Dropsound is a sound-playing app, made for digital music-makers (and co-developed by one). It is an attempt to fill the void left by SoundApp, which did not move on to Mac OS X along with everyone who used it. It uses Quicktime to play sound files (including WAV's, AIF's, MP3's, etc.) dropped onto it. It can queue up multiple files and play through them one by one. It also has some synthesizing abilities and a 'quit when done' feature.
More info about this new version available in MM softwares section.
