Hi. I'm trying to troubleshoot this error. I use Zen DAC v2 with the latest drivers and firmware from iFi. I followed a PDF guide on how to setup Foobar for DSD playback. When I try to play a DSD512 file, I get: "Unrecoverable playback error: Sample rate of 22579200 Hz not supported by this...

Hi there I was just wondering what the "proper" audio settings for windows would be. lets take my bifrost 2 as an example. On the spec sheets it can go up to 24/192 for usb, Is that what i should set windows audio settings to? This is kinda a bad example given its a multibit dac and I could also...

I got the FiiO K3 (the new model) , it can play dsd64 and dsd128 audio files with Foobar2000 just fine, but I get a playback error "Unrecoverable playback error: Unsupported stream format: 705600 Hz / 32-bit / 2 channels" for DSD256 files. Screenshots of my configuration. Any ideas what may...

So I downmixed one of my albums that were 5.1 to stereo. The original 5.1 version had a dynamic range of 11-13 using TT Dynamic Range meter. However, when I downmixed them, the stereo versions had a dynamic range of only 6-8. Is this normal or is my downmixing software (foobar) bad at downmixing?

Recently, I've come across a problem with UAPP (USB Audio Pro Player) namely I cannot establish a connection with my media server which is being streamed through UPnP on foobar2000 from my pc when using a different network such as 4G and or other Wi-Fi networks. With foobar2000 on android it is...

I have seen many forms that claim to have an "optimized" version of foobar for better sound. Or have a "optimized OS" for music playback. In order to know that the "optimization" is not done via some EQ buried deep-down in the process, I'd like to seek some method to compare the raw PCM of a...

I don't know or understand what has happened, but I get no sound using any type of output. This change just happened within the past two days. I do get sound using any other music player (Windows Media Player, MPC, VLC, etc) but I have a huge music library and pretty much prefer Foobar if...

This is my first post so if I do something wrong, I apologize in advance. I recently just purchased a Fiio Q1 MKII and noticed that it supported DSD so I thought I would try it out because I could notice a large difference the first time I heard a SACD. I downloaded a Santana album from...

Found a plugin you guys may find interesting. Search (ctrl+f) "relife" on the page. Use it with foorbar's VST adapter, and set it to 3-peak mode. It seems to improve layering a lot, and reduces some of the roughness in vocals caused by dynamic range compression (instrumentals crowding in on...

Hey all. I have a DAC capable of 32 bit, DSD-enabled audio, but Foobar refuses to let me do more than 16 bit, even with FLAC files I know qare 24 or 32 bit. I've also tried it with my other DAC, which is 24-bit capable, with the same results. Tries ASIO as well, hoping this would change it...

Hello. I am the owner of a Marantz HD-DAC1, which supports up to DSD 5.6Mhz. I am using it to output music from my desktop PC. I have purchased an album from NativeDSD.com in order to test out the DSD-capabilities, and I am using Foobar2000 as the media player. I have installed and set up the...
