Any good Winamp alternatives?

First off, it flips my special characters into Cyrillic (probably because it's Russian), and it won't let me adjust my computer volume where it usually is—it's like the PC isn't even responding. Anyway, here’s a way to make sure there’s no gap between tracks 😳kay:
Windows Media Player honestly isn't great either, so I downloaded this but I'm not impressed! For me, the best thing is still VirtualDJ. It sounds amazing when you really tweak those bass, mid, and treble knobs, and that sync mixer is absolute madness, though I don't get much time to sit and mix for long 😛 :cheers:
Edit: Okay, look, AIMP2 doesn't actually have bad sound quality, it's pretty good, but I just can't stomach that Cyrillic mess. Now I can only listen to English songs (though, let's be real, there's no point in having special accented letters in VirtualDJ anyway 😛 )
P.s. Those VU meters are wild hahaha, especially when they take up the whole screen ;-)
To be totally honest with you, I've never been particularly obsessed with our specific accented characters 😁. I've kind of just gotten used to working on a machine where you have to use the English Alphabet, mostly because it's unfortunately the most useful international standard in the computing world... Since AIMP is purely a Russian creation, it makes sense why this happens :d but I think I saw a patch somewhere to fix it. If I find it again, I'll shoot you a PM if you're interested.
A little offtopic: I know it has nothing to do with our famous accented letters, but it definitely relates to that American Windows patch issue. Once, I went to check out a guy's computer (he'd bought a bunch of spyware and other random junk). My first move was to check Add/Remove Programs to see what was installed, so I started looking for the Control Panel... and it wasn't there... I searched for "cp," I was ready to throw the whole thing in the trash... I was totally lost until I realized I'd been staring at a window labeled "Control Board" for a minute and a half 🤣 hahahah. From then on, I told myself I'm never touching a computer with an American OS setup again, no chance 😁 stick to the old school and live long 🙏
