:
  • each song in the Playlist will be played once per “round”
  • when all songs were played once, a new “round” begins
  • removing a song causes the “round”
  • double-clicking on a song does not reset the “round”
  • a great way to have a balanced, random playback order
• monospace system fonts are now used in both the Title bar and Status bar (10.11 and up)
