  Where are you guys getting these cool graphs?  Are they plugins for Deadbeef or are they part of it hiding from me?

The top seekbar It's a plugin called waveform seekbar, the right plugin is infobar. All the rest is native from Deadbeef, and all was put together using the design mode.

If you're on Arch Linux install these from the AUR:
deadbeef-plugin-musical-spectrum-git
deadbeef-plugin-spectrogram-git
deadbeef-plugin-waveform-git
 
They're from this guy https://github.com/cboxdoerfer

So how exactly can I get 24 bit 88.2khz sound, which is an upconversion of 16bit44.1khz, out of my GeekOut 450 on linux? I know I can set the audio on Pulse configuration file, but heard it's not the best way to go about it. I don't seem to have the asound or asoundrc file for alsa. I have asround.conf_jack and _oss, but not just .conf.  I'm on Linux Mint 17.1 KDE.

If you are using MPD, I find this : http://www.diyaudio.com/oldwiki/index.php?page=LINUX+Audio+MusicPlayerDaemon.

Can MPD be used with Google Play streaming music? EDIT: Guess that's what GMusicProxy is for.

No you can't MPD for a streaming flux, isn't a audio driver, but a music player.
You can use this link if you are using ALSA http://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Asoundrc
 
Or just modifie this file $HOME/.asoundrc
 
pcm.device{
        format S32_LE or S24_LE (all format available http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/alsa-lib/group___p_c_m.html#gaa14b7f26877a812acbb39811364177f8)
        rate (your rate)
        type hw
        card (your card number)
        device (the output port used)
}
 
pcm.!default{
    type plug
    slave.pcm "device"
}

vim ~/.asoundrc
 
^ replace vim with your editor of choice :)
Then insert the above with the gaps filled in for your set up.
 
hope that helps.
 

Not sure what you mean by editor. I'm a total newb. Feel free to share screenshots. Thank you much btw.

LinUX has several text editors available, depending on distribution.  Most have Visual Editor Improved, /usr/bin/vim, and/or GNU EMACS, /usr/bin/emacs.  Distros with GNOME have a Text Editor, /usr/bin/gedit.  The Advanced LinUX Sound Architecture Project has a comprehensive wikipage on asoundrc.  As an example, were I doing a direct program for the Realtek® ALC-889A sound chip on the Hot Rod gPC's™ Gigabyte® GA-MA78GM-S2HP, ./.asoundrc might look similar to the example below (thanks, kazcou, for the template):

A list of available devices can be retrieved with the command:  aplay -l dump
