Music Player

Without installing additional media player software, you can conveniently play music on Audio Station 2 using the compact music player. Play and listen to music simultaneously from a web browser (streaming mode), USB speakers (USB mode) or via a media renderer. Streaming mode supports playing music in MP3 or M4A format, and internet radios in MP3 format.

The music player displays detailed information on the current song, including the song's title, album, artist, and duration. Insert an album picture in the music folder to display it as the music plays. The queue panel beneath the music player shows the current playlist. Jump from music streaming mode to USB mode or media renderer with a click. Play music simultaneously in all three modes is possible. The shuffle button and the repeat button give you greater flexibility to your listening experience.

View your music collection by category or let Audio Station 2 do the selection with the Random100 option. Browse albums and songs by list, icon, or cover flow. Music lovers with vast song collection will find the quick search function handy with the search-as-you-type feature.
