Capriccio for iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch

Considering the quality of this app, I'm surprised that we don't have a discussion about it at Head-Fi.

 

For those who don't know, it's a music player that can take FLAC, WAV, OGG, and AIFF on the iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch. The nice touch is that it has a 10-band equalizer, and there are multiple effects that can be layered on top of the equalizer.

 

In my opinions, despite the not so polished interface (it's not bad, by the way), the sound quality of the app is top notch. It's by far my favorite music player on the iPhone. It has completely replaced the iPod app to me.


So is anyone else here using it?

I have downloaded the free version and will try it later.

 

What is the difference between the free version and the paid version?

Other good apps are equalizer, Flacplayer, Sonicmaxpro, EQu, stereophonic.

Free is ad-supported, but as far as I can see, no real difference to the paid version. It might vampire your data plan, though.

I tried Flac Player. It was nice (I actually liked the interface), but it lacked an equalizer.

I also tried MyTunes, Equalizer and EQu, and they didn't support FLAC the last time I had them. MyTunes was particularly crash-prone.

 

I haven't tried the other apps mentioned, but compared to Flac Player, MyTunes, Equalizer, and EQu, I found Capriccio coming out on top in its initial release. Perhaps I should download the recent versions of Equalizer and EQu to compare.

I just got the paid version of Capriccio. I really like the SQ so far. Yeah, the UI is a bit 5th grader. Any idea how it reads album art? Can I just use the "folder.jpg/cover.jpg" method, or.. ?

I've downloaded Capriccio for the Ipad (just got an HD).  Anyway, the player is awesome but getting any help info is almost impossible.  How the heck do you set the EQ???
