I use JRiver Media player with WASAPI with 192KHz 24bit to get the optimum sound quality.
 
My windows Mixer is set to 44.1KHz 24bit
 
But when I set my xonar to output 192KHz the EQ stops working... infact It only works if I set the Output in Media Player to 48KHz..
 
192KHz in JRiver sounds so much better than 48KHz.. So i wanna keep it as it is. Since i'm using WASAPI I know I'm bypassing the Windows Mixer & directly getting the Sound from the sound card. So why doesnt my Xonar's EQ stops working when ever I chose anything over 48KHz.. this card supports 192KHz right ?
 
what am i doing wrong ?

This is a limitation of the Xonar- page 42 of the manual says any "effects" (which I presume includes EQ) are only available to 44.1 and 48kHz sample rate files.

I wouldn't say it is a limitation as it was designed that way to keep the higer bit rates such as 96 and 196 prestine.
That being said I can see how some might still want to use the EQ.
 
If you want to modify the sound anyway, WASAPI is a moot point so you can always use the EQ in the player.
Not very familiar with that player,but if you can route the signal into VST or Direct X plugins, You can find some very high end software EQ's.

Yup... thanx so much.. It clearly says in the manual that it will shut down all effects for 96 & 192KHz audio files to prevent any processing distortion & it will also shut down the frequency metre on those rates as well
 
thanx for the help..problem solved
