Using JSound
JSound is a considerably large program, which is understandable considering that it combines several applications that are typically found separately. However, the 90.1MB file installs and launches with relative ease.
When we launched the program for the first time, it required us to choose the destination path it had to use to copy files in the library. We didn’t like the default skin but were happy to find that it came with many skins from which we could choose our preference.
The user interface is separated into several parts with different functions:
Upper left – echoes what both left and right speakers play
Middle left – where you choose the files you want to play and how to handle them
Lower left – knobs for controlling volume, channels, bass and treble
Upper right – controls for adjusting play
Middle right – graphic visualization of what’s playing
Lower right – left and right channel graphic equalizers
Bottom – buttons for performing various functions and accessing different features, including settings, recording, radio, converter, effects and filter, CD ripper and presets among others
You can use the music downloader feature by typing artist and title, and the program will search multiple music sources online. Under Artist Info, you can find different details about a singer, including biography, blogs, images, videos, news and reviews. We changed the elaborate graphic equalizer by either choosing presets or adjusting individual slide bars.
We used JSound to listen to several online radio stations grouped into 24 categories, which were further divided into several sub-categories. The stations played smoothly although the program took relatively long to buffer compared to other Internet radio applications we have used.
On the other hand, JSound was on top of its game when it came to audio conversion. It converted the first file we tried so fast we had to play it to confirm it was really functional. Verdict
We found JSound to be a great free music player that could perform multiple functions well.
