Lxmusic

Aqualung

Aqualung project

• I think this one is best suited for LXDE. It's simple, powerful, and lightweight. Written in pure C/gtk+ without additional desktop-dependent dependencies. (PCMan)
• John Thng: I have used and liked this player, as the sound quality output is excellent.

Gejengel

• This is yet another interesting music player. (PCMan)

Exaile

Exaile project

• Is it needed? I have not used it myself (Mario Behling)
• Thomas Chace: I tried it recently and it took forever and loads of CPU load to scan my library(14-15GBs). I eventually had to kill the process. Rhythmbox, however, wuickly scanned my library and was lighter on the CPU.
• David Sugar -1, between python dependencies and other things, it wanted to add over 170megs disk space to my minimal lxde install. I actually prefer Exaile over Rhytmbox, but not for Lubuntu at that cost :).

Rhythmbox

Rhythmbox project

• we also have LXMusic included already (Mario Behling)
• David Sugar can we get LXMusic running? I imagine we can, and if so, then I agree with Mario...

Consonance

Consonance project

• Shae Smittle suggests.

  • Similar interface to Rhythmbox
  • Developer left, may need to be branched by LXDE and updated there.

Asunder

Asunder project

• Shae Smittle suggests.

Audacity

Audacity project

• Do we need this? It is not included in Ubuntu by default.
• In regards to the goal of making lubuntu a tool for people in countries/regions with low bandwidth access, it would be a nice thing to have in order to become an independent radio producer (Mario Behling)
