uploaded control 4.23 avx2, think it's better than 4.21, anyway

still ridiculous how much the sound is affected by the code, really need to lose the code and play via hardware.

think 4.23/9.10 hits a sweetspot

sounds mighty fine

am tempted to pop along to Scalford, hear what it sounds like on a proper system.

what do you mean by multiple versions ? hirez ?

I'll try to find time to digest the last few weeks of the thread, I've clearly missed something about how to get current Mqn running. Also I'm not clear whether Haswell is required now.

Clive - check the first post on page 650 to get quick overview of what to do to potentially get it going on your device.

Would be great to meet up. Same story as last year I suppose Pearse (and me) are a bit more battle hardened and know the ropes this time. It would be nice to be able to play the latest version with various hires types so no faffing around just use the one. 24/88, 24/96 covers most stuff. I have some 24/48 and some 24/192. MQn for everything except DSD I might be a bit presumptious maybe Pearse would prefer use VLC!

DSD64 can be handled in 176kHz DOP for sure.
DSD128 can also be done inside 176kHz DOP, but I'm not sure if a different encoding is used. I'm not in the clear about the standard for encoding of DSD128.

DSD256 and higher is done only in native DSD bitstreaming into an ASIO-driver.
