I haven't had any problems controling the volume from within windows with or without asio, even when it says beyond logic. The only application is when foobar is set to use aiso and you dont have the resampler set then there is no sound.

I use the Trends UD-10 unit. I also use the USB-AUDIO ASIO driver with no problems.Foobar and Winamp are the players I use the most. You can access the USB-AUDIO panel through Winamp's Output devices in preferences. Make your changes from there. It will effect Foobar as well. I can get 44.1 or 48 khz
output from the Trends UD-10 just from upsampling through foobar.

The USB-Audio control panel recognizes the change and shows it in its own control panel. I've also used ASIO4ALL and the kernal streaming. Nothing sounds as good as the USB-AUDIO ASIO IMHO.

The others still seem to use the Kmixer, unlike the USB-AUDIO which bypasses the window audio.sys..Be warned.. It will lock out all volume controls and any other audio associated with windows.

How much is the usb-asio?

 

[GHM]

Here's the site http://www.usb-audio.com/. It cost me around $65 USD. That price varies since the American dollar has been crappy lately. There's a demo version that you can download to see if the program will work with your system. By the way, anyone else using their UD-10 with a external linear power supply?

High-Q and Ultraviolet,

How long does it take to get it shipped? My UD-10 was shipped out Feb 22 (airmail option) and I still didn't see it yet.

Thanks,

After I installed foobar and Asio4all everything worked just fine. The signal goes from laptop to ud-10 to zhaolu (coax) and then into my pre-amp/power-amp speaker rig. When I follow the same steps you describe I also get the red Beyond Logic logo, but I still have sound and I can still see everything is running in 44.100hz.

Does anyone know if the optical on UD-10 is in or out? I am assuming out as I couldnt get sound going digital out from my extigy to the UD-10

The documentation says that it is an optical out.

of course it's digital OUT

only IN is the USB..... hence USB transport...

Couldn't hurt to try

Does anyone have the instructions for charging the battery pack?

Do you charge the rechargable battery pack with the supplied AC Adapter?
Does the power switch have to be ON to charge?

Thanks

Yes, to both - use the ac adapter to charge the battery pack, and it must be switched ON to charge. When charged the led will change from RED to GREEN, at which point you turn the switch OFF.

Windows Direct Sound be bit perfect? Are you guys serious? Can anyone explain it a bit?

that's what i do.... except i don't bother touching the switch... it's always ON (i'd think the charger is smart enough to STOP charging once it's full, hence the changing colours of the LED)

it seems like sound through the USB goes through a different DLL (or what not) because i'm able to playback 44.1kHz DTS WAV by selecting "DS : USB Audio DAC" (which is direct sound: trends ud-10) to my receiver



i've gotta ton of 44.1kHz DTS/AC3 files, and they all work perfectly in directsound (i was surprised too, since i've always thought KS/ASIO was needed to bypass the kmixer)

Thanks. Sort of a dummy question but I plugged the ac adapter to the battery pack and the ac adapter led is GREEN already. I assume the battery pack is charged then (but the battery is new).

Once I plug the battery pack to the DC in on the UD-10, the blue light doesnt light up anymore. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Hi Happyhifibasten,

I ordered my UD-10 in the Netherlands. www.crafty.nl used to be a trends audio dealer, but he stopped doing business with the chinese supplier I think. He still had some in stock, so I got it the next day
