User Reviews

• Good Program-just be careful on the install

  jgparmeleNovember 14, 2015

  Pros

  It has great features, loads quickly, and is less buggy than wmp.

  Cons

  Be careful on the install to not include the bloatware in "Express Settings".

• Almost perfect...

  lrdsunbaneSeptember 27, 2014

  Pros

  Does almost everything it claims to do perfectly - easy to use, great layout, simple controls.

  Cons

  One of the big things I was hoping to find was a crossfade option. There is an option for it in GOM audio, but it doesn't work right - when I deselect the "crossfade to next song" option, it actually crossfades... but not to the next one after that - I have to close settings, re-open settings, re-enable crossfade, close settings, re-open settings again, and deselect it one last time in order to crossfade from song-to-song-to-song :(

• Great program does what it's supposed to

  MaklarreatzSeptember 16, 2014

  Pros

  Lightweight on older machines, high speed loading large playlists, intuitive navigational system.

  Cons

  Weird "default" audio that plays on start-up. Easy enough to get rid of by the user though.

  Summary

  I stumbled onto the GOM audio program a few weeks ago on a forum. I've used the GOM media player for years now, so I wanted to give the audio player a try too. Just like the GOM player before it, it is a no fuss, lightweight, do anything program. It'll play every format of audio I've got and thensome, starts and stops in a flash, and never once affects other programs I have running. It's designed in a way that anyone familiar with comparable programs, like Windows Media player, will be able to pick it up and go immediately without any learning curve. The only "fault" I could find was this bizarre "default" audio file it comes packaged with. Evidently it's a start-up sound akin to what WinAmp does, but it's only supposed to play once. Mine played on startup every time though, but it was easy enough to just go into the program, delete the file, and cruise on without it. GOM labs and Gretech have built an exceptional audio platform- so if you're looking to upgrade from Windows Media Player to something better and less resource-heavy, GOM has you covered.

• Simple & lightweight

  fwupowDecember 11, 2013

  Pros

  Simple & easy to use, Nice equalizer

  Cons

  Way to small and the size is nonadjustable. I like to see the album artwork that I've worked so hard to include in all my mp3 files and this app displays it the size of a postage stamp and you can't enlarge it, no how, no way. You can't save a playlist! You can't display lyrics. There are no skins available to jack up the size of the main window and album art.

• Small, Clean, LOVE It!

  DarkWolf74July 17, 2013

  Pros

  It's not bloated like other players. Simply streaming audio support. Clean, small, and works.

  Cons

  I wish it had a Shoutcast/Icecast directory to browse, play and add to the broadcast list. I have my faves, but I like to play random stations. Doing so in client would be great. A rudimentary media library would be useful, but I keep all my media sorted in a clean directory structure, so I know exactly how to find the files I want to play, regardless.

  Summary

  If you're tired of all the bloat, this is a great audio player.

• Works well

  KnurdleJuly 10, 2013

  Pros

  Handles every music file format I've thrown at it. Nice easy-to-understand user interface.

  Cons

  One minor one. I use it to play music while I'm trying to fall asleep. Has a volume normalization setting that works pretty well, but it plays the first second or so at the song's regular volume level, then quiets it down. Can be a little startling with certain songs.

  Summary

  Easy to setup, easy to use, seems to use fewer system resources than WinAmp.

  Pros

  very simple but powerful audio player. GOM has better audio quality than any other player , great for making fast playlists and for listening the internet radio , great equalizer , and it takes less resources than WMplayer .

  Cons

  only two skins :(

  Summary

  <<install it , mess a bit with its settings, and you will not want to use any other audio player than GOM ,I promise >>
