The Moderno story
Moderno was born
from a love of listening.
Moderno was created by an audiobook enthusiast who wanted a more convenient player with a few features he could not find elsewhere. He keeps developing the player he wants to use every day.
Audiobook library
Your own audiobooks.
Browse them your way.
Quickly find the audiobooks you have started, those you have yet to play, and those you have finished. Choose a list or cover grid, sort your collection, and filter by listening status. Both layouts show the same library in different ways.
Grid view
Your collection of covers
The grid makes it easy to explore your collection and recognize audiobooks by their covers.
Chapters and metadata
Moderno reads information from files and folder names.
Keep things organized
Filters, sorting, and listening progress indicators.
Your own files
MP3, M4B, M4A, FLAC, and other supported formats.
Metadata recognition and editing
Author and title.
No manual entry.
Moderno analyzes audiobook folder names to help identify authors and album titles automatically. This is especially helpful when audiobook folders follow different naming conventions.
If the name is unusual and the algorithm cannot read it correctly, you can edit the author and album title yourself. The editor also lets you adjust chapter names.
Automatic recognition
Author and title extracted from folder names when their structure allows it.
Manual corrections
Edit the author and album title. You can also control how chapter names are displayed.
Consistent names throughout
Corrected details appear in the player, library, and statistics.
Playback and sound controls
Adjust the sound
and playback speed.
Choose chapters, skip through a recording, and set playback preferences for each audiobook. Adjust speed, tune the narrator’s voice, and boost quiet recordings.
Speed from 0.5× to 2.0×
Adjust playback speed in 0.05× steps. Moderno remembers the setting for each audiobook.
4-band or 6-band equalizer
Choose between two equalizer layouts, with settings saved separately for each audiobook.
Up to +10 dB boost
Extra volume for quiet recordings, with a soft limiter.

Extra conveniences
More control over
every audiobook.
Useful extras that make everyday listening easier.
Silence skipping and voice pitch
Choose one of three silence-skipping levels. You can also adjust the narrator’s pitch by ±10%, independently of playback speed. Pitch changes apply only to the current session.
Notes, bookmarks, and characters
Mark important passages, write down your thoughts, and keep a list of characters. Especially useful for long series and complex stories.
Skip intros and outros
Set segments to skip at the beginning and end of chapters. Moderno automatically skips repeated introductions and endings, and remembers the settings for each audiobook.
Lock player controls
Lock selected controls, such as the progress slider, chapter navigation, or seeking. Avoid accidental jumps while listening.
Auto-Rewind
Pick up where you left off.
Never lose the thread.
If you pause an audiobook and return later, Moderno rewinds by a set number of seconds. The rewind depends on the length of your break and your chosen intensity.
Only a short break?
The player rewinds a little to remind you of the last sentence.
Coming back after a few hours?
The longer your break, the farther back the player rewinds. This helps you remember what you last heard.
Choose how far to rewind
Select one of three rewind levels, or turn the feature off. Rewinding never goes beyond the current chapter.
