As the natives seem to be getting restless I'm going to take a break.
Sometimes in the heat of the discussion people say things which on further reflection wish they had not.
I'm sure that everyone here is as grateful as I am for the work that you've done getting this great player to the stage that it's @ now.
Maybe one or two people need to reflect a little less on their own wants and more on the good of the group which has worked very well up to now from what I read.
‘’am going to add a couple of seconds silence to the start’’
Thanks again I’ll report back on that.
But maybe some posters may want to use the same approach (add a couple of seconds silence to the start)
Hi Jling
‘’Just tried 7.35 SSE2/3.64/PAv38 and it was magnificent. Difficult to believe it is 16/44.1
The annoying random clicking was absent.
Listened to Dire Straits - Communique which I also happen to have on vinyl. MQn played it just like it would sound (to my ears) on a very good turntable - but better! Unbelievably good.’’
Yes all came good for me also. Just unsurpassed performance.
Thanks for the info on your driver settings which I’m sure will help tweak the sound still further.
Hi Massimo
Hi, I've an XMOS as well (a WaveIO usb->i2s) but I don't suffer any cutoff at the start. Setting in the Thesycon driver is "low latency", if this can help you.
Thanks for the tip which looks like a confirmation of Jonathans findings. I can feel a consensus coming on.
Hi Nigel
‘’I like the lowest latency and buffer settings for the xmos chip
Usually sounds a bit thinner but also more detailed and delicate’’
Yup me to but not much in it between the two lowest settings.
‘’Period size?
Think it affects the alignment thing’’
Sample size as I understand it but I’m not the sharpest pencil in the box when it comes to computers as you’ve probably noticed. I do love to learn which is why I invite corrections.
Like PFM?
No this thread would have been sabotaged not long after first post over there which is why I’m here and it’s great to be having this chat.
