Music Assistant Server is the core backend for Music Assistant, a free and open-source music library manager for local and online music sources. It connects streaming services, local files, metadata providers, and many speaker ecosystems into one centralized music system. The server is designed to run on an always-on device such as a Raspberry Pi, NAS, Intel NUC, or similar home server. It can work as a standalone product, but it is especially tailored for Home Assistant users who want automation, voice control, and smart-home playback workflows. Music Assistant supports features such as library matching, metadata enrichment, gapless playback, crossfade, volume normalization, synchronized playback, announcements, and queue transfers. It is a strong choice for users who want one organized media layer across different music services and playback devices.
