Ok, but why do I and many people hear "jumps" or not so good sound when using 192KHZ? but with 96KHZ seem to be ok?
And SSRC = secret rabbit
Right?

I'm not too sure actually, I think SRC (Single S) = Secret Rabit

But i've not had a single problem here and it's definately resampling at 192kHz. It was a bit stuttery with ASIO's software buffer though, so make sure you are using the Xonar's Harware Buffer. You can't use creatives ASIO by the way...I don't see whats wrong with ASIO4ALL either because it locks the WAVE volume control in the windows mixer so it's definatly true ASIO. The master volume changes the op-amps voltage I think...either way 50% master volume on the Xonar seems to be about line-level when comparing to a Cambridge Audio CD5.

I am using ASUS D2X, what do I need to do? why can't I use 192KHZ ?

 

[HeadLover]

Ok seem like secret rabbit don't like 192KHZ

But SSRC sure does!
So
Put anything to the min (offset on the buffer hardware, and 0 on other things and 64 samples and so on) is the BEST ?
Also
I am using 192KHZ and TOP, and seem fine, how is it?

 

[HeadLover]

oh
and does it 24 bit for sure?

Oh and don't know why, but seem like my PC got stuck when using 192KHZ and I have used TOP quality.

Any way, should I use up sampling at all?

WASAPI, just choose WASAPI as the output in foobar and your done. First you will need to download the component and put it in your Foobar2000 folder. Best part is there are no settings like ASIO4ALL has. Its too easy.

foobar2000 components

 

[HeadLover]

Yep, but how is it?!
Quality ?

 

[HeadLover]

BTW
WASAPI take like 4 mega more of mem, and I am not sure how it does what he does

(no settings doesn't mean that aren't settings)

 

[olblueyez]

Sounds identical to ASIO4ALL and if you download this Latency checker then you will realize it uses less resources than ASIO4ALL. As far as settings, Foobar has some settings and they should work for you. BTW, the part about WASAPI needing 4 megs of memory is BS. 32 bit windows doesn't even recognize 4 gigs of memory. Give it a try, cant hurt right? Oh, forgot one thing, the Foobar2000 Buffer Length (output settings) must be 1000 or less, anymore and you will get shuttering.

Ok
both seem to give me the same latency.
Not?
And I have said that WASAPI take like 4 mega more of mem.

 

[olblueyez]

How much memory do you have in your system Headlover?

WASAPI

ASIO4ALL

Looks the same to me.

Question is, do they sound different? Not to me they dont. Any confusion reguarding the WASAPI settings? Not for me. Resource usage looks the same to me. From what I can tell they are the same except ASIO4ALL has some settings that no one seems to know how to set. I have read all the threads, you get alot of different answers as to the settings. What settings do you use for optical instead or USB,,,,Blah, Blah, Blah, with WASAPI, no settings, no problem.

After messing with settings back and forth for some time I've come to the conclusion that 16 bit and 44.1khz sound way better than upsampling. Upsampling makes songs sound unnatural. Just use the ASIO that's built in to the drivers at 44.1khz\16 bit and you're good to go.

 

[olblueyez]

Up sampling is something you want your hardware to do, assuming you have a nice dac. Bit-perfect is what you want in the software domain.

 

[HeadLover]

Is setting 24 bit in the Foobar2000 output depth is ok?
I don't want up sampling, but sometimes I do have 24 bit and not only 16 bit.

BTW
I have 8GB of mem.

And it seem like WASAPI is working nicely.

 

[olblueyez]

I think that setting is fine as long as your dac functions with it set at 24 bit. May need to change it to 16 bit if you use a USB hook-up though. What OS are you using?
