Features

Everything you need to enjoy your whole collection

A library that keeps itself up to date

Pick your music folders once. Groovex watches them, adds new songs and groups everything into albums, folders and playlists.

Lyrics

Read lyrics next to the playing song, add or edit them and save them right into the music file.

Timeline

Mark sections of a song — intro, chorus — and click to jump there. Timelines are stored in the file tags.

10-band equalizer

An equalizer from 31 Hz to 16 kHz with presets like Pop, Rock, Vocal, Strong bass… plus a dedicated bass boost.

Mini player

Shrink the window into a small player that stays on top: cover, title, play / pause and skip while you work.

Edit song info

Edit title, artist, album, year, genre and cover art — for one song or for a whole album at once.

Save as new

Cut part of a song into a new file without losing quality. On Windows it also exports MP3 and iPhone M4R ringtones.

Keyboard friendly

Ctrl+K opens search for songs and commands, and every shortcut can be remapped. Media keys and the system media controls work too.

Frequently asked questions

Is Groovex free?

Yes. Groovex is free, has no ads and needs no account.

Can Groovex replace Groove Music?

That is what it was made for: play the music already on your computer by album, folder and playlist, plus lyrics, timelines, an equalizer and a mini player. On Windows you can make Groovex the default player right from its Settings.

Which formats does Groovex play?

MP3, FLAC, WAV, M4A, M4R and OGG.

Which operating systems does Groovex support?

Windows 10 / 11 (x64), macOS on Apple silicon, and Ubuntu / Debian.

Does Groovex upload my music or data?

No. Groovex has no account, collects no usage data and does not connect to the internet. Your library, settings and play queue stay on your computer.

Does Groovex change my music files?

Only when you edit something: lyrics, timelines and song info are written into the file tags. Removing a folder from the library only removes the songs from the list — the files stay on disk.
