SoundSync Mini Player
The player on its own — no syncing, no transcoding.
SoundSync Mini Player is the player half of SoundSync as its own installable app. It plays a folder of local audio or streams tracks straight from SoundCloud, with a real play queue, shuffle, seek, volume, and audio output device selection. Because it carries no transcoding toolchain, the installer is a fraction of the size of the full app.
This page is a practical briefing for SoundSync Mini Player. It covers what the tool does in plain terms, any outside helpers it works with, the real things to know first, and clear next steps if it fits what you need.
What it does
The features that make SoundSync Mini Player useful inside the rooms it lives in.
Player only, much smaller
Bundles just what streaming needs and leaves the transcoding toolchain out, so the installer is a fraction of the full app's size.
Real play queue
Play next, add to queue, and reorder while playing. Shuffle has an explicit on/off state rather than a hidden toggle.
Local files or streaming
Play any folder you point it at, or stream a track directly from SoundCloud.
Picks up a full install automatically
If the full SoundSync app is installed, the Mini Player reads its download folder and monitored sources — read-only, it never changes them. On its own, you choose a folder from its tray menu.
Output device selection
Choose which audio output device plays, plus seek, volume, and continuous playback.

- The two apps are a pair but neither requires the other.
