Some notes are dropped out when playback on MC28
dannylin:
I haven't changed any settings but just upgrade to the latest MC28 build from an earlier build.
When playing back the same song, be it 5644kbps DSD file, or 44.1Hz flac, I noticed that some notes are dropped out which is not right.
It doesn't seem to have such an issue in earlier builds. But this did happen not only in the latest MC28 build, and at least 2 or 3 earlier builds.
Not sure why.
I just uninstall my MC28 before installing the current build. Also remove the library and re-import it.
Any clue what would cause this?
My setup:
macOS Monterey 12.0.1 (happens on Big Sur as well, I just upgraded to 12.0.1 and the problem is still there)
MBP 2017, 4 Thunderbolt 3 ports
8GB
Intel Core i5 3.1GHz
JimH:
Reinstall MC.

If reinstalling doesn't solve the issue,
What is your audio output device?
Note that Big Sur and Monterey will be slower on a 2017 MBP than Catalina was. You may need to tweak some of the buffering settings in MC's audio device settings.

Thanks Bob. I've tried everything I can do.
Did a full uninstall again today, and reinstalled MC28. The problem still persists.
My audio output device is my earphone - the first time I hear the notes dropped, I thought it was my earphone's problem. But then I tried another two, it's the same.
Re: tweak some of the buffering settings in MC's audio device settings.
Is there anywhere especially I can do? I've turned off subwoofer to silent. Leave prebuffering to default (6s), also tried Memory playback to 'Load decoded file in memory'. But it did not seem to help.

I would not use memory playback.
In MC’s audio device settings, turn off integer mode and exclusive mode if they are on.
Under device options in the same area try increasing the buffering there.
