yes, it sounds very good, just a bit bass light.

mqnplay.exe 2.72 448 mem rel get + raw background

gone back to non rel version, this is the same as the above version, but smoother and better bass. playing a Stanley Clarke album and you would think I've got a tube amp.

am trying to do a 24 bit version, but have a slight hiccup with it at the moment.

Struggled to get any time over the last few weeks but trying 2.71 intel 1024b it is very good(understatement)

But the latest looks promising and the tantalizing hint of 24bit! Will give that a whirl presenting and report back

have cleared out a lot of stuff to archive.

you need the 448 control for this version and win 8.1 or R2

Thanks Gordon downloaded that anyway so played first time. Very airy. Browsed through my music folder and somehow ended up playing Boney M 'gotta go home' as the first test track! Moved to Miles flamingo sketches and this sounds very good.Mellow airy just need to give it a good listen and compare it to other versions.

Also uploaded another version that has a bit more energy, just by moving the position of one instruction in the render loop. Initially discounted this one, but sounds ok.

Should I try these new once on my system, or they still won't work?

can you try playpcmwin and see if it plays with 448 samples/10ms buffer setting, can't think what else the issue is apart from buffer size.

gone back to mqnplay.exe 2.72 448 mem rel get + raw background, nice sound

Non of these two new works. I downloaded playpcmwin, but I can't find those parameters you listed?

Ok I tried Output Latency 10ms, and it was very similar like MQNplay, I changed to 20ms and it worked...
Even 11ms will do it. I just monitored my Dac, and buffer will cross 10ms from time to time. It seems to be that 10ms is just on the edge. I hope this tells you something.

Glad you got it going. the rel get + raw background is excellent. Immediately like it. Not 100% sure about the other one it seems to feather lite but
hate making judgements quickly.
