Could you do V6 200000, please?sbgk wrote:have uploaded v6 sse4 24 bit version, sounds good, but again avx is tighter and more controlled.

Re: MQN
you should be able to play 16/24 44 and 48 using mqncontrol hirez v1 as they have 200000 periods. Shall do the other versions in a few days time in case there are any other changes.cvrle59 wrote:Could you do V6 200000, please?sbgk wrote:have uploaded v6 sse4 24 bit version, sounds good, but again avx is tighter and more controlled.

The combination mqncontrol hirez v1 with version 6 sounds wonderfully. I can play only 16/44 24/44 24/48. 88/96/192 files doesn't sound well, crackles.
Is it somehow possible to use mqn higres on a sse2 computer?
Re: MQN
yes, think it just uses sse2 instructions now. shall rename it.DJ le Roi wrote:

crackling due to small period size. 200000 version will fix it.
Re: MQN
AVX2 SOUNDS REALLY GOOD
CAN A 448 VERSION BE DONE FOR A DIRECT COMPARISON?
COULD ONLY PLAY 16/44 THOUGH

I'm a MQn user since a couple of months. I usually run mqnplay.exe 2.73 448 intel raw background, mqncontrol 2.71 448 10 and mqnload on a 8.1Pro-64 Atom D2700 based platform (AsRock AD2700-ITX) into a WaveIO (2.15) board.
It replaced foobar on redbook cause it delivers much greater satisfaction in terms of listening enjoyment. It has been a startling revelation from the beginning. Every element of musical reproduction has improved a lot.
I've just tested sse2 hirez version this morning and it works associated with mqncontrol v1 on every bit/sample pair up to 24/192. With mqncontrol v1 200000, mqnplay stops (with associated popup window "mqnplay.exe has stopped working") in a few seconds with 24/88, 24/96, 24/176 and 24/192 tracks, 44 and 48 rates are ok (both 16 and 24).
All sse4 and avx don't work on my system (not compliant).
My test has not been a listening test, just with scope at the dac output. Listening test to come.
I want to add my thanks to sbgk for this great player.
