How many consecutive pages is this same exact question and fix going to continue?

common sense says:
1) people should search better, i was just lazy
2) if this is a common question, then the answer should be posted in the OP, problem solved
Haha. Most people don't even read the OP. Hence all the questions "How do I install this?". And "This zip won't flash. I keep getting errors.". Amusing, really.

Laziness is all it is. Maybe someone could make a video but they probably won't watch it.

You are right! I don't know when that was removed from the OP, because it used to be there. I think when compatible mode was introduced is when it happened. I really LOVE the new and most definitely improved OP, but agree with you that this particular bit should be included again. PowerAmp is one of the most popular players used and this particular Q&A has repeatedly come up.
Cheers

If someone made a video you know that would just cause more problems for the idiots who can't read. I can see the questions now. Why doesn't my phone doesn't look like that? I didn't understand the video how do I...?
Even if someone magically appeared and installed this for everyone there would be people asking when the genie will appear!

I was using power amp for a while there too, but there's just too many EQ features and stuff to get in the way of this beautiful mod.
I have switched over Vanilla Music since then, and I couldn't be happier.. it includes great looking widgets, Last.fm scrobbling and a folder browser for easily finding media. It works perfect with V4A and you don't have to worry about obtaining a donate version to unlock features. You can find it on F-Droid, along with Simple Scrobbler and JLyr, a lyric fetching app.

I was just wondering about that myself, as I'm using Poweramp and have been for a long time. It's always given me nice music with the features I like, but since I've discovered the Viper mod, I am now wondering if the settings could conflict with each other. I'm really a stickler about my music.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using XDA Premium HD app
True true, then when a new version(s) of V4A come out or better yet that sweet ass GUI, even more questions. I don't have patience to repeat myself, which is why I won't make a video for this amazing app.

Yes they can definitely conflict, which is the reason I turn off all of the poweramp EQ's. You can leave them on if you want, you just need to run V4A in compatible mode, which I choose not to. But the other user (@calikevin) comment is accurate, with V4A you can pick whatever player you like the looks of & let V4A do all of its magic. I just really like poweramp especially the new widgets since the latest update. It's all a matter of personal taste tho.

I use poweramp. Dvc is off. Equalizer & tone are off. Music fx is on. Viper fx & xhifi are the only sound effects with Viper fx always. No other dsp installed. Set fx to taste then xhifi. I've used other dsps & for myself this setup is the best.

having viper on while listening to music, battery drains so damn fast
I think playing the music without Viper would consume more battery than normal too..

Yes, given the level and quality of this mod, it is very upsetting/tiring to see the same questions come back all the time (while they are answered in the OP) ... anyway!
I discovered this mod a few weeks ago, and it is wonderful. I also observe that it is impacting the battery. Maybe it could be more optimized, but given how fast new features appear, we can assume that the dev team is already hard at work.
I feels that best settings of fx, and notably the IRS, really depends on the type of music (as expected), but also of the quality of the files. My prefered convoler are DBX soft, Urei, JoeMeek soft, GoldMike w Flair. But with those it is hard to listen to badly encoded music ... it sound really worse, because of the level of details
Some of my mp3 also produce a heavy background noise, while others are perfect.@zhuhang. Thanks! Are you a developer of this mod or you just forward it in english? does developers follows this thread ?

ViPER4Android FX
FX is the main control panel of ViPER’s Audio with all popular ViPER’s Audio settings.
ViPER4Android XHiFi (Stopped)
XHiFi has less settings compare to FX. It has superior audio reconstruction which mainly used for restoring lossy audio quality.
FX Key Features
★ NEW: FET Compressor ★
New compressor / limiter simulating operation of FET circuits.
★ NEW: Quad-Channel Convolver ★
IRS support extends to 4-channels. *Requires special IRS files*
★ AnalogX ★
Richer and warmer sound by simulating the sound signature of pure class A amplifier. *v2.4.x and above+*
★ ViPER-DDC (Now Cuztomizable!) ★
Enjoy near HIFI sound on your headphones. *Not all models supported*
★ Spectrum Extension ★
Make your music sound lossless with enhanced high frequencies.
★ x86 Platform Support ★
Viper4Android supports x86 (Atom/Core i3/i5/i7) platforms.
★ USB/Dock effect Support ★
ViPER4Android supports USB/Dock audio output.
★ Speaker Optimization ★
First effect for speakers. Try it yourself.
★ Channel Pan ★
Controls left/right channel output. Its not very useful unless your headphone is imbalance or faulty one side. It will be a cure for you.
★ Differential Surround / Haas Effect ★
This is an old feature which ViPER520 had removed from FX in early days.
But after many users requesting it, ViPER520 bring it back to FX
More info on Haas Effect: http://www.mixcoach.com/creating-depth-the-haas-effect-2/
★ ViPER Fidelity Control ★
★ ViPER Bass ★
With different bass modes, you can have greater bass experience than before!
★ ViPER Clarity ★
With the latest Clarity mode selection, you can balance up heavy bass with high clarity audio that you can never imagine before!
★ Headphone Surround+ (VHS+) ★
With this VHS+, V4A made its way to achieve great surround technologies for Android.
★ Auditory System Protection (Cure Tech+) ★
With normal audio system, listening for more than three hours will feel fatigue, dizzy, tinnitus, irritated and other symptoms.
This is a normal reaction, heavy bass and high volume could cause permanent damage to the human auditory system, but other phenomena can restore through resting.
Viper as a listening experience professional will not ignore this problem. Therefore put a lot of effort to study how to make a "Healing" sound technology, just a small success. But thinking on how to let users experience it.
★ Convolver ★
When an Impulse Response Sample(IRS) is loaded, V4A will process the sound to show the same characteristics of the loaded sample. Through Convolution, samples with effects such as equalizer, surround, reverberation, tube etc can be loaded.
Download and extract IRS files to <storage>/ViPER4Android/Kernel/<paste files here>
★ FX Compatible Mode (Only in 4.x) ★
Compatible Mode supports large variety of music players and the players' own EQ/sound effects (system-provided/third party)
Therefore, you don't have to select V4A in Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose anything other than V4A. Just run V4A app and the effects will be working with anything else.
1. In option, switch to Compatible Mode. Reboot, done.
2. In Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose other than V4A.
3. Run V4A app and configure the settings then the effects will work together with the one you chose in Sound Settings.
