Laptop Specifications To Play DSD Files

<< < (7/13) > >>

DJLegba:
Set memory playback to none (ie turn it off). Copy the file to your C: drive. Play it from there. If you have a USB hub between your laptop and the DAC remove it and connect the DAC directly to the laptop's USB port. If you are using an "audiophile" USB cable replace it with a standard USB cable. If you have any kind of USB "cleanup" device between the laptop and the DAC remove it.

Hi DJLegba, Thanks for the suggestion, I did try turn off memory playback but no change, Hi Res still buffing, file is copied to the laptop drive, using MC to play on the laptop, connected with a standard short usb direct to an ATC CDA 2 which is set as per ATC recommendations, Audio Path and settings images as per previous post.

just to test: check "Output Format" in DSP Studio and see what the result will be. No memory playback.

SKY1950:
Hi AGAWA, well I set as your suggestions and checking output format has played Hi Res fine, what does the tick box change ?  I will do more testing tomorrow just to be sure

AGAWA:
I do not know. I looked at ATC's settings , they say that with this box unticked no processing will be performed.  But I guess that DSP Studio settings decide what will be done with the signal. Creators of MC will be able to answer this question.
MC is very complex and who knows what are the insights.
I had several issues solved by just experimenting with the settings.
Good luck. Be brave. And you will be rewarded with superb sound.

My guess is that only when the box is ticked (any of them) then the settings come into force.
