SoundWave: Hi-Res & DSD Player

🎧 SoundWave — the bit-perfect offline player for people who care how music sounds. 100% offline. No ads, no tracking, no account, no internet permission. Your library, your device, nothing else. 🎵━━━ USB EXCLUSIVE MODE (BIT-PERFECT) ━━━ The feature this app was built for. Plug in a USB DAC, flip one switch, and SoundWave takes exclusive control of it — your music streams to the DAC exactly as it was mastered, bit for bit. How it works: Android normally routes all audio through its system mixer, which resamples everything to one shared sample rate and applies software volume — your 44.1 kHz FLAC gets resampled, your 24-bit file gets truncated. In USB Exclusive mode, SoundWave talks to the DAC directly over USB (USB Audio Class 2), bypassing the Android audio stack completely. The DAC's own clock paces the stream, the file's native sample rate and bit depth are preserved, and nothing touches the samples in between. If your DAC has a format indicator, you'll see it follow each track. • PCM: 16 and 24-bit, all rates your DAC supports (44.1 / 48 / 88.2 / 96 / 176.4 / 192 / 352.8 / 384 kHz) • Native DSD: DSD64 and DSD128 delivered as DoP — your DAC decodes true 1-bit DSD • Volume: your phone's volume buttons drive the DAC's own hardware volume over USB, so the digital stream stays untouched. Starts at a safe 50% when you enable the mode. • Honest by design: EQ, crossfeed, ReplayGain, upsampling and speed are bypassed in this mode — bit-perfect means nothing gets to touch the audio, including us. Known limits (we'd rather tell you upfront): 32-bit files play at their full depth only if the DAC exposes a 32-bit interface; DSD256 and above exceed the DoP rate of most portable DACs and fall back to high-quality PCM conversion; the mode is opt-in per session (off at every launch) and needs the DAC connected; stereo only. Tested extensively on USB Audio Class 2 dongles — if your DAC misbehaves, tell us and we'll chase it. ━━━ AN AUDIOPHILE TOOLKIT (NORMAL MODE) ━━━ • True parametric EQ — per-band frequency, gain, Q and filter type, with AutoEQ profile import for your exact headphones, plus 2 save slots • Crossfeed for fatigue-free headphone listening • ReplayGain (track/album) with pre-amp • Software upsampling (2× / 4×) and sample-rate matching • Format chip on Now Playing showing the real decoded codec, sample rate and bit depth — plus an output chip showing where the audio is actually going ━━━ A REAL LIBRARY ━━━ • Albums, artists (multi-artist tag splitting), folder browser, playlists with M3U import/export and auto-export • Smart playlists: Most / Recently Played, Recently Added, Never Played • Tag editor, album art editor, scan skip list ━━━ AND THE ESSENTIALS ━━━ Sleep timer with "finish the song", playback speed, home-screen widget, Android Auto, AMOLED black theme, resume on launch. ━━━🔒 ZERO DATA COLLECTION━━━ SoundWave does not — and cannot — phone home: • No analytics SDK • No advertising SDK • No crash reporters • No internet permission at all • No account, no login, no signup • Verifiable: the app works fully with airplane mode on Your listening habits stay on your device.
