How do you guys have the settings setup for the Essence One so far? Are you upsampling everything to 192hz/24bit, bit perfect, or just sticking to 44.1hz/16bit?
I don't have any high resolution files. All my music is pretty much 16 bit, 44.1hz. Do you recommend I upsample or leave it here?
Ok so from what I understand so far.
Using foobar - play all lossless (which will be 44.1khz/16bit) leave windows playback settings at 44.1khz/16bit and make sure you use the Asus essence ASIO driver.
only issue is - this only works on USB, cant get it working on SPDIF.
So basically you will see bit perfect and 44.1khz light on... then press the upsample on the asus.. this will use the asus upsampler to get 352.8KHz via hardware n not using software upsamplers.
If anyone figures out how to run ASIO via SPDIF using the essence one let me know (im hoping i wont have to use the asio4all stuff, cause asus has its own asio driver)
Also if anyone knows what to set the usb asio driver settings to (16/24/32bit and what latency (10ms-80ms)?
The other option is, use WASAPI SPDIF, can someone confirm that using WASAPI and ASIO is the same? cause it sounds different when i test it, I just cant tell if im just bsh*tting myself or not.
