Title: DSP Settings for iPhone
Post by: Ripman on January 02, 2025, 09:49:46 am
Hi and HNY. Really great sw that I have used for about 10 years now.


1. Versions: Win10, MC 33.0.30 64-bit, JRemote 3.42

Here are my current DSP settings - pretty normal.

2. Summary: I am playing a mch aiff file through JRMC_33 to my Pionner BDP-80 Elite, which drives my Bose surround system. The Pioneer is connected to a Vizio TV via HDMI. I use JReomte on my iPhone 14 pro max to control things. Works great.

I was turning everything down for the night, and I noticed that JRemote had a "play on this device" button, so I selected to route the mch audio to my iPhone.


3. Problem: If I play anything from my desktop where MC runs, I can use the DSP settings to down-sample and mix-down audio so that my computer can output it as best possible (e.g., mch => stereo; > 192K => 192K).

How can I do the same for my iPhone so that if I play a mch file, it gets properly down-sampled to 24-48 and mixed-down to stereo, which is what an iPhone can handle?


Thanks and best.

I recently got my first iPhone, a 16 Pro (I know!) and use JRemote as well.  I use it as a remote to a PC running MC when I'm listening through an analog amp and floor speakers.  I also set up a zone should I want to play to the iPhone itself.  The zone brings everything down to 24/44.1, which I believe is the highest bit rate the phone can handle.  A neat setup I use with my IPhone is a "c" to USB cable into a combo headphone amp/dac so I can enjoy 24/192K music on headphones without the need for a PC tethered to the setup.  JRemote passes the file through the iPhone by-passing the phones DAC right to the headphone amp.  Sounds as good as any set-up I have.

Hi. Thanks for that info. I forgot about zones. I will review my understanding of DSP settings and then re-do things with zones. Thanks again. Best….
