Musiland published yesterday new Beta Drivers V2.0
Changes, fixes and introduces up to 352/384KHz sampling rates for the US 03 ( not available in 01 nor 02 US).

July 27, 2011 Wednesday, Beijing. Music of the state released the latest Monitor Series driver . Thanks MUSILAND Audio Labs latest research, this version of the driver officially supports 32Bit 384kHz, next-generation high-definition audio format. This driver used in the music of the state's new Monitor 03 US, and will support to up to 32Bit 384kHz analog and ( Line and Headphone ) digital output (MULINK). Monitor 03 US become the world's first support for 32Bit 384kHz for audio equipment. Monitor 03 US new drive used on the screenshots: the new drive, the sampling rate is set by the drop-down box, an increase of 352.8kHz and 384kHz sampling rate of two. When the sampling rate is set for this two tranches, the audio device in Windows system properties which will see the instructions corresponding to the sampling rate, and can be tested. This is also verified from the side, bit depth of 32Bit and 352.8kHz and 384kHz sampling rate support for the authenticity of the two. This version of the driver release number: 2.0.0.0_build20110727, in addition to the increase in sample rate support, the former MU-BASS will be upgraded to MU-DSP, the DSP allows the user to set the center frequency can be manually input from 20Hz- any of five frequencies 20kHz processing, the accuracy is improved at the same time, greatly enhance the scope of application. In addition to the new version of the Monitor 03 US-driven and the upcoming release of Monitor 03 PS supports two 352.8kHz and 384kHz sampling rate, other Monitor series of old products, including: Monitor 01 mini , 01 U.S. Monitor, Monitor 01 USD, 02 U.S. Monitor, Monitor 01 PS only supports up to 192kHz, this is because their DAC chip and S / PDIF output can not be greater than 192kHz audio format support. The MU-DSP function , then the whole family can use. Download the new driver:

This drive to add some personal note:
1, all the external USB sound card called the Monitor can use this driver, 01 US, 01 USD, 01 MINI, 02 US, 03 US can not 03 US-specific.
2, version 2.0.0.0, the most to the left of 1, indicating a very big change, and it is past, the program algorithm, code and structure is very different.
3, because of great change, so the first driver in beta, beta folder on the server, we actively encourage the trial, and then speak warmly welcome all comments, suggestions, opinions, comments, etc., of course, the objective of civilization criticism, but do not wish to appear extreme, irrational, uncivilized words. Music of the state will correct the errors we found, to consider and adopt appropriate recommendations based on the actual.
4, objectively speaking, this drive is to enhance the sound quality, because the new algorithm reduces the jitter to optimize the timing, so that the sound signal is more accurate, less distortion, closer to the ideal shape. But this does not mean better for some people to listen, because listening to people's subjective sense of ideas, habits, preferences have a great relationship, some people do not tend to like very realistic sound.
5,32 bit 384kHz only 03 US support, although the DAC chip parameters did not say support, but the overclocking success, unfortunately, limited physical 01,02 DAC chip, overclocking failure, can not support. 03 US only MULINK digital output port 32 384, optical fiber, including 01, 02 coaxial, optical fiber can not do anything, because the audio on the body with a coaxial optical fiber is limited, 32,384 more than the capacity.
6, in order to ensure quality, the new drive system volume (speaker icon in the bottom right corner) and the sound card hardware separate from the main volume, independent regulation, no linkage. ASIO only by the hardware master volume control, the system volume is invalid; use Waveout, DS, KS, WASAPI when both can independently control the volume, the lower right corner there are system-driven interface, volume control, which you can adjust the volume preferences.
Above, if wrong, please Musiland customer criticism and thank you!
