The same bit-perfect audio, the same WASAPI exclusive output, the same FLAC and DSD support — delivered in an interface built after 2005, with every audiophile feature already inside.
Auris includes these out of the box. No component packs, no DLLs, no forum threads from 2011.
If you are looking for specific types of content or platforms tailored to local audiences:
foobar2000 needs the Equalizer component, Peace APO, or a parametric plugin stack. Auris ships with a true parametric equaliser and five thousand AutoEQ presets for headphones, ready to apply.
foobar2000’s interface was modern in 2005. Auris is built for the way Windows looks and works today — dark theme, dynamic album art, keyboard-friendly, sensible defaults.
foobar2000 requires the WASAPI Output Support component, selected per output device. Auris enables exclusive mode with a single toggle, and remembers it.
In foobar2000 you install mp3tag, fb2k-tools, or an AcoustID plugin and configure scripts. Auris detects tempo and musical key of every track during library scanning — automatically.
Feature by feature. Auris covers out of the box what foobar2000 asks you to assemble.
