Hi everyone
So I'm usign an Audio-GD dac as part of my rig. It is connected via USB to my sound card and, as expected, I cannot change the volume of what is playing from Window's volume button in the system tray.
What I don't understand is why I can do this from various flash players: youtube, soundcloud, itunes etc.
If it all goes digital out of the sound card and into the dac, why is it possible to adjust the volume from say iTunes's volume button?
