DeliX Plugin
(Taken from the DeliX web site)

XMP-DELIX is a plugin for XMPlay for playing music in many various (often exotic) Amiga formats. DeliX acts as a wrapper plugin allowing XMPlay to use EaglePlayer and DeliTracker players (plugins). To achieve this, some Amiga hardware is emulated - the MC68000 processor, Paula sound chip and CIA adapters. DeliX also clones Amiga software - some functions of the AmigaOS and obviously EaglePlayer/DeliTracker API.

This plugin is on a very early stage of development and should be considered experimental software with tons of bugs, yet it features perfect Paula sound chip emulation, fast CPU emulation by Starscream library, quality playback with surround sound and support for 121 music formats:-

External Players
Note on new Wanted Team players. The file xmp-delix.dat is in reality a standard ZIP archive, so adding new players is pretty straightforward.

Be aware that DeliX doesn't support audio.device and ahi.device yet, so players using those two won't work for now.
