What is WACUP?
WACUP (which can be pronounced as wakeup or wac-up or however you prefer it in your native tongue) is designed to work only with the patched Winamp 5.666 release to provide bug fixes, updates of existing features and most importantly new features with the goal to eventually become it's own highly Winamp compatible media player.
WACUP makes use of the benefits of Winamp being heavily based on a plug-in system so new plug-ins can add additional features as well as allowing replacements to be created which provide better implementations over the plug-ins natively included with Winamp.
Unlike the official Winamp, this community project is active and highly motivated, because it is driven by user requirements instead of commercial interest. Now boasting new features for the modern age of streaming from various media sites, and even the old days of chip and tracker tunes with hugely extended format support, using the newest codecs available. Pre-equipped with the functionality to stream your own radio feeds and be your own home DJ. Essential tools such as the waveform display, big clock and extended playlist management make this an ideal tool for semi-pro DJs.
Where licencing is available, all updated components are being made available as Open Source code.









Comments and Reviews
WACUP is Winamp woken up and pumped with steroids. Feature rich and flexible with a clear focus on the future.
It's everything Winamp ever did (including all of its plugin supports) without all the issues that plague Winamp these days, and with better default UI skins too!
I like using the winamp skins while listening to radio & audio files. The only problem is not all the radio stations still work.
No corporate BS and it's completely free!
It is the only place where winamp is being properly updated and maintained.
It's what Winamp would have been if it stayed in development. It features auto updates and other modern features but the same Winamp experience.
Works way better than other music players. Awesome visualisations. Light on system resources. Great for managing collections and playlists. As a long-time WinAmp user who was looking for a decent maintained alternative, WACUP does exactly what I need and way more on top.
