Singxer SU-1 Owners

I use a MBP so no drivers to install, but why don't you just leaving your SU-1 on 24/7?
EDIT: I'm using macOS High Sierra 10.13.4
Macs using anything OSX 10.6 and above don't require driver downloads.

What do you mean by MBP? How can Windows 10 recognize an external drive, like the SU-1, without installing a specific driver?

MacBook Pro (MBP). I've edited my previous post saying Mac's using OSX 10.6 and beyond don't require driver downloads. I'm using macOS High Sierra 10.13.4 so no driver downloads to deal with.

Amen to that!
I use the sonicorbiter OS (Linux), upsample to DSD512 in Roon and don’t have the faff of Windows 10 drivers and HQ Player. Been there, done that, got frustrated and saw the light. Yes, it could be argued that HQ Player is better sounding, but is it really worth the hassle - and the need for a high spec ‘gaming PC’ to do DSD512 properly?? Good luck to those who do this, but parenthood, time and budget put the brakes on for me!

I've never ever had any problems with that. I am on WS 2016 core.

I think Rob Watts from Chord said Windows 10 is superior to the driverless iOS, Android or Linux systems as they do not guarantee bit perfect data at the DAC when connecting with the USB cable.

If you want to try something really simple with guaranteed support of DSD512 upsampling without the need to install drivers then try Daphile (www.daphile.com). Daphile is a headless self contained Linux based music player which builds on the Logitech Media Server (LMS) and can be loaded on top of an existing OS without destroying any of the content, from a USB stick. IF you like what you hear then there is the option to be permanently installed. And of course it is FREE.

Yes, I noted that and I admit that it did get me thinking. But I like the ‘low maintenance’ side of Linux and the user experience of Roon browsed with an iPad. Also, to my (48 year old) ears, my system doesn’t sound at all broken - far from it in fact.

Check your driver and if necessary reinstall it.

Hello! I, too, asked for the same issue a few page ago, and I was just about to write again for the same reason.

The trouble doesn’t regard the type of driver installed or its version. I think I noticed that, if I don’t turn on the SU-1 at least once a day, the system or the machines lose the memory and the SU-1 is no more recognized although the correct driver is installed. I don’t know what is going on…

Ok I have no idea what's going on, at first I got a message from Windows that the USB device had malfunctioned. Now when I reinstall the drivers the driver window doesn't even show up in the taskbar. Should I reinstall Windows?

Install the new one 4.36
