NEW: SoX Resampling
kotani:
I have a question about re-sampling 44.1khz/16bit to something like 88.2khz or 176.4khz 24bit.
There are many arguments about whether there is a difference, and I can see that a lot of it depends on the what the DAC is doing after it receives the data stream, but that is under the assumption that there are no differences being made to the data besides the re-sampling.
The problem is, I use JRiver for volume leveling and also as a 6ch active xo (using the parametric eq), so the output is obviously not the same as the original data. When playing something like redbook 44.1khz/16bit, would it make sense to use the new sox feature to re-sample to something like 176.4khz first, before JRiver applies the xo filters and volume leveling? My mind seems to say yes, but I may not have a good understanding of the effects of the application of filters on extra bits (64bit in jriver internally) vs higher sample rates. Please enlighten me on this subject. Thank you!

Split some posts about upsampling. Please don't start off topic discussions here.

i dont know if somebody already reported this. :)
today i started to try the new sox upsampling. im upsampling from 44.1 to 48. and after a bunch of songs i noticed that the position bar at the top of standard view was already (or stil) halfway the song altough a new song was starting to play. so i tested a bit.
with sox on, after 20.12 minutes of music, the position bar was already 15 seconds in the next song still playing the previous song, before the next song started.
this does not happen when disabling sox for upsampling.
for when its important.
buffer is 6 seconds
not playing from memory
the files are played local from hd
latest build 22.0.18
playback to asio
did i forget something :)

I'm not sure this is the best place to post this, but Matt asked for folks with DSD256+ devices to try the new PCM2DSD settings last year and I never heard back when I reported problems with my Auralic Vega DAC. The iFi DSD DAC I have works fine with 4XDSD via ASIO but the Vega just times out. Who at JRiver can I ping about this problem?
Does anyone have an Auralic Vega? After offering units with DSD256 Auralic claims you can't use MC but need Foobar which is a very confusing statement to me.

Starting a new thread would be best.
