I had version 1.2.2, so it's great to have a newer version available in case I need to install components that aren't available for 1.2.2. Thanks!
 
Btw, great avatar! I saw KC on their last tour. Wow.

I managed to extract the DSP chain and apply it on the last Foobar version. It is pretty easy actually.
 
Yeah, King Crimson. Modern era heroes. I've seen Robert Fripp several times with various projects but I'm waiting for a proper KC tour.

I was thinking about figuring out how to "extract the DSP chain", but then had another drink and gave up lol.
 
So you did it and then posted the ZIP. Mighty kind of you! Thanks a lot.

Their current project is about as proper a KC project as you're going to get. I see they are getting pretty close to Italy in September!
 
Btw, I saw that you were in this thread. Worthwhile? I've been happily using the RPG's "laidback" config for a couple of years, but that thread looks interesting.

Yeah I was testing the "5.1 Headphone experience" but I got distortions using WASAPI event. If I play certain songs, expecially music with round basses like kauan's villiruusu, I hear crackling. I turned to this config and I noticed I don't get that problem.
 
Unfonrtunately I don't live in italy ATM eheh, Otherwise I would checked it out.
 
Later I post a zip file with the cfg files, so you can use it with the last foobar version.

Go to Preferences -> Shell Integration 
click the "Manage file type associations" at the top
a new window with audio file associations should appear
select file types you want f2k to open as the default program (or just check "Select All") and press Save
check "Register supported file formats on startup" (optional)
check "Set as the default audio CD player" (optional)
click OK

I'm also wondering. These configurations are perhaps the most optimal for a pleasant binaural sound. I tried a lot of them: VST plug-ins, convolvers, many other different tools for my headphones. Nothing sounds better than laid-back config to me.
