[Feature Requests] Audio Path improvements, DSD to PCM conversions, etc.

<< < (4/4)

Great topic.

On a related note, it would be great if the conversion from a SACD ISO to individual DSD/DSF files were converted fully as DSD type files instead of being converted to PCM and then back to DSD file types.

By way, I always thought that when converting DSD to PCM it is a good idea to leave the sampling rate below 100khz.  As I understand it, DSD moves some analog conversion artifacts to the 100 khz and above range.   So there is some residual non musical noise at those higher frequencies.

There are several options for filters to remove the high frequency noise.  Any of them will remove the noise. It is a personal choice as to which one you use. The Safe filter is the default I believe. Unless you turn the option off you should not have any problems. Audio Path should show you what filter is active.
