Top AIMP Plugins

AIMP is a popular music player that has the look and feel of a modern Winamp in my opinion. The player has been updated to version 4 recently, featuring a new interface (you can restore the classic interface) and other changes.

The player has a plugin system that works similar to that of Winamp and, what may surprise new users, it even supports Winamp plugins to a degree.

AIMP ships with several plugins, but you can install new ones that are made available on the official website to extend the player's functionality further.

The following top list lists plugins for the player that you may find interesting. Plugins are installed usually by extracting archives they are delivered in to the local system, and copying the resulting folder into the AIMP/Plugins directory on the system.
