Title: Need help setting up multichannel usb dac
Post by: margolbe on April 12, 2025, 11:40:16 am

Hi,

I just purchased the nuprime MCX-800AD 8 channel usb dac.

I am using it on one of the new mac mini4 pro devices.

I set it up based on some of the information I was able to cull, but I am not getting any sound.

I am including a photo of some of my settings.

Since I am running a 5.1.2 setup, I chose 5.1.4 during the setup process.

I also chose DSD under the settings since I have many multichannel dsf files.

Any advice on how to get this running would be very appreciated.

Go to Device settings... there and try disabling/enabling integer mode.

Tried this and still no sound.  By the way, able to get multichannel playback in both audirvana, jplay and roon.

You may need to go into DSP Studio > Output Format and setup your channels.

I didn't enable any dsd in DSP studio.  I did this in the earlier settings.

Under channels I picked 5.1.4 since 5.1.2 doesn't exist yet.

How should I use DSP studio?
