Open Cubic Player-Groove, the terminal Way!


Open Cubic Player provides you with a unique music playback experience.It plays your music in the UNIX terminal.It has been ported from DOS to UNIX.Open Cubic Player can be installed from the 'Synaptic Package Manager'.


After installation,launch 'Open Cubic Player' from the 'Sound And Video' menu.

Now,select a directory containing music files from the list provided.Press 'enter' to start playback of a music file.



The top of the playback window displays the track information.The highlight of the 'Open Cubic Player' is the spectrum analyser composed of #,*,= and some other symbols that is displayed during the music playback.



The spectrum analyser looks good but on the other hand ,there are hardly any options available.I even could not figure out a 'pause' option.There seems to be no way of getting back to the initial directory selection menu.Configuration file can be modified by using the ALT + C combination at the initial window.
