7.34 sse2 + 3.64 + pa38 not playing
7.35 sse2 + 3.64 + pa38 ok
The latter is really excellent. I'm surprised every time from the improvement.

7.33avx2 with pa37normal crashes on my pc, as usually do any avx/avx2 version (on my pc not avx compliant), while previous sse2 work fine with pa37.

7.33 sse2 doesn't work here as well. Tested pa 27, 32, 34 and 37. No crash, but no output.

Thanks

I use mqnload with ks in the same way, changing the mqnplay name as you said, nothing else.

Did you check if mqnparam.txt is set correctly?
My 8.1 works smoothly with that combination.

I have barely listened to music in the last weeks, so I was still with 5.64 sse2. I just briefly played 1644 6.17 sse2 + 3.61 and it seemed very good. Due to latest ks delivery by sbgk, I tried the most recent 1644 sse2 ks+pa today (7.10+3.64+pa27+mqnparam.txt -at 0 after checking with the .exe-, mq...

I listened the latest sse2 versions (5.07, 5.20, 5.37, 5.51, 5.59, 5.63, 5.64) this afternoon and I agree with you.
5.64 1644 sse2 (+3.61 512) is really good. I think it's the best 1644 sse2 so far and my new reference, great detail and no harshness, full and rich sound. Coherent, nothing wrong.

sse2 only from 4.82 to 4.87

4.82 256 < 4.82 256 128 nop < 4.83 256 64 nop =< 4.87

all with 3.61 512 control

It seems to me that the differences amongst these versions are quite subtle. All are very good.
4.87 is my choice at the moment.
Not listened 4.96 yet.

uploaded 4.83 sse2, how does it compare ? also uploaded a modified 2.82 avx/sse2 256 128 nop I'll do tomorrow afternoon (CET) Did anyone participate to archimago 16/24bit survey? http://archimago.blogspot.ca/2014/06/24-bit-vs-16-bit-audio-test-part-ii.html interesting results I download the tracks ...

Listened to latest sse2 versions (I cannot play avx). My preferred version evolved in the last weeks from 3.56 + 1.6 -> 4.22 512 + 3.61 -> 4.48 512 + 3.61 -> 4.74 256 + 3.61. I'm listening 4.82 256 + 3.61 right now and it's stunning. I'm playing clarinet+accordion duo albums (Mirabassi + Galliano or...
